50 Years Ago...

  • Gerald R. Ford was sworn in as the 38th President of the United States.

  • Hank Aaron, then with the Atlanta Braves, broke Babe Ruth’s decades-held home run record of 714 by hitting just one more. 

  • The first “microcomputer”, the Altair 8800, debuted in Popular Mechanics magazine for $395.

  • Other inventions that appeared this year included Post-It notes and the UPC bar code. 

  • An almost complete hominid skeleton over 3 million years old is discovered in Africa. Scientists named her Lucy.

  • The federal government passed the National Maximum Speed Law with a limit of 55 mph on all interstate roads.

Also in 1974, our Firm's cofounders, Donald E. Skeeters and R. Terry Bennett joined forces and created a partnership called Skeeters and Bennett. Through hard work, sleepless nights, and dedication to their clients, Don and Terry established a rock-solid foundation for our firm. David Wilson and later partners added more strategic knowledge and a drive for results that expanded Skeeters, Bennett, Wilson & Humphrey into the full-service, trusted advisory team it is today.

As we reflect on the past 50 years, we cannot help but think of you, our clients, with tremendous gratitude. Our Firm’s success would not be possible without the thousands of people who have trusted us to care for their legal needs. We feel privileged to share in the growth of families as they establish their legacies. We’re honored by the business owners who rely on us to help turn their ideas into reality.

We look forward to serving each of you in the decades that come. Our Firm was founded on a unique commitment to our clients, and although many things change in today’s fast-paced world, our commitment to our clients never will.
