Kurt Kastorf introduces the Georgia trial attorneys participating in GTLA’s LEAD program

Georgia trial attorneys: Meet some of the rising stars in your field.

Thank you to Verdict Magazine for letting me interview and introduce the 2020-21 members of Georgia Trial Lawyer Association’s LEAD class. Now beginning its eighth year, the LEAD Program serves to train and equip Georgia trial attorneys who have been identified as both exceptional lawyers and potential leaders with the necessary tools to take the next steps in their legal careers, both in and out of the courtroom.

Even as some programming has had to be modified to account for the COVID-19 pandemic, the GTLA LEAD Program nonetheless received scores of applications from qualified GTLA members with less than 10 years of legal practice experience or those who are 35 years of age or younger. 

Below are this year’s LEADers, but I encourage Georgia lawyers to read the entire article here. In it, you will meed some of Georgia’s rising star trial attorneys, and learn what drove their participation in the Georgia Trial Lawyer Association’s LEAD program.
