section update Construction Law Section By Herbert H. Gray, III Ragsdale, Beals, Seigler, Patterson & Gray, LLP [email protected] T he Construction Law Section Board has already been active this Bar year. We have scheduled a number of speakers for the 2014-2015 Section breakfasts, but are still looking for a couple more. If you have any suggestions as to topics or possible speakers, please let me (or another member of the Board) know. Section Chair-Elect Damon Gunnels will be editing the Section newsletter this year. I am certain that Damon will appreciate any help that folks are willing to give. If you are interested in writing a case note or an article, please give Damon a call or drop him an email. Also, according to the last report, a number of folks have not yet renewed their Section memberships. If you haven’t done so, please take a few minutes to re-up! Enjoy the rest of the summer - I look forward to seeing you at our first meeting in September! Find people worthy of the name on the door. That was my mentor’s advice. But the landscape has changed over the last few years. Profits are harder earned and have to be more wisely spent. So I’m getting help to ensure we’re always healthy enough to attract and retain top talent. After all, it might as well be my name on the door. WE SHINE WHEN WE HOLD OURSELVES TO A HIGHER STANDARD.
