Every year, our firm takes an afternoon off in August and we go golfing. Some of us are certainly more polished golfers than others (and some of us certainly take more swings than others), but skill and stamina aren’t really the point of this event. This outing has been going on for 20 years and […]
McCarty Law, in addition to providing excellent service and care to clients, places a focus on improving employees’ lives and overall well-being. The company garden is one of the myriad projects which demonstrate this effort. Living in an apartment during the school year does not allow me to fulfill my love of gardening so when […]
When I was a kid, I loved Oreo cookies. I liked to twist them apart, lick out the creamy center, then devour the crunchy cookies. And I loved to smile with blackened teeth for about ten minutes after eating them. When my daughter got to be a toddler, we would eat Oreos together, just like […]
Our family has had a great summer vacation so far. My son’s baseball team took second place in their tournament, my daughter helped backstage at TeenStage’s great production of ‘The Addams Family,’ and my wife spent a week at a dude ranch in Wyoming with her friends riding horses. But while they’re having all this […]
It’s hard to believe, but we’re less than six months away from Christmas. So after stores take down their back-to-school displays, the Christmas ones will go up.

Some of the most heated legal issues in our world today involve the legalization of medicinal marijuana and gun control. And while they may seem unrelated, in some states, they can become a joint problem. Last month, Oklahoma became the 30th state to legalize medicinal marijuana. Marijuana has been proven to be helpful in treating […]
On July 3rd, McCarty Law held our annual firm picnic complete with food, fun and fireworks. This year, we held the picnic on the same night as the Memorial Park fireworks so we could enjoy the show right here from our own backyard. There were about 100 people in attendance at the picnic, which included […]
Identity theft is a scary and common problem today. People generally try to steal someone else’s identify for their own personal gain, typically financially. But in an unusual case of a stolen identity, a Canadian woman pretended to be her boyfriend to tank his career, forcing him to stay with her. Eric Abramovitz was one […]
Shortly after I graduated from law school, my wife and I got engaged. Since she lived just two doors down from my parents, I stayed living at home until we got married. I would walk over to her house to pick her up for a date and then walk her home at night. Then I […]
When I was a kid, I couldn’t wait for basketball season to come around. One of the best parts of preparing for the season was to pick out shoes, which typically were Air Jordans. Which shoe a kid chooses is typically driven by which NBA star he or she wants to emulate. Today, LeBron James […]
