In Episode #17 of the San Diego County Bar Association’s Meet and Confer, hosts Renee Stackhouse and Adriana Linares chat with Dennis Tempko, an SDCBA member practicing appellate law in San Diego. We invited Dennis on to talk to us about his passion project and startup, HyperCite. Dennis invented and developed HyperCite to address a real-life pain point he was experiencing in his own practice (he's still a practicing lawyer!)- hyperlinking citations from a parent document to the child(ren) documents referenced in the main doc. We hope you enjoy the conversation and be sure to give HyperCite a try - it's currently FREE!

HyperCite® is web-based software that autonomously combines an appellate brief, motion, or other filing with the record on appeal. Once combined, HyperCite® simultaneously creates hyperlinks between textual record citations in the brief, petition, motion, or otherwise, to the exact pages cited contained within the record on appeal. The record on appeal for HyperCite® hyperlinking purposes does not just include items such as a Reporter’s Transcript, Clerk’s Transcript, appendices, or exhibits. HyperCite® also hyperlinks citations that cite to previous briefing, motions, or any other conceivable source document.

In podcast Episode #6 of the San Diego County Bar Association's Meet and Confer, SDCBA member-hosts, James "Jim" Crosby and Renee Stackhouse chat with SDCBA Member, Philip Mauriello, and San Diego attorney, Nannette Farina. This podcast was recorded in support of Jim and Renee's recent article in San Diego Lawyer, "San Diego Lawyer Artists."

Organized, structured, methodical, tactical, deadline-oriented, device-laden, neatly-stacked documents on sleek desks, always busy, always working, always billing — these common (and commonly inaccurate) perceptions of lawyers seem far removed from notions of artistic inspiration and individual creativity, and from sketchpads, easels, and paint. But, is that accurate or fair? Are the traits that make lawyers successful incompatible with those that could make them happy, fulfilled, and successful artists? Can one be both a busy, successful lawyer and an active, creative artist? These three San Diego lawyer-artists say, “Yes. Why not?”

In podcast Episode #5 of the San Diego County Bar Association's Meet and Confer, SDCBA member-hosts, James "Jim" Crosby and Renee Stackhouse chat with SDCBA Member, David Leatherberry, about his gutsy move to leave Big Law and launch a successful and fulfilling solo practice.

Going solo can be both stressful and exciting - leaving the comforts of a fully supported big law firm can be hard. But the allure of having the freedom to practice law and serve clients the way you want is also hard to resist. David heard the solo call and after a few fits and starts, has built a statewide practice that is both satisfying and rewarding. In this episode of Meet and Confer, David tells Renee and Jim how our member technology officer, Adriana Linares, was able to point him in the right direction as he built his mobile and secure practice using affordable technology solutions and tools.

My practice is more energized and I am loving law now more than ever.David Leatherberry, Health Law Provider

He is counsel for the San Diego Psychological Association and currently chairs the Health Law Committee for the Business Law Section, California Lawyers Association.
