< PreviousI want to Start a “not so new” idea for a New Year’s resolution. If you’re a Facebook user, how many times have you seen the post, “At the Coffee Shop for double latte...much needed!” What if in- stead, you posted, “I saved $200 this month toward my retirement goal...much needed!” So, what does a post like that mean? It’s really saying, “I spent a little less on coffee and instead saved $200 for my future.” I can’t tell you how frustrating it is to read post after post about fancy coffee or lunch at the newest restaurant. We post that because it’s cool. So why can’t saving be cool? Why can’t we get excited about saying, “Hey, today I saved $100 for my child’s college, my new house, or my retirement.” Unfortunately, the answer is most of us don’t want to talk about our savings. Why? Because most of us don’t save, or if we do, it’s not nearly enough, because we didn’t start soon enough. Saving is a journey, not a destination, so it’s harder to “Check In”. Now, I wouldn’t be a very good advocate for helping you prepare financially if I continued to just sit back quietly! So, let’s take a closer look at the numbers. On average people have less than $60,000 in their retirement plans. Do you think that will be enough to retire on? The answer is most likely a resounding NO! The average coffee shop patron spends $200 a month on lattes. If there’s 2 of you in the house, that’s $400. Let’s then take that $200 a month and invest it for 30 years. You could have accumulated over $542,016 toward your goals. Sounds way better than $60,000, right? So how do we make saving cool? Here’s a thought. Give your goal a clever name. I’d love to see a post like, “Saved $20 today at My Porsche,” or “Dropped $100 at the Beach House.” Make it a real object, something tangible. Visualize it. Get excited about it. And it will become a reality. Be proud of saving for you vs spending on another cup of caffeine. So change those posts. I dare you to be different. Be creative and take charge of your financial fu- ture! Start Saving, and Start Saving Today! And for those who absolutely can’t kick habit, just cut it in half. But do something! Your financial future rests on your shoulders alone. No one can do it for you. And THAT is my not so new New Year’s Resolution!

CLAUSEWITZ “Behind every successful woman is a tribe of other successful wom- en who have her back.” This state- ment has been proven true over and over throughout the development and launch of the Bexar County Women’s Bar Foundation LEAD Academy. I served as President of the Bexar County Women’s Bar Association and Foundation in 2014. The group had such a rich and storied past, including an incredible track record of devel- oping programs benefitting women and children in our community. I was charged with figuring out the BCWB’s “next big thing” – no small feat when there was so much to live up to. I de- cided to reach out to leading women in our legal community to gather their ideas about what might be next for BCWB. During several sessions with past presidents and women in the judi- ciary, our conversations inevitably turned inward to the needs of women in our profession. In particular, we discussed the dismal and stagnant attrition rates of women in the prac- tice—a survey by the National Asso- ciation of Women Lawyers had just revealed that while 50 percent of law school graduates had been women for many years, only about 15 percent of law firm equity partners and chief legal officers were women, a number that hadn’t appreciably changed in al- most 10 years—and the unshrinking compensation gap between women and men in the field. To that I added the fact I was personally unable to find any leadership development pro- grams geared toward women in the law, and few for women in leadership generally. Thus, the Bexar County Women’s Bar Foundation’s LEAD Academy (fondly referred to as just LEAD) was born. Beginning in 2015, I gathered a group of strong, accomplished, and dedicated women leaders in our legal community to serve as the program’s Steering Committee, and we began planning what would become LEAD. LEAD ’s mission is to assist women at- torneys in attaining the highest level of success in their firms and organiza- tions, in their communities, and in the legal profession. We aim to achieve this goal by teaching participants to lead in a way that is authentic and ef- fective; empower themselves and oth- ers with awareness and confidence; advance professionally & personally; and develop robust professional net- works. The program spans a calendar year, and our first class began in 2017. We graduated our third class this past December and our fourth class kicked-off in January. Relying on a well-founded curricu- lum taught by preeminent national and statewide speakers, we were confident the content offered to our select class members would promote self-reflection and growth as attor- neys and leaders. What we did not initially anticipate was the incredibly strong bonds that would develop be- tween each set of class members, and throughout the LEAD community. From advice to encouragement to referrals and more, women involved with the LEAD Academy work to- gether to lift each other up and em- power all to succeed. It’s a beautiful thing. In 2018, LEAD was awarded an Outstanding Program Award from the National Conference of Women’s Bar Associations, and a Star of Achieve- ment Award from the Texas State Bar. We have been the recipient of a Texas Bar Foundation grant and incredible support from the legal community. We sponsor an annual Empowered Women Leaders Luncheon each May, bringing together women leaders in the legal, business, and