Before we get to the Court, a little bit more about me. (It's always about me.) I work for the law firm of Cox Padmore Skolnik & Shakarchy LLP. As far as litigation is concerned, we have a general commercial practice though we dabble in other areas, and I am getting involved in special education law. I just got back from what I call special ed boot camp (but others call the COPAA conference) where I learned a great deal about an area of law of which I previously had little knowledge. I joined COPAA's amicus brief committee, so I hope to be merging my interest in appellate advocacy with this new practice area.
