Joseph A. Hayden, Jr. Interviewed on The Bold Sidebar Podcast
Attorney Joseph A. Hayden, Jr. interviewed on The Bold Sidebar Podcast with Attorney Jeff Horn. In this podcast, which dives into Joe’s 50-year career as an attorney, Joe shares his insights and advice and discusses some of the key experiences and cases that helped shape his career.
“Looking back, I would say there are two dominant themes that really emerged in my career,” explained Joe. “The first one was that I worked very hard. I came from a school that preparation is everything and I used to say that there may be better lawyers, but nobody will ever outwork me. The second thing is that I really believe I was incredibly lucky. Lucky in the sense that I was in the right place at the right time and some good cases came along and it took nerve to take the shot when I was a very young lawyer, but you are only as good as the cases that came your way….It is a privilege to be a lawyer, it truly is.
“You can be involved in social change, you can be involved in helping people, you can make a nice living, but it is something that you have to earn and something you have to fight to keep…with this privilege comes the responsibility to exercise it in a meaningful way and to appreciate it.”
