Please allow me to brag a little bit today. My second son, Blake Goolsby, has successfully passed the Georgia Bar exam and has now been sworn in as a licensed Georgia attorney! Blake has now joined his brother, Richard H. Goolsby, Jr., and me, (his father, Richard H. Goolsby, Sr.), in our family law practice, here, in Augusta, GA. We will continue to handle Augusta area divorce cases, personal injury cases, criminal law cases, and other general litigation -- but now, our family of lawyers is just a little bit bigger!

Now, I hope you can understand why I am so happy today!

Celebrity Separations and Divorces: Evander and Candi Holyfield

Did you hear the news?  According to various news reports, the divorce of former boxing heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield from his (ex-)spouse, Candi, became final recently here in Georgia.

I have always been a big fan of Holyfield, both inside and outside the ring. Once, while standing in line for a sporting event at the civic center, here in Augusta, Georgia, I unintentionally bumped a man in front of me. As I turned around to apologize, I immediately recognized that it was Mr. Holyfield who I had jostled! Thankfully, he was very gracious and even gave one of my sons his autograph!

Here's hoping that Mr. Holyfield and his ex will soon get beyond any problems and find happiness.
