The only event I never wanted to organize involved the incredible, the wonderful, Dominick Dunne. Otherwise...efforts on behalf of my clients have resulted in the following:
Civil Court:
1. Print and television coverage involving an out-of-town attorney who was suffering from being "home-towned" in a case outside his normal geographic practice area. His win against a local Catholic institution resulted in coverage in both towns; and a new client with a similar problem, just two weeks later.
Family-to-Criminal Court:
2. Televised pre-trial publicity surrounding the arrest of a pedophile attempting to make child porn movies, resulted in a plea change from "Not Guilty" to "Guilty." Although the police had physical evidence, three small children were spared from testifying.
(Additionally, the mother finally was able to gain full custody after years of "supervised visitation.")
Possible Elder Financial abuse:
3. An Emergency room doctor used hospital records to track down and befriend a recent widow. He visited her at her residence and, after befriending her, became her doctor. After her death several years later it was discovered she had revised her will throughout the ensuring years, to his financial benefit. After an ABC news feature, the State Medical Board began an investigation.

Criminal Court:
9. Provided one DA a "meta-tag" lesson used in the prosecution of a former attorney for the unauthorized practice of law, in addition to a list of nineteen additional victims. Former attorney was sentenced to significant prison time.
10. Hours before sentencing in a criminal case we discovered the defendant had altered a letter of recommendation written by a highly respected businessman in the community to the judge. The alternation completely changed the meaning of the letter. Our efforts on behalf of the respected individual, exposed the defendant's actions, and prevented injury to the innocent individual's reputation.
