I have known of attorney Mark Zaid by reputation for many years, given my own security clearance practice. I recently ran across Mark’s name again in the July/August 2023 issue of the Washington Lawyer Magazine which gets distributed to all DC bar members. The article was titled “Keeping Up with Pioneers in Evolving Practices” and it discussed Mark’s work over the years. His law practice, based in Washington, DC, has included representing the families of victims of the 1988 terrorist bombing of Pan Am Flight 103. He has a broad practice to include representing government whistleblowers and intelligence community members with security clearance issues. He has a website to help whistleblowers. We also discussed his Freedom of Information/Privacy Act practice on this episode of the podcast. As you’ll hear, Mark has an affable and engaging personality and it is no wonder that he appears on various news programs as an expert commentator on a very regular basis! I think you’ll like hearing his story on this episode of the podcast.
Robert Lockwood is a well-known and highly respected attorney in Alabama. He practiced with a large Huntsville law firm for over 25 years before deciding to go out on his own earlier this year. You can find Robert’s information at his two websites, LockwoodLawyers.com and EmployingAlabama.com As I mentioned to Robert on the podcast, I don't know where he found the time, between his law practice and other commitments, to do all of the outside work that he has done. He is the past president of several organizations to include the Huntsville-Madison County Bar Association, the Madison County Volunteer Lawyers Program and the Huntsville Rotary club, among other organizations he has worked with and for. He also served for a long time and continues to work presently as member of the Alabama Board of Law examiners. As you'll hear on the podcast, Robert is looking forward to the next chapter of his legal career. I think you will enjoy hearing his story.
Joe Milowic is the director of well-being and serves as of counsel for Quinn Emanuel. He has previously been selected as a New York Super Lawyer in Intellectual Property and he was also chosen as a Global Fellow by the Federal Circuit Bar Association in recognition of his commitment to leadership and cooperation in the global legal community. I first learned about Joe from the July/August 2023 issue of the Washington Lawyer Magazine which gets distributed to all DC bar members. The article was titled “The Power of Vulnerability” and it discussed the Lawyers Depression Project which was co-founded by Joe. I enjoyed getting to know Joe’s story on this episode of the podcast and learning about the very important work that he is doing for the legal profession.
