Joe,
Thanks for reaching out. We are trying to sort out how to handle the travel issues based on the weather, and we should have a better sense of the plan by later today. As we're troubleshooting scheduling issues, it would be helpful to know if you and your client would be available on 9/5, or on any date the following week.
Thanks,

Good morning,
Just wanted to check in to see if you still planned to travel south given the storm. Current estimates show a landing (somewhere) Tuesday with very bad weather on Wednesday. Airports might close (which will answer my question), but that’s a guess.

Hi [REDACTED],
I just wanted to follow up re the August 14th meeting. Is it possible to schedule for early afternoon (anytime after 1)? I have proactive cooperation ongoing in another case involving multiple jurisdictions, and they are looking to meet the morning of 8/14. I understand if your schedule is already set, and will work around it.

I do not have any travel plans during the month of August, nor does [REDACTED]. September is a busy month with two trials set, and I will be traveling out of the country from Sept 17-30, but I will do everything to be as flexible as possible.

Joe,
As we start thinking about scheduling a next meeting with [REDACTED] we were wondering if you could please let us know if there are any particular weeks that would not work for you or your client for a meeting in Florida (in particular, we don't want to interfere with anyone’s summer vacation plans).
We will of course be in touch to talk about a next meeting in more detail, but in the first instance it would be helpful to get a sense of your schedules, for planning purposes.
Thanks,

No need to take any more time out of what I’m sure was a busy weekend for you. Let’s set a time for Tuesday morning (the earlier the better for me). Let me know what works for you.

Joe,
Thank you for reaching out, and we would be happy to schedule a time to speak with you. I expect our schedules may be somewhat unpredictable tomorrow; would it work to set a time to talk on Tuesday? We can schedule it for before you meet with [REDACTED], if that’s helpful. Or if you’d like to talk sooner, we could schedule a time later today, or check in tomorrow about a possible afternoon discussion. Please let us know what you prefer, and we look forward to being in touch.
thank you,

My former partner, Alan Ross, represented [REDACTED] ([REDACTED]), prior to his passing in 2018. Agent [REDACTED] served [REDACTED] with a grand jury subpoena earlier today, and as Alan’s former partner and FL Bar appointed inventory attorney, she has contacted me. Unfortunately, I am unable to meet [PAGE 11] with her until Tuesday, but I would appreciate a few minutes of your time at your convenience as I am getting up to speed. Please let me know what day/time is best for you.
Look forward to speaking with you.
Best,
Joe