medical com- munity to network together and learn from a national speaker on relevant leadership issues. To say I am proud of the program our Steering Commit- tee has put together would be a gross understatement. Beginning January 1, 2020, I stepped down as Director of the LEAD Academy to focus on further development and refinement of the program’s curriculum. Lucky for all of us, Elena Villasenor Sullivan, a found- ing Steering Committee member who has been integral to the program’s success, is stepping up to serve as Director of the program. Elena is an amazing and proven attorney, leader, mentor, and advocate of women—as such, she is ideally situated to contin- ue LEAD’s growth and development as a preeminent program for women in the legal community. I can’t wait to see what happens next! TIFFANIE S. CLAUSEWITZ IS PRESIDENT OF THE CLAUSEWITZ LAW FIRM IN SAN ANTONIO. SHE CAN BE REACHED AT TIF- FANIE@CLAUSEWITZLAW.COM OR (210) 762-6422. 11Elena Villaseñor Sullivan is an execu- tive director of Compliance at USAA. She leads a team of compliance ana- lysts and risk managers to help cor- porate clients understand, opera- tionalize, and comply with the laws applicable to their business. Prior to joining USAA, Sullivan was a partner and commercial trial attorney at Jack- son Walker LLP. Sullivan is a graduate of Boston College and the University of Southern California Gould School of Law. She grew up in San Antonio, and is com- mitted to giving back to the community that has given so much to her. She is the 2020-2021 Director of the Bexar County Women’s Bar Foundation LEAD Academy and Co-Leader of a Girl Scouts of Southwest Texas Troop. She is married to Boston-native, Chris Sullivan, and they have a daughter, Lucia, who is just as independent as her mom. She enjoys traveling, arts and crafts, strength train- ing, and yoga. AALM: How would you describe the main goal of the Bexar County Women’s Bar Foundation LEAD Academy in your own words? EVS: LEAD strives to foster the next generation of leaders within the San Antonio legal community, the greater community, and across the nation. LEAD is paving the way for attorneys of all practices and backgrounds to build a successful career in a way that is authentic to them. The program gives women attorneys the opportunity to understand and leverage their strengths, build their confidence, create a vision of their career path, and INCOMING LEAD ACADEMY DIRECTOR, ELENA VILLASEÑOR SULLIVAN 12 ATTORNEY AT LAW MAGAZINE · SAN ANTONIO · VOL. 1 NO. 7develop the tools needed to get there. Perhaps the most rewarding benefit of LEAD is the professional relationships that are organically forming. We are witnessing LEAD participants referring business to one another, being promoted, overcoming obstacles, and helping one another make career transitions. It is a place to build trust, find a sense of belonging, seek advice, and build yourself up by building up others. For that reason, we are affectionately calling the LEAD leadership and participants our “Tribe.” AALM: Who should go through the LEAD program? EVS: Women attorneys with a desire to develop themselves professionally and a demonstrated potential for leadership are the perfect LEAD candidates. Under the leadership of Tiffanie Clausewitz, the founders of LEAD set forth a mission – to assist women attorneys in attaining the highest levels of success in their firms and organizations, communities, and in the legal profession. To achieve that mission, we want to ensure that our participants are diverse and our program is inclusive so that we are truly building leaders across all spectrums of our diverse profession—Big law, mid-size firms, solo practices, government positions, in-house departments, nonprofit organizations, the business world, or, legal services agencies—and across all areas of practice. Because we don’t need to be stuck in these silos and are more powerful when we collaborate, LEAD strives to make connections crucial to our participants’ personal and professional success. AALM: What kind of programming does LEAD offer? EVS: Each year-long LEAD program kicks off with a two-day symposium dedicated to empowering the participants with self-awareness and confidence. It follows with three quarterly seminars focused on how to advance professionally and personally through self-promotion and effective communication, developing a network of peers, mentors, and sponsors, and effectively leading projects and teams. Our faculty includes successful lawyers, businesswomen, and academics from across the nation to facilitate interactive and engaging leadership training sessions. We have also offered informal programming such as mentorship circles, book clubs, and social events. Now that we have three classes that have graduated, we’ll be adding alumni events in 2020. Another important component of the program includes candid discussions with successful women practitioners and judges who serve on the LEAD advisory committee and who continuously offer their time and talent to mentor the LEAD class members and alums. AALM: How did you get involved in LEAD? EVS: Christine Reinhard, Judge Renee Yanta, and I met to prepare for our William S. Sessions Inns of Court group presentation. We were talking about women in leadership, and I mentioned my work as the San Antonio Chair for JW2 and Entrepreneurial Connections. As we were leaving, Christine invited me to lunch with Tiffanie to talk about joining the LEAD steering committee. At the first steering committee meeting I attended, I was hesitant. Everyone else in the room had been a president or on the board of the Woman’s Bar, and they were all very