Ten Things General Counsel Need to Know: How to Delegate – The Essentials

Most lawyers suck at delegating, primarily because no one ever taught us how to delegate. They just told us to delegate, which is about as helpful as telling us to invent rocket fuel.

  • Bar None Celebrates 40 Years of Scholarship Fundraising and Building Community in Dallas - Martha Hardwick Hofmeister was a freshly minted lawyer and new to Dallas when she joined the Dallas Bar Association because, she recalled, “I thought that’s what you were supposed to do when you’re a lawyer.”

    She joined the association’s entertainment committee and had to miss a meeting. She got a letter shortly thereafter appointing her director of a new project, a show without a lot of structure, that would raise funds for the newly established Sarah T. Hughes Diversity Scholarship.

    Four decades later, Hofmeister is still the director of that production. Bar None, a lawyer-written and lawyer-performed musical comedy, has raised more than $2.5 million for full-ride law school scholarships. Over the years, the cast and crew have cultivated a Bar None family that has celebrated cast members who marry and have children and have rallied together in the hard times, including the loss of teammates.
