About this firm

FRICK POWELL LLP traces its history back to the 1940's. The firm was originally comprised of Robert C. Enlow and Bernard "Bunny" Frick and was known as "Enlow and Frick." Mr. Enlow retired from the practice of law in 1950. After working four years at the law firm of Walker and Walker, William D. Powell joined Mr. Frick as an associate in 1956. In 1960, Mr. Frick and Mr. Powell became partners and the firm's name was changed to "Frick and Powell." Mr. Frick died in 1967 and Mr. Powell continued to operate the firm under the name of "Frick and Powell." John B. Whinrey began his legal career in 1967 as an associate in one of Evansville's larger law firms and became a partner in that firm in 1972. After 15 years, John became frustrated with practicing law in a large firm and opened the Law Office of John B. Whinrey in 1992. When Mr. Powell died in 1987, John and Garland W. Cravens, the sole surviving partner of Frick and Powell, merged their practices creating what would eventually become our present firm, "FRICK POWELL LLP." David Harris joined the firm in 1996 and became a partner in 2001. Mark A. McAnulty joined the firm in 2006 and became a partner in 2008.

At a time when "bigger" is often considered synonymous with "better," we believe our clients are best served by the personal attention that we are able to provide them in a small office setting. This belief is reflected in our mission statement:

To provide excellent legal services to a broad range of clients, in a caring and personal way, with the highest ethical standards, at reasonable fees, in a timely and efficient manner, in a small law firm setting.

We offer a wide range of legal services, including: wills, trusts, and estate planning; probate/estate administration; adoption and guardianships; real estate law; labor and employment law; litigation and appellate advocacy; title insurance; elder law and Medicaid planning; family law; and collections.

Our offices are located in the historic "Parvin House," a Victorian-designed structure, located at the entrance of Evansville's Historic Preservation area. Although our setting provides us with ties to an earlier and simpler era, we make a conscious effort not to be lost in the past by keeping abreast of the latest legal research and support technologies.

We believe it is important to be active in both the legal community and our community as a whole. We are members of several state and local bar associations. We actively participate in various committees of the Evansville Bar Association (EBA) and one of our attorneys is a past EBA president. We speak at seminars and programs sponsored by various organizations. We also contribute to the community by serving on boards of directors of numerous charitable organizations and by being active in church and community organizations.
