mit. But then I found that I had too
much to handle myself and was calling—/
on him as a friend and excellent
lawyer to help me handle my load,"
Domstein recalls.
The day they opened shop, one
year ago, neither signed their John
Hancock on anything. Instead, the
two simply decided they would split
all expenses and do "whatever is fair.
Our arrangement was reached well
into our practice after we determined c=(
what the expenses were and what the
income was," says Domstein. As
lawyers, we operate without a written
partnership agreement. Isn't that
something?"
And as lawyers, they complement
one another in more ways than their
legal experience and expertise.
Domstein placed in the top 3 percent —/
in the country for the bar exam in July
1994. They both joke that Domstein
has the brain and Yaldo, with his dark
hair, large eyes and athletic build, has
the looks. Of course, he's also a
resourceful lawyer who's driven to
"improve the world on a microcosmic
level," he says.
And how do their families feel
about their choice to run a law firm
together?
Happy. "My parents have known
Scott for years and they both like him
a lot,"says Domstein, who with his
brother, Randy, has vacationed and
cruised the Caribbean with Yaldo and
his brother. Says Yaldo, "Dave has
been to all my social functions at the
house.
Their relationship has been a culi-
nary education for each of them. On
a million occasions I've had pita
bread," laughs Domstein. "And I can't
get my mother to stop feeding him,"
adds Yaldo, who last year attended a
Passover seder at Domstein's home
and found it "intriguing."
Over the years, they've discovered
that their roots really aren't that much
different. "Chaldean mothers are very
similar to Jewish moms. You can't get
out of there without being fed and
they're very proud of their children,"
says Domstein. Adds Yaldo, "They're
warm and welcoming."
That warmth certainly must have
been inherited by these two young
lawyers. "I guess we all harbor gen-
eralizations about people, but gener-
alizations are generalizations for a
reason," says Bornstein. "I don't
look at Scott as an Arab. I look at
him as a friend and I envision being
in partnership with him as long as I
practice law."
