Inside the NEW SPEED | RICK PITINO’s Final Act? | Chihuahua ACTOR MARCH 2016 $4.70 LOST YEARS Vindicated by the Kentucky Innocence Project TOP LAWYERS Top Lawyers 2016 In January, Louisville Magazine mailed a survey to all active members of the Louisville Bar Association who reside in metro Louisville. Te survey asked this question: “If you or a member of your family were in need of legal services, who among Louisville-area attorneys would you choose to provide services in the following practice categories?” Once again this year, we asked attorneys to list the top lawyers in two separate divisions, “large” frms and “small/medium” (all other) frms. For the purposes of this survey, “large” frms are defned as those having 50 or more local attorneys. In each of the categories of services listed on the survey we asked the LBA members to name two attorneys in order of preference. In categories in which all “Top Lawyers” are in “large” or “small/medium” frms, we include only that frm size. Each lawyer receiving a frst-place mention in the survey was awarded two points; second-place mentions received one point. We then tabulated the results in each category to arrive at the listings of “Top Lawyers” presented on the following pages. Te number of lawyers listed in each category difers depending on the total number of lawyers mentioned in a given category. Te survey was mailed to 2,694 attorneys and we received 432 completed surveys. Te number in parentheses following each practice category is the number of surveys received on which that particular category had at least one name entered. Te top-scoring lawyers in each practice category are listed alphabetically, not in order of points received.

Burke Mosley, Townes & Watkins Attorney at Law Ronald “Reggie” Van Stockum Jr. private practice (Environmental Law) You have an interesting background of degrees. Not many lawyers have a Ph.D., right? “I am a biologist, and that is my great love. When I came home to Kentucky (after receiving his B.S. from Santa Clara University in California), I wanted to continue my education in biology, which I did, and when I got my degrees I decided to become an expert in the biology of my home and I didn’t want to leave. So the opportunity arose to go to law school and I took it. And then when I got out of law school in 1979, the environmental movement was picking up steam and there were new laws coming on-line. The only place I could fnd a job doing law and the environment was with the state’s (Department for Natural Resources and Environmental Protection), so I got my start working for the state as an environmental prosecutor. Back in those days, half of their load was coal and strip-mining cases, and the other half, in my case, was waste-management issues and Clean Water Act cases.” Are you noticing trends in your feld? “To fnd, purchase and protect the sensitive landforms and habitats in the state, country and the world. And along those lines, I work with the Kentucky Natural Lands Trust to raise funds to purchase large portions of Pine Mountain in southeast Kentucky. A lot of people want to do something about the love of their environment, and one thing that can be done is to participate in the purchase of natural habitat. That’s nationally and internationally. We’re coming to recognize that we’re losing the diversity of our life forms, and we must act to preserve those things as best we can.” I know you work from your horse farm in Shelbyville. What would you do if you weren’t a lawyer? “Well, I would be teaching biology, and I would be hoping to have a career at some level in music. I’m a singer/songwriter and I write what you’d have to call Americana music. And I also write fction — stories of magic realism. I’ve got two short stories and two novels up on Amazon right now, and one of them’s set in Louisville. I was also part of a bluegrass band called Funky Groundwater.” LOUISVILLE MAGAZINE 3.16 71 Dan Canon Jan C. Morris Clay Daniel Walton & Adams Lowen & Morris Paul J.

