Rusty Hardin<\/a>, whose legal career continues to be one of the most interesting and successful in the nation, was profiled by\u00a0Texas Lawyer<\/em>\u00a0as part of their series on the recipients of their\u00a02015 Lifetime Achievement Awards<\/a>(subscription required).<\/p>\n

The profile here<\/a>\u00a0(subscription required) hits some of the highlights of\u00a0 Hardin's career so far. It notes he spent 15 years as a prosecutor before starting his own law firm that handles both civil and criminal cases.<\/p>\n

“I never had a Eureka moment that I was going to be trial lawyer,” Hardin told Texas Lawyer.<\/em>\u00a0“In fact, I'm surprised how much I enjoy practicing law.”<\/p>\n

The article talked about how his\u00a0 last trial before leaving for private practice was “very challenging. It was a capital case involving the death of a police officer.” It caused him to form Texas People Against Crime, an organization dedicated to addressing criminal justice issues from the perspective of both crime victims and law enforcement.<\/p>\n

The profile mentions that Hardin was chief trial counsel for the Whitewater Independent Counsel's Office and includes an impressive list of his corporate and sports-related clients.<\/p>\n

And no profile of Hardin is complete without discussing the Anna Nicole Smith case. Hardin told the legal newspaper that the jury started out on Smith's side.\u00a0 “They believed that a 90-year-old man foolish enough to get with a woman her age deserved to lose. I had to get the jury to truly understand and empathize with the real victim, [Marshall II].” And, of course, he did just that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
