Within hours of each other, two things happened that changed Coleman Cowan's life. While waiting to take a deposition as a young associate, he realized that his reward for working hard would be more hard work. Hours later, while leaving that deposition, he was shot in a random mugging. Despite colleagues calling him “crazy,” Coleman left law to pursue journalism, eventually becoming an Emmy-winning producer for “60 Minutes.” In this conversation with host Amber Nimocks, he discusses his journey from North Carolina courtrooms to war zones around the world and back to North Carolina, where he now leads the litigation section at the Law Offices of James Scott Farrin. Coleman also previews his upcoming presentation at NCAJ's Strategy Summit. Called “To Live, Not Exist: What Our Experiences Can Teach Us About Managing Stress and Anxiety,” his program will be on Oct. 23, the first day of the two-day summit.

In this week's Legal Speak episode, we're kicking off a series where we get to know litigators outside the courtroom through their hobbies. With Texas Lawyer litigation reporter Laura Lorek at the helm, we're sharing inside feedback about what litigators love, starting with Dallas-based commercial litigator Tom Walsh of Winston & Strawn. In addition to litigating, Walsh has spent 27 years as a radio play-by-play announcer for Jesuit College preparatory school football and more than three years has performed in community theater with his daughter. In his one-on-one with Laura, he'll break down why he finds it important for legal professionals with high-pressure jobs to maintain hobbies.

Kannon Shanmugam is a partner at the law firm Paul Weiss and has argued 39 cases before the Supreme Court, representing clients such as Goldman Sachs, ExxonMobil, Meta, Warner Music, Bank of America, Coinbase, and the NFL, among others. Kannon has also argued more than 150 appeals in courts across the country, including all 13 federal courts of appeals. A longtime Supreme Court reporter said that Kannon has “perhaps the most eloquent and elegant manner … that I've ever seen in my 40 years covering the Court." Legal 500 called Kannon "a brilliant lawyer and tactician, with impeccable judgment and an optimal moral compass." It added, “you won't find a more talented, sophisticated, compelling lawyer—and he matches that with his overall humility and kind nature.” Before entering private practice, Kannon served as an Assistant to the Solicitor General at the U.S. Department of Justice and as a law clerk to Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. Kannon earned his undergraduate degree from Harvard, was a Marshall Scholar at the University of Oxford, and then returned to Harvard for his Law degree. In this episode we discuss the following: As Judge Sack told Kannon, all you can do in a career is stand by the hoop and hope that somebody passes you the ball. There's no substitute for hard work. At the top levels, everyone has great credentials. But what differentiates the very best people is they put in the work, in a profession where there are no shortcuts. Surround yourself with great people, including great mentors. But not just older people. Kannon devoted a lot of time to finding the most talented young attorneys who were driven, smart, and enthusiastic. Enthusiasm is one of the most important things Kannon looks for when identifying talented people: enthusiasm to work, enthusiasm to grow, and enthusiasm to learn. If you love what you do, it's easy to get out of bed in the morning and keep doing it.

Because that's something that you're preparing this generation of leaders to tackle. 30:41: [Lee Ann Butler]: Well, I think the ethical challenges come every day, and probably the most difficult bit is when we just don't realize it's an ethical dilemma that's in front of us, right? And we tend to think of ourselves—everyone thinks of themselves as an ethical person: I don't need to worry about this because I'm a good person, and I will do the right thing. But when we take the time to actually systematically go through it in a logical way, I think not only what does my ethical framework tell me is right and wrong in the situation, but how might others view it? 'Cause not everyone—not everyone has the same framework as me or anyone else.Surprising lessons learned from being educators at Rice13:38 [Alex Butler] Several years ago, we ran an experimental course where faculty from four different functional areas got together, all of whom were going to teach their discipline, but along the theme of decision-making. And so we had someone from one group who's going to think about decision-making in teams, one-person decision-making, as students as far as how personal-psychological biases affect your decisions. One person doing game theory and I doing decision-making with data, so I learned a few things in that, one of which was. What a great place to work where someone can have this bonkers idea of let's come at decision-making from four different ways, all of us with our own strange perspectives, and deliver that as a course to the students and have the administration be like, yeah, man, let's do that. That sounds awesome.What makes Rice special from an educator's perspective08:35: It comes down to A: the students, right? That is my interaction. Most of the time, they are phenomenal. They are here to learn, and they have that kind of hunger that's amazing. I really enjoy teaching in the MBA program because they come with so much work experience, and I learn something every single class that I teach. Hopefully, they learn a lot from me, but I am absolutely learning a lot from them each time, too. But we also have wonderful support and administration here, which is not always the case at every school. But we have the whole package, which is just a joy to work here.Show Links: TranscriptGuest Profiles:Lee Ann E.

