F&P Employee Spotlight on Counsel James J. Temple, III

What advice would you give your younger self?
I would tell myself that the limits that I believed I had were self-imposed. Too often, we choose to limit ourselves based on insecurities. It is only when we push ourselves that we can move past our so-called limitations.

What is your practice area, and how did you choose it?
I practice Workers’ Compensation. This is a field that I have known for many years, as my father was a long-time workers’ compensation attorney.

What is your favorite aspect of working at F&P?
The people. My colleagues are incredibly knowledgeable and competent. They are always open to collaboration and assisting when anyone needs help.

What is your proudest accomplishment?
My proudest personal accomplishment was finishing a 140.06 Ironman in 2018. It was something my mentor challenged and encouraged me to do, and I am really proud to have completed it.

What is your favorite food?
My favorite food is wings. If it is on the menu, I am ordering it no matter what.
