Title: Regulatory Trial and Appellate Attorney; Founding Partner of Law Firm of Ivey & Levetown
Industry: Legal

What is your morning routine?
A: Coffee and the newspaper. Jolene (wife) and I take turns: I start with the Metro section and she starts with the front section. Then  we switch.  I get Sports all to myself!  After that, it’s off to work.

How would you describe what you do?
A: 
I’m an attorney who handles trials, appeals and investigations.  My clients are a mix of individuals and businesses.  It’s challenging and exciting work, and I enjoy being able to help people when they’re in tough situations.  By the way, I’m also a recovering politician!

What is the last book or article you read and what was your biggest takeaway?
A: 
I recently heard a sermon on David & Goliath, which led me to the key passages in the first Book of Samuel.  I stayed with that theme and took a look at Malcolm Gladwell’s book.  The overall take away for me is that we can’t be afraid to take on the giants in life.

Identify one trend in your industry you predict will change how business is done?
A: 
Remote work has already taken hold in the law, even in court.  It’s amazing how much time it saves.  Also, geography isn’t the obstacle it used to be:  I’ve worked with some excellent lawyers and law clerks who live too far away to commute to my offices.  At this point, I think it’s here to stay in one form or another.

What’s your favorite productivity habit?
A: Starting early.  I’m more efficient when I get started before the phone starts ringing and the emails pour in. 

In business what is something that most people learn only after it’s too late?
A: Depends on the person.  But no matter what you do for a living, it’s important to pay attention to  the business world.  Especially now that people are able to push businesses to be responsible corporate citizens and to have a positive impact on the world.
