Lawyers in the Blogosphere; Bankruptcy and Corporate Law
Steve Jakubowski of Chicago's Coleman Law Firm, a nationally prominent bankruptcy lawyer and creator of the Bankruptcy Litigation Blog, was the first lawyer, that I am aware of, to create a blog focused on bankruptcy law. In a post yesterday on his widely-read blog, he provides an overview of several blogs started by lawyers over the last 2 years or so. As part of that overview, he was exceedingly kind to include a reference to many of the blog posts that I have done on this blog over the last two years as they relate to the intersection of bankruptcy and Delaware corporate law.
Here is the link to his post describing some of my posts over the last two years.
Steve establishes the standard that others should follow, not only for a first class blog, but also for the highest level of personal and professional excellence that he maintains. I am fortunate to count him as a friend.
Francis,
In preparing my eulogy to my mom -- of blessed memory -- following her passing last August, I listened for the first time to a 2 hour tape of her 1996 interview with Steven Spielberg's Shoah foundation where she shared for the first and last time details of her wartime experiences that she had kept silently buried within her for over 50 years. On it, I learned that on January 26, 1945, she survived -- barely -- a hellish "death march" from Auschwitz to Bergen Belzen in bitter cold, snowy weather. January 26, therefore, now carries for me a great significance, so your most kind words today are especially significant to me, and I thank you for them from the bottom of my heart.
Best regards,
Steve
