From "Adta-talk"
May 8, 2009
If you attended the Annual Meeting in Scottsdale you will remember that Bob Tait, our new President, and Fred Raschke were not able to make it to the meeting until very late Friday night, with Bob missing some of the events a President-elect would truly not want to miss. They could not get away from the trial that seemed endless. But their dedication to serving their clients to the fullest finally paid off.
After three months in trial, Fred and Bob brought in a Defense Verdict in a rail-injury case that one would have normally expected to swing toward the plaintiff.
Fred requested Bob's expertise in the defense of this case as a result of their membership, and ensuing friendship, in ADTA. Dan Balmert, ADTA Marketing Committee Chair, commented:

This case referral was first discussed in the hospitality suite a few years back at an Annual Meeting and after thousands of hours of hard work, a Defense Verdict. Fred noted in discussing the case: "You are correct that this case is a testament to the marketing and networking of the ADTA, but more importantly, it is a testament to the quality of lawyers in the ADTA. As you all know, Bob Tait is pure quality."Relationships. . .it's all about relationships. The ADTA provides its members with the unique opportunity to meet and to get to know genuinely great trial lawyers from all around our country, Puerto Rico and Canada - lawyers who truly are 'one in a million.' Fred Raschke (from Texas) and Bob Tait (from Ohio) met each other at an Annual Meeting of the ADTA and became good friends. That relationship, built on respect for the talents of the other, is very special. The opportunity to engage in and grow such relationships distinguishes our Association from all others.
This is just one instance where we can truly say the ADTA Annual Meeting Hospitality Suite is definitely a place to connect and make friends for the betterment of your practice and your firm.
Congratulations to Fred and Bob!
