Founded with Purpose
Established in 1885, the firm began its journey as Sheldon Smoke, marking the start of a legal practice dedicated to serving individuals and businesses. Over the decades, the firm evolved through partnerships, operating under names such as Smoke & Gould, Smoke & Smoke, and Franklin Smoke, solidifying its reputation for trust and expertise.
Growth & Expansion
New leadership, broader services, and a growing presence.
As the legal landscape evolved, so did the firm. Through the Littlejohn, Sutherland, and Tarrison years, the practice expanded into corporate law, estate planning, and real estate transactions, adapting to the needs of a rapidly changing world. Each transition brought new expertise and strengthened the firm’s reputation as a leader in legal services.
The Turning Point
Modernization, innovation, and a client-focused approach.
With the formation of Tarrison & Hunter, and later Hunter & Woodford, the firm continued its tradition of excellence while embracing modern legal practices.
A Legacy That Continues
Eventually, under the leadership of Gary Hunter, the firm was rebranded as Gary Hunter Law, reflecting a renewed commitment to personalized, results-driven legal solutions. Today, Gary Hunter Law stands as the culmination of over a century of legal expertise, evolving from its early beginnings to a firm that remains dedicated to providing strategic, reliable, and client-centered legal services. While the name has changed, the firm’s core values of trust, professionalism, and legal excellence continue to guide its future.
