Biography:
I have been practicing law for almost 30 years almost all of it involving family law. In 1994, I graduated Cum Laude from Texas A&M School of Law f/k/a Texas Wesleyan School of Law. That Summer, I sat for the bar exam and was licensed the following November. In 2004, I was recruited by a boutique family law firm, Holmes, Diggs and Eames. While at the Holmes firm, I applied for and was accepted by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization to sit for the board certification exam. In 2007 I was Board Certified in Family Law. Board Certification means that an attorney so designated has gone through a thorough examination of his or her experience and passed an arduous two day exam covering all aspects of Texas Family Law. Afterwards, I became a member of the Texas Academy of Family Law Specialists, a member of the College of the State Bar of Texas, a member the American Bar Association Family Law Section, Texas Bar Association Family Law Section and Dallas Bar Association Family Law Section. In addition, my expertise in family law has been recognized by various groups such as the American Registry, Martindale-Hubble, National Academy of Family Law Attorneys, etc.
I was born and raised in Dallas, Texas and a fourth generation Texan. Babs and I have been married for 33 years. We have three wonderful children all of whom are grown. Patton, my oldest, was married this last year and is expecting his first child this Christmas. My second, Alexander, builds jets while my youngest, Janey, is a Junior at the University of Tennessee.
In my spare time (weekends), I enjoy cooking, playing golf, and hiking/camping. When I am able, I like to get away to do some fishing and in the Fall my children and I go dove and pheasant hunting. I am a member of Shriners International, the National Rifle Association, the Dallas Safari Club and the Knights of Columbus.
I enjoy my early mornings over a cup of coffee, quiet time in His Word. Usually, reading a chapter from Proverbs. Afterwards, some Fox Business News.
