Tom Cole Admitted to the American College of Trial Lawyers
From the American College of Trial Lawyers Press Release:
Thomas M. Cole, managing partner at Whelchel, Dunlap, Jarrard & Walker, LLP, has
become a Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers, one of the premier legal
associations in America.
The induction ceremony at which Tom became a Fellow took place recently before an
audience of approximately 1,078 persons during the recent 2010 Annual Meeting of the
College in Washington, D.C.
Founded in 1950, the College is composed of the best of the trial bar from the
United States and Canada. Fellowship in the College is extended by invitation only
and only after careful investigation, to those experienced trial lawyers who have
mastered the art of advocacy and whose professional careers have been marked by
the highest standards of ethical conduct, professionalism, civility and collegiality.
Lawyers must have a minimum of fifteen years trial experience before they can be
considered for Fellowship.
Membership in the College cannot exceed one percent of the total lawyer
population of any state or province. There are currently approximately 5,790
members in the United States and Canada, including active Fellows, Emeritus
Fellows, Judicial Fellows (those who ascended to the bench after their induction)
and Honorary Fellows.
The College strives to improve and elevate the standards of trial practice, the
administration of justice and the ethics of the trial profession. Qualified lawyers
are called to Fellowship in the College from all branches of trial practice. They are
carefully selected from among those who customarily represent plaintiffs in civil
cases and those who customarily represent defendants, those who prosecute
accused of crime and those who defend them. The College is thus able to speak
with a balanced voice on important issues affecting the legal profession and the
administration of justice.
Tom is a partner in the firm of Whelchel, Dunlap, Jarrard & Walker, LLP and
has been practicing in Gainesville for 32 years. The newly inducted Fellow is
an alumnus of The University of Georgia School of Law.
