What if you can’t separate the lawyer from their identity? This compilation features attorneys whose practices aren't just what they do—they're who they are. They didn't choose their niches through market analysis or strategic planning. Their practices chose them. The pattern is clear: authenticity creates the most sustainable practices. The conscientious orthopedic surgeon becomes a conscientious personal injury lawyer. The geneticist who brings science to law and law to science. The proud son of Polish World War II refugees who helped shape Poland's commercial law framework. The stories of these and eight other Sticky Lawyers prove that the most fulfilling legal careers emerge when lawyers bring their whole selves to their work—their backgrounds, their struggles, their victories, their identities. In this special compilation, host John Reed looks back at guests who show that for some Sticky Lawyers, you can’t separate the person from the practice.

Erik Weber is an attorney, a champion runner and running coach, an author, and a motivational video creator and speaker. Oh, and he is also autistic. His own special education experiences, and his unique ability to understand and advocate for special needs students, have helped countless families navigate the IEP process in California. A passion for helping the disabled community has fueled Erik’s greatest accomplishments to date. As a law student, Erik wrote a paper exposing deficiencies in state-run institutions for people with disabilities, which led to California staffing regulation reforms and more oversight in group homes. And along with running marathons, he formed a running team for special needs kids to help them develop self-confidence, and learn, in his words, “how to be their own heroes.” Join us to meet a sticky lawyer like no other.
