After graduating from SMU Law School in 1976, he practiced his entire career at the Texas law firm of Strasburger & Price, and was one of the managing partners there when he and Kathe, his wife of more than 45 years, decided to move to Oklahoma in early 2009. They had bought a ranch near McAlester over 30 years ago, and always loved Oklahoma, even while living in Dallas. In 2001, Gary met Buddy Neal when they were both being honored as members of the American College of Trial Lawyers at the national meeting in New Orleans. Their common Oklahoma bond was a catalyst that ultimately led to the firm hiring Gary’s son when he graduated in 2008. Not long thereafter, Gary and Kathe decided to take up the long-standing suggestion of Gil Steidley and Buddy Neal that they move closer to the ranch so Gary could practice law with his son during his most formative years.
Coming to Oklahoma did not slow Gary’s pace; the move instead energized him beyond his expectations. Devoting more time to the pure practice of law than ever, he strives to hone his skills, including computer legal research and litigation tools, procedure, evidence, and oral advocacy. In his career, he handles an extremely wide variety of civil and commercial litigation. His wife Kathe devotes much of her time as a docent in Tulsa’s Gilcrease Museum of Art, and serves on the boards of a local Symphony League and Park Board, and assists with local charities. Gary also still does pro bono work, contributes to pro bono charities of the Dallas Bar Association and in Tulsa, and maintains friendships with attorneys and judges that have been developed over a lifetime.
