Discussion topics include: Who has had the biggest impact on how you practice law? How and why? It can be someone who inspired you to be better or someone who made you realize you did not want to practice a certain way. For the more experienced attorneys, please share what you think distinguishes a good attorney from a great attorney, and the biggest mistakes you see young attorneys making. We would also love to hear some things you wish you had learned early on in your career.
