I was being bullied by a powerful and vile local public figure. It mattered to me that my advocate shared my values. Theo had very sharp and quick answers to my questions in the first phone conversation, and helped me navigate the fine line between a satisfactory defense of my professional reputation and a moral victory. It isn’t always possible to get both, but Theo had a good idea about where i stood each step of the way and helped me make sure that my outcome preserved my professional reputation while also sending a clear moral message to my employers, who would have just as soon thrown me under the nearest bus. They will think twice before they consider allowing a bully to run roughshod over their employees again.
