"We grew up here. I did and we've been trying to give back to the community every year we've been in practice and what we try to do is identify a need in the community and make a difference usually we focus is as children," states Scott Vorhees, Attorney. 

Each hat and and shirt has a Joplin eagle embroidered on it.
