Joe Harness is a big-city lawyer who serves the residents of the boonies from the middle of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. As general counsel of Walco International Inc., a Grapevine company that distributes animal health-care products to rural areas, he helps ensure that pigs get fed and cattle take their medication, no matter how far from town they live.

A job geared toward farm animals might seem like a stretch for an attorney who grew up in the Dallas area knowing little about agriculture and livestock, but it’s a perfect fit for Harness, who relishes being the top lawyer at a corporation.
