I left the Air Force JAG Corps at the end of 2004, after six years on active duty. Since then, I have been working as an associate attorney at a small but very successful litigation firm in Minneapolis. We have had very good success on some high-visibility cases, including representing the property owners in the Minnesota Twins ballpark condemnation, the plaintiff in this police civil rights case - http://www.startribune.com/local/west/11592986.html?elr=KArksUUUoDEy3LGDiO7aiU - and the plaintiff in this huge unpaid-wages action - http://www.startribune.com/business/11218391.html (I was co-counsel on the latter two cases).
Anyway, after working at my firm for about 4 1/2 years, they yesterday told me I am being named a partner. I know this is probably insignificant to non-lawyers, but it's really a nice recognition of my work and a major step in career progress. Woohoo!
