Is it better to be a Beiber or a Esperanza Spalding?

How much is the music industry like the legal industry? There is a lot of talk around the legal industry about finding your specialty. I would argue in the music industry that the superstars are those that can escape blending into any specific category and become a name unto themselves. Using last night's award show as a metaphor for your career, do you think an attorney has a better chance of long term success focusing their aspirations on becoming a superstar like Beiber by building a name for themselves in the industry through diversifying efforts in a way that impacts more than just a target audience - great examples might be Roy Black with his Black's Ball and TV celebrity and John Kozyak with his countless efforts to give back including his minority picnic or working late nights focusing your craft in a specific genre (practice area) like Spalding? Who would be a great example of a Spalding in our industry, someone who is at the top of their game in a specific practice area, doesn't get their name out there in other ways, but deserves an award for being the best at their craft?

We do our best to provide accurate, updated information to you. Please understand that this information is collected from multiple sources and it is recommended that you contact theorganizations listed for the most up-to-date event details.  Thank you to all who contributed to this calendar.   The Dan Marino Foundation WalkAbout Autism will be held January 29th 2011 in the Sun Life Stadium in Miami FL. This is a great opportunity for the legal community to work together and make a difference for children, teens, and adults on the spectrum. The proceeds will support local South Florida organizations: UM-NSU and FAU Centers for Autism and Related Disabilities, the Autism Societies of Broward and Miami-Dade Counties and the Dan Marino Foundation to provide services to the autism community. All the money raised here stays here. This is huge! I am participating in the Dan Marino Foundation WalkAbout Autism because I am the parent of a child with autism and to help my friends and relatives in the community who are touched by autism. I encourage you to join our team and help raise funds in your firm, your personal contacts and across the legal community. If you join our team or create your own please let me know by emailing jcoller@veritext.com so that I can add a link to your personal fundraising page in our Legal Community Update Newsletter. This will help encourage others to do the same. If you don't have the time to promote your own fundraiser then I ask you to give a minimum of $25 and add your name to our cause by visiting: http://support.danmarinofoundation.org/goto/LegalCommunity Help me help my community. Help me make a difference! Thank you, -Josh     LEGAL EVENTS
