• I think that one of the primary roles of an attorney, and certainly we try to teach it here to our students, is that you counsel compliance with the law.

A different shape, a different flavor, a different purpose, etc. Now, despite all these differences, each French fry in the batch will share a similar origin story.

Some of us will be salty, some of us will be peppered, but in the end we are all just trying to catch up.
