Two possibilities:
1. He was of the Watch Tower elite that was permitted to go to college.
2. He became a jw or jw friendly after getting his education.

When his website says "Personal Injury," it means his law firm is prepared to commit and assist in causing personal injury. It does NOT mean that they're interested in assisting the victims of personal injury.

McCabe is not authorized to speak for the WBTS as he was substituted out by the Society and replaced by attorney Shenack. McCabe is now only authorized to speak for his client, the North Fremont Congregation.

I don't see a link between personal injury in the U.S. and trusts and estates and roving around Europe and other places as a roving WT lawyer. One would imagine someone with strong corporate and business law background. He website is very flimsy with credentials. I was struck by his age, too. This was a major case for an older lawyer.
Somehow I Had the impression that the WT hired a reputable firm with some heft. Perhaps he represented the local KH, and another type of lawyer represented the WT. I am unclear as to the facts.
I can assure that his website is not typical of lawyer websites.
Sometimes I wonder how much money I could bring in if I rejoined the Witnesses! Most people would want to keep their religion off their website. It seems to me that the WT crowd loves vagueness.
Also, I would think that they would hire constitutional consultants at the very least. I would hire a prominent professor in the area, esp since priest-penitent privilege was involved.

He also practices Trusts and Estste?
Hey, that means is he also behind Watchtower's scheme of defrauding elderly JWs of their assets?!

There was an Awake! article on McCabe I believe in the late 1960s really pitching the big news about his conversion to the Witness religion. I remember reading it and I think the Awake! highlighted McCabe's football career, but you know how wrong memory can be.
