Continuing the Tradition

With more than eighteen years of experience in the legal profession, we have had the privilege of serving the greater Wichita and El Dorado areas with integrity and confidence. It brings us great joy to see our clients liberated through the application of justice.

Our nation’s judicial system was founded on the principle that justice should be carried out equally to all men, regardless of race, origin, or sex. Our firm seeks to continue this proud tradition of justice by representing all of our clients with the same ardent commitment to justice possessed by our founding fathers.

The everlasting symbol of this heritage is the figure of the Lady Justice. Lady Justice has stood over the courts of man throughout the ages, holding blindly the scales which balance good against evil.

But who is lady justice? She represents all that is in man that is seemingly good, and right, and fair. Is she a feeling or an ideological impossibility, or merely a representation of the heart of man? Nay, she is simply illustrative of the source of right and wrong, God Himself. And while the whole of man is guilty of injustice in His eyes, we are allowed to move about day-to-day, imitating His righteousness in imputing justice throughout the land.

May God bless you with discomfort at easy answers, half-truths and superficial relationships, so that you will live deep within your heart.

May God bless you with anger at injustice, oppression and exploitation of people, so that you will work for justice, equity and peace.

May God bless you with the tears to shed for those who suffer from pain, rejection, starvation and war, so that you will reach out your hand to comfort them and change their pain into joy.

And may God bless you with the foolishness to think that you can make a difference in the world, so that you will do the things others tell you cannot be done.

It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points outs how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by the dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcoming. But who does actually strive to do the deeds, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumphs of high achievement and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.
