Last Friday, March 27th, we hosted a panel discussion for the Dallas Association of Young Lawyers at the Dallas Bar Association's BELO Mansion. The panel included Camille Corbin of American Airlines, Zach Garsek of Zale Corp., Clayton E. Greenberg of Title Resources Guaranty Company, Michael Li of Ryan and Company, and Kenya S. Woodruff of Parkland Health & Hospital System. Mike Coles of our firm moderated the panel discussion.
The discussion was designed to provide young lawyers with insight and information about how to establish and improve relationships with in-house lawyers. Topics included business development, billing practices and pet peeves, and client service. As a cautionary note for young lawyers, the panelists noted that while extravagant gifts and tickets to sporting events were certainly nice, most in-house counsel recognize these items lead to unnecessarily high billing rates. Certainly something important to keep in mind!