Sandlin O’Bryan Brown & Toner Goldberg Simpson BANKING LAW (138) BET-THE-COMPANY LITIGATION (186) Large Firms Rebecca O’Neill Jamie S. Brodsky lead attorney for Kentucky Refugee Ministries (Immigration Law) Stoll Keenon Ogden What are some of the trends you see in your feld? “I think because there haven’t been major changes to U.S. immigration laws in so long, a lot of immigrants and refugees are stuck in the system and need attorneys to try to fgure out how they can remain in the U.S. I would say in Louisville and Kentucky specifcally, there is a high demand for immigration lawyers. Because I work at a nonproft, the services we provide are at a low cost. We are so unbelievably busy, and there seems to be no end to the need for our services. Other cities — maybe even cities comparable (in size) to Louisville — probably have more resources, but in Louisville there are not many low-cost options for immigrants and refugees. There are only two (Catholic Charities of Louisville and KRM) that offer lawyers in immigration law. I handle a lot of asylum cases for people from Iraq or Syria, for instance. We also handle special immigrant juvenile cases — unaccompanied minors in the United States.” Bingham Greenebaum Doll Finish this sentence: A typical day doesn’t go by without… “Learning something new, whether it’s about an area of law or about another culture or country. I was just sitting here with my co-worker trying to pick out the right word from Arabic to English.” Large Firms What do you make of popular TV shows like Making a Murderer and The Jinx and the podcast Serial? “I watched Making a Murderer. Of course, I don’t practice criminal law, but I will say the two defense attorneys for Steven Avery, watching them — it’s like watching anyone at the top of a profession. I loved watching the level of skill and talent they brought to the case. It was inspiring to me and a reminder of what a difference a good attorney can make in a person’s life.” 72 LOUISVILLE MAGAZINE 3.16 June N. King William T. Repasky Frost Brown Todd David E.

O’Bryan Attorney at Law O’Bryan Brown & Toner Laura E. Landenwich William B. Orberson Clay Daniel Walton & Adams Phillips Parker Orberson & Arnett William E. Sharp Neil P. Roy private practice (Criminal Defense Law — Non-White-Collar) What cases are more prevalent in Louisville today? “There’s obviously a lot more heroin-related cases that I come across, and there’s also an uptick in frearm-possession cases. People seem to feel the need to have frearms to protect themselves. And when it comes to heroin, for whatever reason, it’s become a more popular drug and it’s affecting a lot of lives negatively. In my practice, I try really hard to get help for people who want it. Treatment is an obviously better option than going to prison or jail.” Has a particular case stuck with you over the years? “About eight years ago I had a case where a client was charged with robbery, and he had confessed to the crime after a 10-hour interrogation and had been identifed by a witness out of a photopack lineup, so the proof was really strong against him. But when gathering the evidence, we were able to fnd video footage of the robbery that exculpated my client. My client had a tattoo on his arm and the video clearly showed the robber had no tattoo. It was a pretty memorable case, and we were able to get him out of jail based on that evidence.” Finish this sentence: A typical day doesn’t go by without . . . “At least 20 of my clients sending me a text message. In criminal defense, you have to be readily available and personal, because if someone is arrested, you might be needed in court in 24 hours.” What do you make of popular TV shows like Making a Murderer and The Jinx and the podcast Serial? “I have not seen Making a Murderer, but I’ve received many comments and messages about it. But I do like the show Death Row Stories on CNN. It talks about exonerated deathrow inmates. “People who aren’t exposed to the criminal-justice system might think it works perfectly, but that can’t be further from the truth; (innocent people being convicted) does happen, and it’s important for people to understand that, so they can also understand that it’s important for them to have a representative looking out for their best interest. I think it’s a good thing that those shows are out there to give people a different perspective on criminal justice, rather than a fctional show like Law & Order.” 78 LOUISVILLE MAGAZINE 3.16 Attorney at Law David Tachau Tachau Meek INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY LAW (68) Large Firms Joel T.

Stemler Amy Cubbage Ackerson & Yann (Privacy/Information Law) Can you talk about a memorable case? “I’ve had several people come to me when their information has been put on the Internet and they want it down. And those are always interesting in dealing with how you get that information back from cyberspace. And, knowing that the interim providers (Facebook, Twitter, etc.) have immunity, trying to get around that to get to the person who is providing information inappropriately and getting the provider to cooperate with you is always interesting.” What’s something about privacy people would be surprised to learn? “Things are not as heavily regulated as you might expect.” What would you do if you weren’t a lawyer? “Oh, gosh. Well, at one point I was going to go to flm school and become a big movie producer. So who knows? Maybe something in the arts like that. Maybe a computer animator.” 84 LOUISVILLE MAGAZINE 3.16 Frost Brown Todd TAX LAW (155) Small Firms Large Firms Michael Grabhorn John A. Bartlett Grabhorn Law Stites & Harbison Sharon R. Handy Ross D.
