Golf for a Cause – Holiday Hack 2025

By Firm News and Celebrations, In the Community

This year, Fielding Law and Senior Attorney Ryan Cooper were proud to sponsor the Holiday Hack 2025 golf tournament at Tijeras Creek Golf Club in Rancho Santa Margarita, California, on December 19, 2025. The event was about more than just golf. Every swing and shot helped support the Fisher House Foundation, making a meaningful difference for the families of wounded, injured, and ill service members and veterans. 

The Calling of Fisher House 

This nonprofit provides free lodging for families of wounded, injured, or ill service members and veterans. It allows them to stay close to their loved ones during treatment without worrying about the cost. Participation in the golf tournament directly supports this mission, helping families focus on what truly matters, being together. 

The cost to play was $200 per player, which includes green fees, on-course games, lunch, and a post-tournament dinner. Every dollar goes straight to the organization, ensuring families receive the support and comfort they need during challenging times. By joining the tournament, golfers enjoy a day on the course. They also help make a real difference for those who have served.

Highlights From Our Very Own 

Fielding Law proudly sponsored Hole 10 for the cause. Our hole was hosted by Case Manager Alyssia Sparks and People & Culture Siera Cerulle, who brought extra excitement with a giant dice game. Participants could donate additional funds to Fisher House for a chance to win and tee off from the kids’ tees for a better shot at the hole.  

Alyssia Sparks shared that the tournament “was a hit.” Childhood friends, college teammates, fathers and sons, and more joined in foursomes, creating a day full of camaraderie. Hamburgers, drinks, and plenty of laughter kept spirits high as everyone played for a purpose. 

 Attorney Ryan Cooper even hit the course alongside his dad, making the event especially meaningful. We are grateful to everyone who joined us in supporting Fisher House this holiday season.  

Striving to Inspire Lasting Change 

Fielding Law is driven by a commitment to giving back and supporting the community. Through events like the Holiday Hack 2025, we were proud to help the Fisher House Foundation and their mission of keeping loved ones close during challenging times. We are also honored to support causes like the Jessie Reese NEGU Foundation, helping bring hope and resources to those who need it most. This work reflects how Fielding Law shows up for the community and our clients.

By Firm News and Celebrations, In the Community, Personal Injury

This highly anticipated event is more than just a celebration; it is the premier occasion to honor excellence in trial law and the achievements of top trial lawyers in our community. Hosted by the respected Orange County Trial Lawyers Association, the gala brings together professionals from across the region to recognize outstanding attorneys while supporting a meaningful charitable cause.

Giving Back with Joy 

In addition to the awards, the evening will feature a silent auction to benefit the Jessie Rees Foundation. Jessie Rees, known lovingly as “Jessie,” was a kind, athletic, and faith-filled girl. She courageously fought cancer (DIPG) from March 3, 2011, to January 5, 2012. During her treatment, Jessie’s compassion for others shone through. She asked her parents a simple question: “How can we help them?” Jessie was referring to other children in long-term, in-patient care at Children’s Hospital of Orange County.

With support from her parents and the hospital, Jessie created JoyJars®, 64-ounce plastic jars filled with new toys and games. She stuffed over 3,000 of them with help from family and friends before she passed away. These bundles of joy carried her message to the world: “NEGU®,” which stands for Never Ever Give Up.

 Getting Involved in the Cause 

Our very own Ryan Cooper, Senior attorney at Fielding Law and member of the OCTLA Board of Directors, will be donating a signed football from star athlete and reigning MVP of the NFL, Josh Allen to the gala auction. As a firm, we are honored to support this incredible event and cause by sponsoring a table at the Top Gun Awards Gala.  

This is more than a night out, it is a chance to give back to the community and be a part of something bigger. Spots are limited, so click here to register. 

 Keeping Our Promise to Serve 

Events like these remind us why we do what we do. Recently, our team joined the OCTLA to stuff JoyJars®, a small act of service that reflects our larger purpose. The Top Gun Awards Gala celebrates excellence, integrity, and compassion, the same values that guide Fielding Law every day. Together we are stronger, continuing to advance our mission of service and justice.

Clark Fielding Takes the Main Stage at Law-Di-Gras 2025

By Firm News and Celebrations, Personal Injury

In October 2025, Law-Di-Gras 2025, produced by The National Trial Lawyers, brought together many of the nation’s top trial lawyers at the Rancho Bernardo Inn in San Diego, California. The event blended education, collaboration, and community, giving attendees a chance to learn from one another and explore the future of the legal field.

Clark Fielding Speaking at Law Di GrasClark Fielding, founding principal of Fielding Law, took the main stage during the Even Up session. His presentation on AI Tools for Case Management Workflows focused on how technology can improve efficiency while keeping client service at the center of every case.

How AI Can Improve Case Management

Clark explained how artificial intelligence can support every step of a personal injury case. He showed that when used correctly, AI tools save time and allow legal teams to focus on helping clients.

He shared examples of how AI can help firms today:

  • Document Management: Sorting and summarizing large amounts of records for better organization.

  • Workflow Coordination: Creating automated reminders and task tracking for every stage of a case.

  • Litigation Preparation: Helping attorneys prepare documents and summaries while keeping attorney oversight.

Clark reminded the audience that technology should enhance human connection, not replace it. AI is most effective when used to support the empathy, care, and skill that define strong client relationships.

A Conference Focused on Growth and Innovation

Law-Di-Gras 2025 was more than a legal conference. It offered wellness activities, networking events, and leadership sessions that encouraged balance and collaboration. Speakers from across the country shared insights about law firm culture, innovation, and client experience.

Clark’s main stage presentation reflected the theme of growth through innovation. He encouraged legal professionals to welcome new tools while staying true to the values that make client service meaningful. His message aligned with Fielding Law’s belief that technology works best when paired with compassion and integrity.
