Introducing Triple L

I've been thinking about starting this blog and newsletter for some time now and am finally getting around to it. "Triple L" stands for land, law, and litigation, the three pillars of my working life. I liked the name "Triple L" because I read a lot of western fiction and the name sounds like a ranch brand to me, which I thought would be cool and would make a satisfying contrast between something old timey and something newer like blogging and the information I plan to publish here. I also live and work in the East Bay near Mount Diablo, an area with a lot of ranching history and cattle grazing on the hills to this day. According to Google, there are at least one or two ranches of that name, presumably using a branding iron in the shape of LLL or maybe 3L . I also considered simply "3L" for the name of the blog, but for most lawyers, that term will conjure memories of the third and final year of law school, and we don't want to go there.

This exercise will serve a number of purposes. First, simply needing to maintain this publication will help my office and I stay abreast of significant developments in real estate, real estate law, real estate litigation, and litigation procedure affecting investors, businesses, and lawyers in California. Having educated myself and my office, it's then a simple email or print and snail mail to provide useful updates to clients and to those who may care in the broader legal and real estate communities. Last but not least, I will hopefully have occasion to toot my own horn from time to time by sharing some success stories and other news about me and my practice.

If you would like to receive this blog, you may follow the prompts to subscribe, and you are welcome to send me a note if you would like to receive a periodic email or mailed version of the blog in newsletter form, and I'll put you on a list. --MTB

  1. I like your idea Marcus. It's good to learn about your outside interests in Western fiction. Best of luck with it!
