Les grew up in the small North Texas town of Sherman, where he played high school football under the Friday night lights. He went on to attend Southern Nazarene University as a Zig Ziglar Scholar and was an active member of the Men’s Chorus. He earned a degree in Philosophy and Business before pursuing his Juris Doctor at Oklahoma City University School of Law.

After law school, Les began his legal career practicing tax law at a well-regarded firm in Oklahoma City. There, he developed a passion for advocating on behalf of small businesses and individuals facing the IRS. His deep understanding of the tax code and tenacity in cutting through red tape made him a powerful advocate for clients facing long odds.

Motivated by a long-held dream of building his own practice, Les founded LBJ Law, where he represented both plaintiffs and defendants in a broad range of legal matters. Known for delivering high-quality legal services at a fair price, Les earned a reputation for excellence, integrity, and accessibility. He also served as the chief prosecutor for a large city in the Oklahoma City metro area, bringing the same sense of fairness and accountability to public service.

Les and his family attend Bethany First Church of the Nazarene. Outside of work, Les enjoys spending time with his two dogs, Dozer and Grady, perfecting his barbecue craft, and cheering on his beloved Texas Longhorns.
