Giving to celebrate the past 20 years, and to help build a better world around us
In 2001, we started small, when Jim Morton and John Gettys joined forces to form a new law firm that would help their community meet the legal challenges that faced them.
To celebrate 20 years of growth and success in that community, the firm’s many attorneys and staff reached out to share thanks by making contributions.
In 2021, attorneys and staff selected a recipient monthly to receive $2,000 to commemorate our 20th anniversary.
