The Executive Client Management & Training Team (ECMT) decided to host a little friendly competition in celebration of Superbowl Sunday.

Bring on our Annual Soup & Chili Cookoff! Soup… or… Bowl?! (😉)

This year, we had over 13 participants and everything from Deer Chili to Tomato bisque. All employees acted as judges by sampling the wonderful recipes and casting votes for the best chili and best soup.

…And so the time came for last year’s winners (Amanda Unterreiner - Best Chili & Claire Wood – Best Soup) to pass along their trophies….

It was a close vote! The crowned champions were Billie Hardison, Training Specialist (Best Soup - Italian Sausage & Tortellini), and Michelle Rigsby, Director of Client Management Services (Best Chili – Keto Chili). Congratulations, ladies and thanks to all our participants for the tasty fare!

* In most jurisdictions, a law firm can recover finance charges related to funding case expenses from case awards, but the compliance requirements can be too expensive to implement. Only Advocate Capital, Inc. has the proprietary AdvoTrac^® expense tracking system and service team that allows firms to easily comply with allocation and reporting requirements. So, for example, if a firm recovers at least 90% of its advanced case expenses, like most of our clients, the annual net cost of funds is very small-typically less than 1%.
