Ernie the Attorney Gets More Famous - and for Good Reasons.
Athough I failed to find a free on-line version of the article, Monica Bay has written a fine feature spread about Ernest Svenson in the March/April edition of the ALM publication Small Firm Business. Called "There's No Place Like Home", it chronicles Ernie's decision after years at Gordon Arata, a relatively large New Orleans law firm, to launch his own firm--and how Hurricane Katrina was the catalyst in his decision. Ernie is a respected pioneer in legal blogging with an impeccable reputation as a person, lawyer, and IP litigator. We have corresponded a bit but have never met. Aside from both having parts of our lives below the Mason-Dixon Line, Ernie and I have 3 other things in common: (1) federal courts, (2) the occasional use of profanity in precisely the same way, (3) and admiration for the work and personhood of I [Heart] Tech diva Adriana Linares, who once jilted me in favor of Ernie. Still, the ALM article on Ernie is one which everyone should read.
