An opinion article in the Tennessean Bill Haltom is an author who resides in Memphis and Monteagle:
"Washington, D.C. lawyer Bob Bennett is one of best criminal defense attorneys in the nation. He represented President Bill Clinton during the Monica Lewinsky scandal. Over the years he has also defended and represented presidential cabinet secretaries, senators, and nationally prominent journalists.
He also loves to fish. He shares his law office with a speckled brown trout he caught in the Missouri River decades ago. The trout is mounted on the wall behind Bennett’s desk and dispenses what Bennett regards as the most important advice he gives his clients.
Whenever a new or prospective client meets Bennett for the first time, Bennett proudly shows them the fish and asks them to read what the fish advices them on a small brass plaque just below the fish’s mouth: “I wouldn’t be here if I had just kept my big mouth shut.”
It is advice that criminal defense lawyers regularly give their clients. Nobody talks, everybody walks!"
