​3. Empathy

​”Each of us is more than the worst thing we’ve ever done.” -Bryan Stevenson (Just Mercy)

As the son of a pastor, the importance of empathy was imparted on me from an early age. I work in a very different field than my father. But people are people whether they are in a jail cell or church pew. Whether you made a terrible mistake or you were falsely accused, I’m going to treat you the same. You’re not a criminal, you’re a human being. The police, the prosecutor, and even the judge may treat you like a criminal. But I will not. Good people can find themselves in some tricky situations. And I will do everything I can to put you in the the best possible position going forward.
