Law.com Features 2021 ‘Unsung Hero’ Ralph Teti

Willig, Williams & Davidson partner Ralph J. Teti is featured in a Law.com Q&A article entitled “Unsung Heroes 2021: Ralph Teti.” The article highlights Teti and the Unsung Heroes honor he received from The Legal Intelligencer for coordinating the firm’s 2020 election protection efforts.

During the 2020 presidential election, Teti and the firm’s leaders committed to doing all they could to protect the right to vote. The firm submitted amicus briefs in election-related cases and the lawyers served as resources regarding election law; they visited polling places and precincts on Election Day and spent 10 days after the election observing the mail-in vote counting at the Pennsylvania Convention Center. All told, the firm’s attorneys dedicated 775 hours to voter protection activity.

The Law.com article also shares one of the best pieces of advice that Teti said he has received: “A long time ago, a very wise person from the area where I grew up in South Philadelphia said to me, ‘Never forget where you came from.’ I’ve tried to keep those words in mind throughout my legal career. If you remember where you came from, you remember how far you’ve traveled, and you remember what it was like before you got to where you are. It helps keep you humble, no matter how much success you achieve.”
