His exemplary counsel to two presidents made him a sought-after advocate at the highest levels of our legal system. Having found myself on the losing side of an Olson case before, I can attest to his well-earned reputation for winning.“More importantly, I count myself among so many in Washington who knew Ted as a good and decent man. And today, our thoughts are with Ted’s wife, Lady, and the entire Olson family.”###Related Issues: TributesPrintEmailTweetPreviousTHE NEWSROOMSENATE RESOURCESABOUT LEADER McCONNELLFacebookTwitterInstagram
