Personally Speaking . . .
(This is the autobiography I mentioned earlier)
For 25 years I was what John Grisham might call ‘a
street lawyer.’ When I began law practice, the law
was still relatively easy (this lasted until sometime
around 1986, when everything became complicated
beyond imagination).
I built my law practice in a unique way: singing in
nightclubs at night (and passing out business cards at
the breaks).
Let me as you: what better place to meet people who
need an attorney?
The Denver Post and Rocky Mountain News
thought a lawyer performing in bars
nightclubs was newsworthy I guess.
They did articles about me:
“The Singing Attorney,” and “The Court Jester.”
These were positive, human interest articles
giving me fantastic free publicity. It was great!
They also said I had "a Glenn Yarbrough sound,
and a John Denver delivery."
I took this as a huge compliment!
