President of the Houston Trial Lawyers Association TURNING THE SPOTLIGHT TO OUR GOOD FRIEND, TOBY

You might remember Toby Cole, an amazing local attorney who’s become good friends with Russell, Ashley, and The Button Law Firm over the last few years of attending seminars and working on cases together. Building on his prestigious career and proof of the esteem and respect with which fellow attorneys view him, Toby was elected president of the Houston Trial Lawyers Association last year. For our team, it was awesome to see our good friend’s drive and hard work recognized. We are so honored to know Toby and to celebrate the contributions he’s made to everyone at our firm, the legal world, and our community.

As Russell attests of Toby, “He is always trying to get better. He also values family and relationships like I do. It’s been one of the best working relationships I could have imagined. He’s become like a brother to me. Seeing him become the president of this very well-known organization is a tribute to his talent and skill and what he’s done under the toughest of circumstances. I’m so proud of him.” For Toby, stepping into this role was an honor — and a little daunting. “It’s the biggest trial lawyers association in the state; there are over 950 members,” Toby shares. “It’s where you go to get information and get involved. I’ve been a member for several years, and I figured it was time to give back. As president, it means giving back to other lawyers involved in the organization, showing up, and being available to my peers.” How does it feel a year out, having served as president through 2019? “It’s been better than I could have expected,” Toby says of the role. “Being able to work with so many different lawyers and help guide the ship we’ve all built through the years has been a great experience. We also have a really good executive director who made my role easier.”

Congratulations to Toby, and thanks for all you do for your peers and your community!