close friends. I had very little involvement in the Women’s Bar many years prior. I never felt like I belonged in the Women’s Bar. But I stepped up, volunteered to take on some key tasks to plan the first LEAD class symposium, and I followed up on my commitments. One of my favorite leadership books, “The Go-Giver,” teaches that when you put others’ interests first and add value to their lives, it ultimately leads to unexpected returns. Four years later, fellow steering committee members have become some of my closest friends and colleagues who regularly engage in long text chains about everything from business referrals to working mom guilt. I am honored that these successful San Antonio attorneys have entrusted me to lead them through the next two years of the LEAD program. This is the kind of network we aspire to create among all the LEAD classes. AALM: As the new director of the Bexar County Women’s Bar Foundation LEAD Academy, what are your goals for the next two years? EVS: The 2020 LEAD Steering Committee is committed to: (1) Providing LEAD class members with a top-notch curriculum and program that fulfills the LEAD Mission; (2) Enhancing LEAD’s network of Elena is an amazing and proven attorney, leader, mentor, and advocate of women—as such, she is ideally situated to continue LEAD’s growth and development as a preeminent program for women in the legal community. I can’t wait to see what happens next!” “ 13potential and current participants, alumni, advisors, faculty, and donors; and (3) Developing a long-term planning and succession strategy so that LEAD will outlast its founders and become a legacy in the San Antonio legal community. I am honored to follow in Tiffanie Clausewitz’s footsteps. She created the vision for this program and brought together the founding steering committee to make it happen. LEAD’s success is a direct result of the countless hours and commitment brought by a group of local leaders who serve on the steering committee. Together, much is accomplished. With a solid foundation, now, is the time to continue building on that success. AALM: What lessons have you learned from your predecessor? EVS: Tiffanie’s superpower is transforming ideas into action. She had a vision to help our legal profession, and she brought people together with different talents to collaborate to make it happen. And, she is an amazing gift-giver— literally and figuratively. Last year, she gave the LEAD Steering Committee a framed print with the quote, “Empowered women, empower women.” That’s exactly what Tiffanie has inspired me and many others to do—help our legal community by helping the women in it define their own visions of success, and take action to achieve it, all while building their network. My goal is to sustain her vision because our legal community is stronger when we all raise the bar.

A 2019 re- port by Texas Land Trends1 found that 83% of Texas lands are privately owned “working lands,” i.e. lands utilized for ranching and agriculture. Such lands provide vi- tal wildlife habitat and incalculable aesthetic value. The study found that between 1997 and 2012 roughly 1.1 million acres of working lands were converted to other uses, such as resi- dential development. In order to pre- vent such future conversion some landowners are turning to conserva- tion easements. Under federal law, a conservation easement is a “qualified real property interest” contributed to “a qualified organization” exclusively for conservation purposes and that is perpetual in nature. For landowners concerned with keeping lands in the family and maintaining their present use, conservation easements offer at- tractive benefits. Land trusts, such as the Texas Agri- cultural Land Trust and the Texas Land Conservancy, among many others, as well the state and federal government, may serve as the qualified organiza- tion. Appropriate conservation pur- poses include the preservation of land for the general public’s recreation, habitat protection, and maintaining open space for the public’s scenic en- joyment. Each conversation easement should be drafted to reflect the unique conservation goals of the particular client. Given that the unified estate, gift, and generation skipping transfer tax credit is $11,400,000 for 2019, reduc- ing income tax is often a greater client concern than estate tax. (Please note that planning in light of the disap- pearing exemption amount is beyond the scope of this article.) A conser- vation easement is an exception to the general rule that a taxpayer may not deduct a charitable gift of a par- tial interest in real property. Accord- ingly, various income tax deductions are available, including a charitable deduction of up to 50% of an indi- vidual’s adjusted gross income (the recent increase to 60% only applies to cash contributions). Another benefit is that property taxes may be lowered due to the use limitations, although this may not be true in some cases. An estate tax deduction is possible where the executor makes an irrevo- cable election on the estate tax return on or before the due date (including any extensions) for filing the return. Often landowners worry that a conservation easement will limit oil and gas development. While surface drilling is generally prohibited, an exception exists where the minerals have been severed if the probability of surface mining is “so remote as to be negligible.” Horizontal drilling is permitted where wells may be locat- ed offsite and the lateral crosses the conservation easement property at a subsurface level. A landowner may also reserve drilling areas that do not interfere with conservation purposes. In some