Steve Rice Law

Freedom is something particularly meaningful to our practice. It’s not just being removed from physical confinement but also challenging the behavioral restraints that the government imposes on us all. Government is necessary and, in countless ways, helpful for lifting us all to a better life. But we are always mindful that just because something is deemed by lawmakers as legal or illegal, that does not mean it is right or wrong. We’re grateful for a country that allows us to go to work and challenge the government with civility and the protection of law-a privilege that requires constant vigilance and maintenance from both our prosecutors and defense attorneys alike.
