the advocate who has continued to follow chandler’s example, striving toward:

• Living a balanced life, one that puts family first and foremost,
• Building a strong connection to one’s own faith so that it may serve as both a
  guide and anchor,
• Recognizing the strength and importance of tradition, and
• Dedicating one’s self to professionalism and ethics in the practice of law and the
  pursuit of what is right and just, regardless of the consequences.

TTLA was founded in 1949 with a mission to protect the rights of Texas families and promote excellence in trial advocacy and the legal profession.
