He went on to become one of the best known trial lawyers in Texas, with the Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association creating the Percy Foreman Lawyer of the Year Award in 1984. Foreman was a respected master of tactics. He lost only 53 of 1500 death-penalty cases and only one case resulted in execution (Steve Mitchell, electrocuted in Texas in 1951). Foreman's clients included General Edwin Walker, James Earl Ray, Charles Harrelson, Candy Mossler, and various organized crime kingpins. Jack Ruby requested that Foreman represent him after he shot Lee Harvey Oswald. Famed defense attorneys Richard Haynes and Dick DeGuerin both worked with Foreman early in their careers and credit him as a mentor. In 1966, Foreman received the Golden Plate Award of the American Academy of Achievement. (en)
