WHAT IS IT THAT YOU ENJOY MOST ABOUT BEING A LAWYER?

“The opportunity to help people who often can’t help themselves, due to a sudden loss or gross injustice. Words can’t express the way I feel when I receive the heartfelt thanks from a family I’ve gotten to know during a case.”

DID ANYONE IN PARTICULAR INFLUENCE YOUR CAREER CHOICE?

“My father was a strong role model for me, in that he was a judge for 27 years and taught me a lot by his example. He once told me that ‘90% of law is common sense, and is usually based on greed or sex.’

YOU SERVED AS THE PRESIDENT OF THE ISBA FROM 2000-2001. WHAT DID YOU LEARN?

“I started my term determined to help upgrade the public image of lawyers in general, as I was tired of hearing so many bad lawyer jokes! I wanted to create a more proactive media approach and educate the public about all of the great things about the legal profession. I was surprised at the huge number of lawyers I found donating their time and energy as volunteers, behind the scenes, for so many organizations! It really made me very proud.”

HOW ABOUT A PLUG FOR AT LEAST ONE BENEFIT YOU’VE REALIZED AS A MEMBER OF THE ISBA?

“I can give you two right off the top of my head! The ISBA’s Insurance Agency saved our firm $20,000 in premium going into year 2005 by helping us create our own HSA (Health Savings Account), and I personally saved over $1200 just last year alone for my home and auto insurance.”

ANYTHING ELSE?

“Several of my closest friends today are people that I met during my first few years in the ISBA, and some of them have also served as its President! This is a great organization that will only get better as our numbers get bigger. I hope every member will take advantage of the ISBA Insurance Agency and get a thorough comparison of their existing health insurance coverage. I’m certainly glad we did!”

Lawyers, Tigers and Bears, oh my? NO, HSA!

Angela Gorton has only one thing in mind when it comes to talking about Health Savings Accounts for ISBA members:

How can she make it any easier for you to quickly determine if lowering your premium without lowering your benefits will work for your firm?

“I really enjoy seeing the faces of members when I’m able to deliver a Group Health plan that saves them money AND maintains or even improves their benefits. After reviewing your current plan, I may recommend that you need only raise your deductible to lower your expense. But that isn’t always the case, it really depends on what you have now.”

How hard can it be to find out if your firm can save as much as Spence saved?

“I always tell members that I can’t help them if I don’t know what their existing plan is.”
