Partner Charlie Weiss featured in Law360 on his dedication to the legal industry

Partner Charlie Weiss was featured in a Law360 article about his passion to continue practicing past a traditional retirement age. Charlie’s mention includes his commitment to pro bono work, his longstanding tenure at BCLP, and his dedication to coming into the office.  

The article notes, “over the course of seven decades, the 84-year-old litigator in the firm's St. Louis office has earned accolades for his pro bono work, in particular for the exonerations since 2009 of five separate individuals who had been convicted of murder and sentenced to life without parole.”

"I think it helps me stay intellectually stimulated, helps me stay mentally young, it provides a motivation for me to get up ... and help other people," Charlie told Law360. "I love the practice of law. I can't imagine not practicing law and giving it up someday."

Charlie is a Fellow in the American College of Trial Lawyers and the International Academy of Trial Lawyers, has more than 40 years experience in business and complex litigation. Charlie first joined the firm in 1969 and continues to practice out of the St. Louis office.