Hello to you listening in Buenos Aires, Argentina!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga.Willy Claflin is one of the most clever, insightful storytellers I know. He was a remarkable teacher. Here's what he said about the "power of the pause" to create the very best stories:“When I told stories I would just rocket along to the end! But one day I taught a workshop in Texas. A woman wrote a story which began with this sentence: "Snake wanted to learn to play canasta. Only she didn't say, "snakewantedtolearntoplaycanasta!" She said, "Sssssnnnnnaaaake  . . . . . . . wanteeeddddddd ........to learrrrrrrrnnnnn .   . . . . . . . . .to plaaaaaaaayyyyyy .  . . . . . . . canasssssssstaaaaaa." It must have taken her 20 seconds.I had time to see Snake's desire, the deck of cards, and realize the problems Snake might have holding or dealing the cards. I began to dwell on the spaces - between the words - and eventually - to connect the empty space with the silence of meditation. I came to understand that inviting silence into stories created an opportunity for teller and listeners to rest, live and breathe inside the story. Instead of rocketing along to the end we would sit - quietly - inhabit the world of the story - together.”Practical Tip: As a speaker, litigator, podcaster, or platform teller use the Power of the Pause to invite your audience into the story you are telling them! That's the world you'll inhabit together. That's where the call to action takes place.  You're always invited: “Come for the stories - stay for the magic!” Speaking of magic, would you subscribe and spread the word with a generous 5-star review and comment - it helps us all - and join us next time!Meanwhile, stop by my Quarter Moon Story Arts website to:✓ Check out Services I Offer✓ For a no-obligation conversation about your communication challenges, get in touch with me today✓ Stay current with me as “Wyzga on Words” on Substack and on LinkedInStories From Women Who Walk Production TeamPodcaster: Diane F Wyzga & Quarter Moon Story ArtsMusic: Mer's Waltz from Crossing the Waters by Steve Schuch & Night Heron MusicAll content and image © 2019 to Present Quarter Moon Story Arts.

Craig Lavoie is a trial lawyer and litigation partner who has been recognized as one of the leading litigators in America, and as a top lawyer under 40. Craig served as trial counsel for Vanessa Bryant in her landmark civil rights victory against the LA County Sheriff's and Fire Departments for their improper photos of the victims of the helicopter crash that killed Kobe Bryant, Gianna Bryant, and seven others.  Following Craig's closing argument, the jury delivered a verdict in favor of Vanessa Bryant and awarded her and a co-plaintiff $30 million in damages for their emotional distress. Other significant representations for Craig include: Lead counsel for Berkshire Hathaway in a billion-dollar dispute with Pilot Corporation  The LA Clippers in litigation against Madison Square Garden Company Hume Street Management Consultants—a world-renowned developer of luxury hotels—against members of the Qatari royal family—including the former emir of Qatar and a former prime minister of Qatar. In this episode we discuss the following: Litigation is like the debate Olympics. It's a team sport. It's often irrational to take cases to trial. And there's nothing like giving a closing argument. The case Craig is most proud of, defending Vanessa Bryant, the widow of Kobe Bryant, in her landmark civil rights case. Craig's advice about authenticity. He doesn't try to act how he thinks a trial attorney should act. He doesn't try to impress the jurors. Rather, he tries to connect with them by being himself and conveying information clearly.

