I can’t think of a more up-tempo, gracious and good-humored person than attorney Will League. On top of that, Will is a talented, tenacious and highly respected partner with the law firm of Siniard, Timberlake and League. Will and his firm practice personal injury law throughout the state of Alabama and have been doing so for many, many years. By the way, you can hear Will’s law partner, Tommy Siniard, on episode 3 of the Next Lawyer Up podcast. What really impresses me about Will is his strong grasp of several areas of law and legal concepts, even though he may not practice in those particular areas. This is a skill that Will puts to good use as host of Sunday night’s long-standing “LawCall” show on ABC channel 31 at 10:30pm. Will’s legal representation is eagerly sought and, when you listen to this podcast, you’ll understand why. He is AV rated by Martindale Hubbell and has also been selected as a Best Lawyer in America. It is always good to catch up with Will. I enjoyed our time together on this podcast.
**I recorded this podcast with Will right before the world changed. With the everyday stress and pressure that all of us are feeling, I thought this might be a good time to post this podcast as a diversion for those who need it. Thanks for listening, stay safe and God bless.

Attorney Joe King is the managing partner of the highly regarded and long-standing law firm of Morris, King and Hodge. By the way, you can also hear about Joe’s partner, Harvey Morris, at the Next Lawyer Up podcast, episode 22. Joe also happens to by my “neighbor,” as his office is located across the street from mine on Pratt Avenue in Huntsville’s historic “Five Points” district. The Morris, King and Hodge building is a bit older than ours, as it was built in 1835. It is referred to as the “Old Clemens House” and it was the home of pre-civil war senator, Jeremiah Clemens, who also happened to be a first cousin to Mark Twain. Very well-respected in the legal community, Joe has a bunch of accolades to his name including Best Lawyers, Super Lawyers and he is also AV rated by Martindale-Hubbell. I hadn’t talked to Joe in awhile (our close proximity notwithstanding!) so it was good to catch up with him on this episode.

Alternative Rock music became popular in the 1980’s as an “alternative” to mainstream or commercial rock. Fans of this genre are likely familiar with the music of bands like REM and 10,000 Maniacs. Perhaps not quite as prominent, but in my opinion just as good, was a band by the name Blake Babies whose name came from the beat poet, Allen Ginsburg. John Strohm was a co-founder and guitarist in Blake Babies. He also was a member of Antenna and the Lemonheads, in addition to having a solo career. So why is John featured on the Next Lawyer Up podcast? Taking his musical career as far as he cared to, John migrated to Birmingham, Alabama and finished college at UAB and then, looking for a career path, he attended Cumberland School of Law at Samford University. He did well there and served as Editor in Chief of the Cumberland Law Review. John then worked for a period of time in Birmingham but, never far from music. He then started a music law practice that culminated in him working for the entertainment law firm of Loeb and Loeb in their Nashville office. John has kept music close to his heart and now serves as president of Rounder Records. If you see a Blake Babies reunion date near you, please go! I promise that you will like this music! Two of my favorites include Temptation Eyes and Out There. You’ll really enjoy this podcast if you listen to and watch the videos of some of his songs first.
If you read or hear about a case alleging a violation of civil rights or civil liberties anywhere in the State of Alabama, chances are good that attorney Hank Sherrod is involved with the lawsuit. Hank’s office is located in Florence, Alabama but he handles civil rights, employment law and jail death cases throughout Alabama. Hank graduated with high honors from Birmingham-Southern College and then attended Vanderbilt University Law School where he served on the Vanderbilt Law Review and Order of the Coif. He is also a graduate of the Trial Lawyers College founded by legendary trial lawyer Gerry Spence. Following law school, Hank moved to Texas and worked there for a while before settling in Florence where he started a law practice that has allowed him to focus on the areas of law that he is really passionate about. Hank is a founding board member of the Alabama affiliate of the National Employment Lawyers Association and has served as its President. He has served on the board of the ACLU of Alabama since 2005 and currently serves on the Legal Committee. I have talked to Hank over the phone on a number of occasions over the years but this is the first opportunity that I have had to sit down with him face to face and learn about his story.
