Haskin firm should be Haskins. Where it says that I chaired the tort committee and served on the task force for UPL, it should say that I chaired the tort section and chaired the task force. I also served on the lawyer advertising committee, formed to recommend changes to the ethics rules governing advertising by attorneys. Those recommendations were adopted by the Arkansas Supreme Court. Where it says that I'm a non voting tenured delegate, it is not clear what that means. It should mention that I served as an elected member of the House of Delegates for approximately ten years until I chose not to run for reelection. At that time I became a tenured delegate due to my lengthy service as a voting member of the House of Delegates. Tenure allows me to address the full House on any issue under consideration. Only current delegates and tenured delegates are allowed to address the full House of Delegates, except by special invitation.

I will look for more. I don't know if you need documentation for it, but I also was elected Chairman of Arkansas Attorneys for Consumer Protection (and am still chairman), an organization of Arkansas' most successful plaintiffs law firms. (We incorporated, so that documentation exists somewhere.) The organization is devoted to protecting freedom of speech, and to enhance the public's access to information about the legal system.

Savannah says any wiki page should include at least one picture. A still of me at the podium introducing RFK, Jr. at the annual convention, and another taken of me with Bill Clinton, would be my suggestions. There is another of me with officers of the Arkansas National Guard, who presented me with the flag that flew over their base in Iraq, and a plaque expressing their gratitude for Operation Safekeeping, which provided free legal services to the families of service men and women deployed in combat zones. I played a key role in developing that program, and administered the program as president of atla during its inaugural year. That photo hangs on the wall at the Atla office.

I also served as co-chair of atla's "Committee to Protect the Constitution" for three years. I also served as co-chair of the Legislation Committee for three years. I have been a member of atla's Executive Committee for ten years, and continue to serve in that capacity. The firm has produced more presidents of Atla than any other firm in Arkansas, starting with me, then Chris, then Tre, and in April George will become president-elect. No firm has produced four presidents until we will soon do so, and only one other firm ( mcmath), has produced three. No other firm has produced more than one.
