Family Business
We asked about your family business—whether you work with your parent, child, sibling, or spouse. After all, families that make hay together, stay together. (We're working on a better tagline.) Former US associate deputy AG Rob Weiner is an Arnold & Porter partner and his daughter, Courtney Weiner, is a Lewis Baach associate. But they do work together as the first father-daughter team on the DC delegation to the ABA House of Delegates. Rob becomes State Delegate after the August meeting. Courtney, a Princeton and Columbia alum, must have inherited some of that drive. Rob's a DC Bar Foundation past president, and last year Courtney chaired its first annual Go Formal for Justice Gala.
Santos, Postal & Company is a longtime family operation. It was founded in '71 by Howard Postal, who's since retired and handed over the reins to his younger brothers. Charles and Merle Postal, above in a picture from Bethesda Magazine, have worked together at the firm since '86. But that wasn't their first shared gig: They started working together as teenagers at the shoe store their father managed. If you're part of another family that's making working together work, send a picture to [email protected].
