The Strip, Sunset Boulevard, West Hollywood. As the fictional movie character John Milton said, law done right is a “backstage pass to the world.” We’ve a client doing good things in Africa with an office here. How many lawyers have a practice with client meetings two blocks from the Viper Room and The Whiskey? Probably quite a few. But I grew up in the Midwest–where TGIF restaurants are considered to be pretty wild, and it’s eccentric to wear a trench coat and tasseled loafers on the same day. So this kind of meeting venue may be my notion of gratitude.
