Based on my experience of working with Mr. Holmes--in both adverse actions and in cases where interests have aligned--I would identify him as a consummately effective counsel and advocate. His legal positions are solidly grounded in applicable law; his on-record and off-record communications are appropriate and persuasive; and his legal strategies are reasonable, intelligent, and prescient.
