  • I'm Dell Charles Toedt III; I've gone by "D.C." since birth because of the Roman numeral. My last name is pronounced "Tate."

    I'm a lawyer in Houston (licensed in California also) and professor of practice at the University of Houston Law Center, teaching advanced business-contract drafting.

    I used to be vice president and general counsel of BindView Corporation, a publicly-traded software company headquartered in Houston, which (as outside counsel) I'd helped the founders to start; we were acquired by Symantec.

    I post sporadically at:

    - Startup Law 101 — a periodically-updated page of notes and links: http://www.OnContracts.com/startup-law

    - The Questioning Christian, http://www.QuestioningChristian.org (lying fallow at the moment)

    Undergrad: Math & physics. UT Austin alum for both college and law school.

    In between college and law school, I did my ROTC scholarship payback time as a Navy nuclear engineering officer and ship-driver (SWO 1110) aboard the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise and was chief-engineer qualified.
