Why did I become a lawyer? I chose law with the intent to bring justice to a broken world, to vindicate the rights of the weak, vulnerable and oppressed, and to confirm that justice is blind, ensuring equality to all people. To me, the law is a calling because I approach it as a way of serving others.
I'm proud to be a veteran trial lawyer with offices in Little Rock and Texarkana. I am licensed to practice law in Arkansas, Lousiana, and Texas.
