Shawn Isakson’s Post

Reposted so it can be shared: Prominently placed in our home the last couple of years is a small sign that states, “I trust the next chapter because I know the author.” It is somewhat fitting then that the ultimate author of life would take me on a journey that included writing.  I am excited to announce today the formal launch of The Legacy Business.  This book served as a mid-life rallying cry for me. It is my hope and prayer that it will encourage each of you, as we all try to process this world and contemplate our future purpose in it and impact on it. https://www.amahttps://lnkd.in/gttGGrzx #amazon #legacy

We are excited to announce nine of our attorneys have been selected to the Super Lawyers, part of Thomson Reuters Texas Rising Stars 2020 list! The attorneys selected are Equity Shareholders Dustin Fessler and Justin Markel, Shareholders Rick Anderson, Clint Brown, Frank Carroll III, Mia Lorick, Rahila Noorani Sultanali, and Sarah Vida and Associate Edward (Teddy) Holtz. This year marks the largest number of attorneys selected to the Rising Stars list in RMWBH’s history. To qualify for the Rising Stars list, attorneys must be 40 years old or younger or be in practice 10 years or less. In addition to the set qualifications, the attorneys selected to the Rising Stars list go through a rigorous selection process from nominations, independent research and peer evaluation before being selected to the list. The lists are determined by state and no more than 2.5 percent of all attorneys in the state are selected to the Rising Stars list. This tremendous honor shows the future of RMWBH is in great hands. Congratulations to all the attorneys selected!

When we created our foundation, Warren Buffett told us: “Know what your bullseye is.” If you keep your eye on your target, he said, you’ll focus on what matters most. I’m grateful to Warren for his friendship, wisdom, and support. Read our Annual Letter: https://m-gat.es/2SIKkCA.

I am honored to have been named Business Partner of the Year by the San Antonio Chapter of Community Associations Institute. It has been a great privilege to work with CAI and the people behind the organization over the last several years, especially this past year. I have enjoyed speaking at luncheons, traveling to Washington D.C. to represent our chapter and advocate for community associations, and getting to know each of you that are a part of our great organization. I look forward to representing our chapter for years to come and want to say thank you to everyone who made this great award possible.

After a grueling application process, three months of studying, and a six hour exam, I am so excited to announce that I passed the civil appellate board certification exam! With a 20% pass rate, the odds were not in my favor; but, I did it!
