Some have described me as “unwavering”
when it comes to principles. Others say that I exhibit the trait of
"loyalty to a fault" or that I am "utterly relentless” when pursuing an
objective. As your attorney, I promise to be a loyal advocate and to be
unwavering in the pursuit of your goals. I am a zealous advocate
that does not shy away from conflict and litigation. I believe that the
strongest weapon that an attorney can have is knowledge of his case. I
will aggressively prepare your case for litigation while attempting to
resolve the issues on favorable terms - a kind of "peace through
strength" approach to the practice of law.
What do other lawyers say?
"In this day of large law firms and
multi-million dollar budgets for state and federal governments, don't
ever forget that ONE dedicated and talented criminal defense lawyer took
on the entire state of Oklahoma Department of Corrections, Attorney
General's Office and beat the hell out of them. Who says the days
of the solo practitioner and Lone Wolf are gone? Not me."
- Jack Dempsey Pointer
Former President of the Oklahoma Criminal Defense Lawyers Association
