Lawyers who moonlight as Elvis impersonators? Lawyers who run dating services? Lawyers who carry surfboards instead of briefcases?

This week on the legal-affairs podcast Coast to Coast, we look at the fun side of lawyers — lawyers who have lives outside law offices and courtrooms. My cohost J. Craig Williams and I interview:

  • Noley Bice, general counsel at the Baylor University Law School by day and an Elvis Presley impersonator by night.
  • Elena Albamonte, a Justice Department lawyer who founded the dating service for lawyers, Lawyers in Love.
  • Grant Hardacre, a lawyer with Blum, Propper & Hardacre and president of the Association of Surfing Lawyers.
  • Paul Kenney, a trial lawyer and partner at Kenney & Conley, who is also a book author, musician, composer and screenwriter.
