I was deeply moved by this human and humane understanding of how the law should be just one of our tools in justice-making. The deep commitment to the people who have been your clients, Doug, gives me hope for our litigious society. Knowing very little about the way the law works, it has often appeared a very rule-bound, hierarchical form to me. But not as GJP practices the law. Thanks for giving me hope. Doug and Peter,