scenarios, subordinations or surface waivers may be obtained from the owners of outstanding mineral in- terests. Joseph L. Koehl is an associate attorney with Duncan, Bressler & Williamson, Inc. Board certified in Oil, Gas and Mineral Law, Mr. Koehl practices in the areas of estate planning and probate as well as energy law and related title matters. He is a member of the State Bar College, the Estate Planning Council of San Antonio, the San Antonio Bar Association, and the Oil, Gas and Mineral Section of the State Bar, and serves on the Board of the San Antonio Library Foundation. Estate Planning with Conservation Easements JOSEPH L. KOEHL | Estate Planning 16 ATTORNEY AT LAW MAGAZINE · SAN ANTONIO · VOL. 1 NO. 7In the right situation, conservation easements offer a method to reduce taxes while protecting habitat and wildlife, preventing the fragmentation of land, and preserving the integrity of a family property for generations to come” One factor weighing against conservation easements is that a landowner may be award- ed less in a condemnation because the use restrictions limit the “highest and best use of land.” Also, a destitute relative down the line will have less ability to sell the property to pay for debts and expenses. The counterargu- ment to this point is that many families wish to instill a work ethic in their descendants in which selling the family lands should never be an option. Another potential issue concerns the utili- zation of the charitable deduction where land is owned in trust. Section 642(c) of the Inter- nal Revenue Code requires that a contribu- tion must be made out of the gross income of the trust to qualify as a charitable deduction. In Revenue Ruling 2003-123, a trust that had granted a conservation easement was denied a charitable deduction because the land was trust principal and not income. Care must be taken in properly appraising any property subject to a conservation ease- ment. The IRS has actively challenged dubi- ous appraisals of conservation easements. It is essential that the client maintains records of the property’s value before and after the creation of the conservation easement. In at least one instance the IRS successfully ar- gued a conservation easement did not meet the federal requirements because it contained a substitution power where a taxpayer could switch out the land subject to the easement for other land. In the right situation, conservation ease- ments offer a method to reduce taxes while protecting habitat and wildlife, preventing the fragmentation of land, and preserving the in- tegrity of a family property for generations to come. Ultimately a client must weigh the use restrictions against the tax benefits and land preservation benefits allowed by a conserva- tion easement.AALM: When did you first know you wanted to join the legal field? Foushee: Just out of high school and while in college, I started in the legal field as a part-time/night- shift billing clerk. I never would have imagined it would have turned in my long term career. AALM: Did you ever want to do anything else? Foushee: I wasn’t sure what I want- ed to so I majored in Business Admin- istration. I thought perhaps I might would work in a bank some day – I love numbers and it just seemed fun. AALM: What is area of law does your attorney practice? Foushee: I have been working in bankruptcy litigation for approx. 22 years AALM: What drew you to that practice? Foushee: I just happened to get as- signed to a bankruptcy attorney after the PI attorney I was working for left the firm. AALM: Do you have any men- tors or professors that encourage you? Foushee: My biggest mentor would have to be an attorney I worked for many, many years before he retired. (Robert J. Rosenbach) He would al- ways say, Stacy don’t worry about what others are doing or not doing… just keep doing what you are doing and do your very best. This was hard to swallow for many years but as I look back, I am grateful for that ad- vise – if I would have let others both- er me I would not have stayed at Cle- mens & Spencer for all those years be- ing mentored by some of San Anto- nio’s finest attorneys staff congratulat- ing me. AALM: What experiences have taught you the most? Foushee: In the very beginning I got very nervous about pressing deadlines but after going through so many time-sensitive projects, I can honestly say I may get stressed out but ultimately, I do know everything will work and get done – I just have PRIORTIZE and to remember to BREATH!! LOL AALM: What drew you to your current firm? How would you de- scribe the culture there? How would you describe your role within the firm? Foushee: After the closing of my previous firm, I am very grateful I was given the opportunity to inter- view with Langley & Banack, Inc. The culture of the firm is one of teamwork and uplifting of others in any way possible. The attorneys and staff were very welcoming and gracious. From the very beginning, I was assigned to help in the Bankruptcy Workouts Section and its been a great fit. After doing creditors’ bankruptcy work for 21+ years exclusively, I am now assist- ing in the area of debtors’ bankrupt- cy work. AALM: What do you enjoy do- ing outside of work? Hobbies? Sports? Foushee: Outside of work, you will find me either participating in activ- ities with my Sorority, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. which is a Greek- lettered sorority of college-educat- ed women dedicated to public ser- vice or working my side hustle as a Independent Consultant with Touch- stone Crystal by Swarovski, working out with my Xtend Fitness Family or spending quality time with my fami- ly and friends.

