Business West in its December 8, 2008 issued featured an article: Joining Forces – Springfield Law Firm Forges Partnership with Soldier On by George O’Brien
John Downing says he walked into the conference room at Robinson Donovan with what would have to be considered modest expectations.
“I thought I’d meet some starchy lawyers who would say they’d be willing to help with a little pro-bono legal work, but would want to stay at arms-length from the people I serve,” said Downing, director of an organization called Solider On, referring to what was supposed to be a 30-minute meeting with several partners with the Springfield-based firm last spring.
What he walked out with close to two hours later was something much different — something much more. He had in his briefcase what amounted to a commitment to a partnership, one he firmly believes will help take his organization to some places that he might not even have dreamed of just over seven years ago when he interviewed for the job he now holds.
And that’s saying something, because Downing can dream pretty big.”
