Richard Robinson bravely posted his 2010 vs. 2022 profile pics and I promised myself I would step up. I have been coasting on my 2008 headshot for WAYYY too long. I was dodging a request for a ‘hi-res’ headshot for my recent Veritas Live! Session with Irfan Shuttari. Richard’s post made me grab my camera and ask my fabulous partner Lauren to take some [...]
Doug Austin & eDiscovery Today Many years ago, Doug Austin and I worked several corporate and criminal defense matters together. I was happy to see Doug launch eDiscoveryToday.com during all the Pandemic chaos.
