High Street Beat is the personal weblog of John Landwehr, a partner at Cook Vetter Doerhoff & Landwehr and a former Mayor of Jefferson City. Your comments, feedback and suggestions are welcome.You might not believe this since I've been into this Mayor Thing for 7.7 years, but I'm a shy fellow. Dairy farm early years. Seminary adolescence. Philosophy degree. Apartment overlooking the bridge. You get the point.
That's why when our law firm redesigned the web page and started some weekly ads about our eight attorneys in the newspaper, I had to man up and take it like an extrovert.
When Tom Vetter and Dale Doerhoff hired me in 1984 it was a wonderful gift -- mentoring me into the world of private practice. Mr. Vetter is shown in the ad along with Dale's daughter Heidi Vollet, and Kari (Propst) Schulte.
Being surrounded by talented and ethical colleagues makes it easy to walk into 231 Madison every day. For my law partners and the News Tribune, I can pretend to be an extrovert when I have to.
