A Look Back at an OBL Wedding!

One of the things that is fun to do here at OBL is to reminisce about the “big days” in our history. So, for instance, Karl starting the firm in 2002, Lindsay joining as an associate attorney in 2007, and then becoming partner in 2009, and Erik joining as a partner in 2017 are definitely on that list. Hannalore joining the firm in 2016, and then becoming Partner and Managing Partner in 2021, is also obviously on the list.

But what could top a wedding?!? Lindsay reminded Karl that he had been in touch with a local marketing firm back in late 2010/early 2011, shortly before their wedding in January 2011, and he apparently said, “If you get our wedding on the news, we’ll hire you.” Well, they did get us on the news, because the wedding happened to be scheduled on the same day that the Steelers were facing Baltimore for the AFC championship and the chance to go to the Super Bowl! The wedding was held at a hilltop restaurant that overlooks Heinz Field, and between that and the huge television we had brought into the reception, Karl and Lindsay were able to get married AND watch the Steelers beat the Ravens!!
