pFounding Partner Mathew B. Tully has been awarded the impressive Air Force Space Badge due to his completion of space training. Tully is among one of the few Army Officers awarded this prestigious badge, and among an even smaller number of National Guardsmen authorized to wear it.nbsp; /ppIn late 2008, Tully attended the clandestine National Security Space Institute (NSSI), the Department of Defense’s premier institute for providing service members with the space education and training required to support military operations. Upon graduation, he became one of only 200 space operations officers in the Army and the only space professional in New York.nbsp; /pp“I am honored to be one of the few National Guardsmen authorized to wear the Air Force Space Badge and grateful that the Army has given me the opportunity to experience our country’s space systems technology and capabilities firsthand,” said Tully. “I look forward to my continued space training and service to our country in the Army National Guard.” /ppTully is a Major in the New York Army National Guard, holding the position of Space Operations Officer. His military service and experiences have led him to dedicate his legal career to protecting and upholding the rights of veterans and service members across the country. Founded in 2003, Tully Rinckey PLLC has pioneered many landmark Veterans Preference and USERRA cases. nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; /ppTo speak with Tully or to learn more about Tully Rinckey PLLC, please contact Jessica Brociek at 202-787-1900 or via email at a href=mailto:jbrociek@tullylegal.comfont color=#336699jbrociek@tullylegal.com/font/a.

Cody Fowler Davis driven to open new firm

pLawyer and author Cody Fowler Davis has struck out on his own — again./ppHe left Davis amp; Harmon PA, which he formed in 2001, and opened another Tampa law firm this week appropriately named Cody Fowler Davis Trial Attorneys PA. His previous firm is now Harmon Woods Parker Hendricks amp; Abrunzo./ppBy all accounts a driven lawyer very much at home in a courtroom, Davis was polite about reasons for the change./pp“I just decided it was time for me to leave,” he said. “I was president of the firm and set it up, but some philosophical differences arose. They’re good lawyers, and they’ll do fine.”/ppThe back-story, Davis said, is that he “found a guy a lot like myself” with whom he wanted to practice law. He described Jonathan Brozyna as another driven civil trial and commercial litigation practitioner who successfully tried a lot of cases at a young age — like Davis./ppAnd, like Davis, Brozyna is a tennis player./pp“A tennis player bets on himself a lot,” Davis said./ppPrior to forming Davis amp; Harmon, Davis was a partner at Macfarlane Ferguson amp; McMullen in Tampa. He is certified by the Florida Bar in civil trial law and business litigation. Davis also is a certified mediator in state and federal courts./ppAlong the way, he winds down by writing and has authored two legal thrillers with Tampa ties, “Implied Consent” and “Green 61”. He has outlined a third book to which publishers want the rights, but Davis is a little too busy right now./ppHis credentials and profession come naturally almost by osmosis through his old Tampa family. Imagine the dinner table conversation when he was growing up at the Davis home. His late father was a judge, and his grandfather, Cody Fowler, was a founder of what is now Fowler White Boggs and an American Bar Association president./ppDavis plans to grow his new firm some, possibly to four lawyers./pp“I’m used to working hard and long hours and like a lawyer who shares the same desires and goals,” he said.

pThe number one mistake an employee can make is to sign an a href=http://www.wlfirm.com/practice-areasfont color=#336699employment contract /font/awithout seeking legal counsel beforehand.nbsp; Often the employee fails to ask for contract terms that will protect what he brings to a new job.nbsp; For example, if an employee brings his customers with him to a new job, he must have the employment contract exclude these customers from being considered the new employer’s customers.nbsp; Otherwise, when the employee leaves the company and tries to take those customers with him, the company has a claim that those customers are no longer his to take.nbsp; The cost of litigating over this dispute will be far greater than the cost of seeking legal counsel to review the employment agreement before signing it.
a href=http://www.wlfirm.com/font color=#336699Dallas Emploement Lawyer/font/a/ppQ. I have an employment contract that states it is for a one (1) year term.nbsp; Does that mean the company must employ me for one year?/ppNot necessarily.nbsp; The contract may provide that the company may terminate the agreement for any reason after providing an employee 30 days notice.nbsp; In such a case, the employee only has a 30 day term contract, not a one (1) year contract./ppQ. I have a contract that states the company will nbsp; “consider” me for bonus payments.nbsp; Does this mean it is obligated to pay me the bonus payments?/ppNo. Such language only obligates the company to consider you for possible payment.nbsp; The company can simply state they considered you and decided not to pay you any bonus payments.nbsp; More specific language is needed to guarantee an employee will receive bonus payments./p |
