(July 6) – Jeff Walker was working late in his Addison office in 1999, listening to the fireworks of Kaboomtown as he searched volumes of Virginia Administrative Code.

As general counsel of Phones For All, Walker needed to find a way for his company to offer phone service to residents in Virginia. The problem was the amount Phones For All charged exceeded the price caps for regulated telecom service.