Some really important things are happening in the world of women's health and reproductive rights. In case you weren't aware or if you've heard of EMTALA and the case that is with the Supreme Court coming out of Idaho, I wanted to bring on an expert to explain what is happening and what it could mean for health care providers in the future.  Alexa is a deputy director at the ACLU reproductive freedom project located in New York City. For almost 20 years, Alexa has been litigating in states across the country, including at the US Supreme Court to protect and expand access to abortion and other forms of reproductive health care. A number of those cases have concerned EMTALA, the federal law that guarantees hospitals provide abortions to pregnant patients facing a medical emergency.  Alexa decided when she was 15 that she wanted to be an ACLU lawyer. Since graduating college, she has essentially never worked anywhere else. She started as an assistant paralegal doing racial justice, First Amendment and national security work one week after 911. Then she went to law school and came straight back during college and law school she was always involved in abortion rights advocacy, and when a fellowship opened up at the ACLU reproductive freedom project in 2007. She applied and has been there ever since. In this episode, we discuss:  The background and history of EMTALA. How and why it was started. The recent case in Idaho that went to the Supreme Court. What the future of reproductive rights would look like for patients and providers if the court sides with Idaho Resources: Amicus brief: The ACLU, ACLU of Idaho and law firm Cooley LLP filed an amicus brief with the United States Supreme Court to explain that Idaho's arguments cannot be justified.https://www.aclu.org/press-releases/aclu-brief-in-emergency-abortion-care-case-highlights-idaho-politicians-deeply-flawed-legal-arguments TIME: What Blocking Emergency Abortion Care in Idaho Means for Doctors Like Me: An op-ed by Dr. Caitlin Gustafson, a family physician in Mccall, Idaho, and the co-president of the Idaho Coalition for Safe Healthcare.https://time.com/6968774/idaho-abortion-doctors-essay/ ACLU: Supreme Court to Determine Whether Politicians Can Deny Medical Emergency Medical Care to Pregnant People: A press release from the ACLU on the United States Supreme Court hearing oral arguments in Idaho and Moyle, et al. v. United States.https://www.aclu.org/press-releases/supreme-court-to-determine-whether-politicians-can-deny-emergency-medical-care-to-pregnant-people Questions:  What is the background/history of EMTALA? This act started with protecting pregnant people; how did we get here? Since the Supreme Court took this case, Idaho has been allowed to prevent doctors from providing emergency abortion care, which has long been protected under EMTALA. Can you talk about the effects this has had on people in Idaho? What are the possible outcomes of this Supreme Court case? Who would be impacted the most? Will this impact states outside of Idaho? What threats does this case pose to medical professionals who are trying to provide care — alongside those trying to build their families? There is also a Supreme Court case before the justices on access to mifepristone — a pill used for medication abortion and miscarriage care. How will this impact reproductive health care, and are there other federal threats looming? Disclaimer: This podcast does not provide medical advice.

We return to our series profiling leading litigators and business builders with guest Paula Hinton, a litigation partner and executive committee member with international firm Winston & Strawn. She's held numerous leadership positions, is recognized across the profession, and handles a variety of complex cases. And she did it her way. “It starts with taking people out to breakfast!” Growing up the daughter of a respected small-town attorney in Alabama, Hinton jokes that she was “Scout” to a real-life Atticus Finch of the novel To Kill a Mockingbird. Hinton learned at a young age the trust clients place in their attorneys and the duty attorneys have to serve clients and the community, in and out of the courthouse. Hinton's path took her from a small town to big city firms with international clients. Entering an area of the law that at the time featured few women, Hinton made her own way, walking into senior attorneys' offices and volunteering for the toughest cases. In an era before the phrase “work/life balance,” she learned to manage the demands of high stakes law in balance with her personal life. Throughout, Hinton strove to raise her profile, develop a strong reputation, and build and sustain business relationships through involvement in nonprofit and association work and by making herself available to senior firm members for complex cases. “Don't wait for them to find you, you go find them,” she says. Hear first-hand Hinton's tips for building a high-profile career in litigation, leveraging both corporate and American Bar Association relationships, and building on each previous step.
