Relationship: Co-worker

"Jim & I met nearly 20 years ago when we both worked for the State of Nevada. He impressed me as being remarkably well organized and prepared. Over the decades, I have grown to respect his trial expertise, as he is the only guy I know who has argued before the US Supreme Court."