Foushee “ 18 ATTORNEY AT LAW MAGAZINE · SAN ANTONIO · VOL. 1 NO. 7Once upon a time at the firm of Bubbly & Associates, Pepsi’s client was always so happy that he struggled to get her attention to gather data or focus on the serious- ness of the issues at hand. His partner, affectionately called Big Red, advised him to see Coke A. Cola. She always had difficult clients. She’d set him straight. Off he went to get the answer. Coke’s office caught Pepsi off guard: bright lights, colorful art, dance mu- sic playing in the background. This sharply contrasted with his well- appointed, but subdued workspace one floor up. Collecting himself, he shared his situation. Minutes later Pepsi had Coke’s se- cret recipe and headed off to his cli- ent. Two hours later, the client called threatening to fire Pepsi. The reason: she couldn’t trust someone’s confi- dence in the law if he couldn’t trust his own self-confidence. Turns out she liked Pepsi’s original approach. It calmed her, gave her things to think about despite her outwardly manic appearance. He was getting through. But he was impatient, unself-aware, and too insecure. He’d tried out Coke’s act to remedy these flaws, only to have it backfire. In the real world, could you imag- ine Pepsi running an ad with a polar bear or teaching the world to sing in perfect harmony? It would feel odd to have Michael Jackson moonwalking with a Coke generation. Pepsi can’t imitate Coke and Coke can’t imi- tate Pepsi, but both are perfectly ca- pable of satisfying a sweet tooth and quenching a thirst – the desired out- comes of drinking a soda. The same is true in the land of law. The job needs to get done. Clients need to be served. The lesson from above is simple: to thine own self be true. While a “you do you” phi- losophy seems obvious, conventional “people development” tells us that the “best people in a role model have the same behaviors.” Said another way: all NBA Power Forwards should be- have exactly like Tim Duncan did and they will achieve success. Or all chefs should cook and present like Bobby Flay, all executives should lead like Steve Jobs, all attorneys should…. You get the picture. Foolish, right? We are not cookie cutter-people or robots. Yet when we develop people, how of- ten have we told Bob to be “more like Joan when you’re presenting – she’s so engaging and you’re so by-the-book,” or encouraged Miranda to “have more attention to detail like James – you’re a little too pie-in-the-sky.” Focusing on our strengths, however – those thoughts, feelings and behaviors that are natural, comfortable, familiar – is where our personal sweet spots lie. Aiming those superpowers at targets feels most comfortable, but it also seems most authentic to those around us and produces optimal results. For example, assume the goal is to develop business. One attorney is known for her engaging stories, her tendency to know “no strangers,” and her ability to work a room. She uses her communication gifts to attract people, share the value of her firm and their services, and confidently close a deal. Another lawyer is known for building strong, long-standing re- lationships with clients. He exercises these people talents to deepen his clients’ trust, open doors for an array of conversations, and build an active referral stream. Both lawyers are top producers in their firm; both have ac- complished the goal in significantly different ways. The key ingredient is finding our own superpowers – those things we do uniquely well that lead to positive outcomes. Unfortunately, we can’t steal someone else’s cape and call it our own. Finding your gifts doesn’t require lightning or Infinity Stones: 1. Take an assessment to see how you’re wired. CliftonStrengths, Birkman Method, and DiSC are a few popular tools. They’ll put lan- guage around “the what.” 2. Think about when work or a task seems to fly by, and you lose track of time. This is “flow” or “the zone.” This is an indication you’re in your sweet spot. 3. Ask for feedback from a boss or a peer. They see you differently than you see yourself. They’ll tell you when you’re at your best. 4. My personal favorite: hire a coach. Work with a professional to help you identify and leverage your superpowers so you can up your game.
