Atty. Roy Reeves
A Judge once remarked to another attorney “Roy is not afraid of a good fight, in fact, trial is the closest thing he can find to combat without getting shot at.” I took that Judge’s comment as a true compliment, not to myself but to my parents who taught me to work hard, never quit, and always defend those who cannot defend themselves (Semper Vallo). It is also a testament to many years spent in the Marine Corps, including multiple combat tours.
