Schweitzer Klassifikation
Asa Rountree practiced law as corporate litigator and trial lawyer. He spent most of his career in New York City as a partner at Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, before retiring from the firm and returning to Birmingham, Alabama as a shareholder at Maynard, Cooper & Gale, P.C. Asa was a prolific writer, penning titles such as The Roman Republic: An Historical Parallel?; Human Nature, Morality, and the State; and Words: Essays and Other Words. He was, as he liked to say, a consummate collector of rejection slips.
