Resources

slappey sadd We have been fortunate. We feel it is our privilege and duty to share our good fortune and whatever gifts we can offer, as time in this life would allow. Besides caring for our own families, we believe that giving back to the community is a calling for us and for all able bodied people. As for lawyers, Frederick Douglas once said, “A lawyer is either a social engineer, or a parasite on society”. If he is correct, we prefer to behave as the former. We should also be quick to say that many lawyers give their time, expertise and other resources en mass and without complaint. We are proud of our profession, both inside and outside the halls of justice. Some of our community interests and endeavors are listed below.
