What a joy to have my youngest, JK, shadow me yesterday. We grew even closer on a deeper level. I know I'm biased, but, I remain optimistic that our future is bright with young leaders like her.

«Hi James

I really appreciate your help and support today.
I had been praying asking Him to give me a sign on how to proceed with this matter. I know that it was God that allowed me to see you that day getting on the elevator at the courthouse.

Words cannot express how you comforted me but we both know that it was All God.

I will be forever grateful for you and if you ever need me for anything please don't hesitate to reach out.

Thank you and your legal team for the support in this matter."

I love what I do!

So this is what greeted me when I arrived this morning. I am told there is more in store...😳

Gotta love your staff (family) who keeps things light in the midst of "controlled" chaos. 😅

At times, we make mistakes and need to own up to them. In our youth, those decisions are impulsive and can have potentially dire long-term consequences. We may decide things in a panic where rationale goes out the window. Also, we may want to live a certain lifestyle that ultimately is not productive and runs afoul of the law.

I am proud of my (longtime 😬) client who has made some of those impulsive mistakes. However, he has turned his life around. Having a child centers you and choosing to step into manhood results in positive consequences.

Today, along with the State of South Carolina, we closed that chapter and opened a new one with him being a free man while addressing other challenges for a short probationary period.*

I am grateful to his family for trusting me over the years BUT my hope is that no future representation involves the criminal justice system. I am betting on him as he bets on himself.

*All cases are different. So are the results.

I love what I do!

I am grateful that I get to help people in need as a lawyer.

I am grateful that I was available last night when the family called.

I am grateful that, due to modern technology, I could represent my two clients, by telephone at their bond hearings this morning.

I am grateful that Spirit would not let me be comfortable "dialing it in."

I am grateful to my wife, Tammy Shadd ,giving her full support for me to attend in person on this Day of Gratitude.

I am grateful to their families and employers attending in support of my clients.

I am grateful to a fair judge exercising sound judgment.

I am grateful my clients will be home later today of all days.

I am grateful for being allowed to zealously advocate especially in times of high stress and unease.

I love what I do!

Join me, Columbia!

Men, I need you to join me and the panel. Be vulnerable. Be supportive. Be there as your brother's keeper. Ask what's wrong and dont take "I'm good" or "I'm straight" as the final answer. 1 in 7 Brothers are not. 💜

I understand that you have years of legal experience and you do this everyday. I also have no doubt that you've made an incredible impact on the lives of COUNTLESS people. I'm just asking, on today, please add the _________family to that very long list!
