Ep 5: Lee Barfield

What’s it like when Lee Barfield faces Johnny Cochran in a jury trial? Born in Macon, Georgia, along with home grown Otis Redding, James Brown and the Allman Brothers, Lee soon selected Vanderbilt and became a prominent Lawyer for Bass Berry and Sims in Nashville. He discusses his five pillars of life ... the keys to successful life (faith, family, vocation, relationships with everyone, health). Lee, a self-described “go to court attorney” loved the challenges of trying to tell a story to convince a jury of twelve that he was right. He discusses a case where he faced off with Johnny Cochran, of OJ Simpson fame, in a $75,000,000 case against Vanderbilt. He also discusses the notorious James “Jimmy” Hoffa trial that involved the famous attorney and Watergate prosecutor, James Neal. Lee ends to episode talking about his first love, improving the educational level of underserved children in Tennessee and across the country through School Vouchers.
