ATTORNEY ADVERTISEMENT

Lieutenant Colonel Lionel Lee Hector (USA, Ret.)  is a sole practitioner  

 in Watertown, New York with a practice dedicated the needs of the average person

and small business operations.  His areas of practice include matrimonial law (divorce), 

real estate and small business transactions including litigation in these areas.

Lionel Lee Hector was born a long time ago in East Hampton, New York.  

Subsequent to his graduation from high school in Fort Lauderdale, Florida and 

an aborted effort to obtain a degree in theology from Atlantic Christian College 

(now Barton College) in Wilson, North Carolina, Hector enlisted in the Army

in the rank of private in 1963.  Subsequently selected to attend Officer Candidate

 School (OCS), he was commissioned a second lieutenant of infantry in May of 1967.

  In the course of his military career, Hector served overseas in the Republics of Korea,

the Republic of Vietnam and the Republic of Germany.  He is a 

graduate of the Army's Airborne School, the JFK Special Warfare School,

Infantry Officers Advanced Course, the Army's Command and General Staff College

and the Department of Defense Language Institute.  His military awards include

the Legion of Merit, the Bronze Star, the Meritorious Service Medal, the 

Army Commendation Medal and the Good Conduct Medal.  He has also been

awarded the U.S Army parachute badge, the Vietnamese parachute badge and 

Combat Infantryman's Badge

In addition to a Juris Doctor earned at the State University of New York

at Buffalo in 1998, Hector has an undergraduate degree in political science

from Columbus State University, Columbus, Georgia and a graduate degree

in international relations from the University of Kansas at Lawrence, Kansas.  As 

a result of both his civilian and military educational endeavors, Hector speaks

English, Canadian (eh?) and German fluently and French and Spanish 

well enough to find a bar or a bathroom when necessary.

If all of that were not enough, Lionel Lee Hector also holds an Federal 

Aviation Administration Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) license, a United States

 Parachute Association jumpmaster certificate, a New York State Advanced

 Emergency Medical Technician (EMT-CC) certificate and Advanced

Amateur Radio License KG2BP.  He plays the trombone, the piano 

and the guitar (the latter about as well as he speaks Spanish).

 

The Hector Law office has existed in Jefferson County since 1998 and 

has served over a thousand clients all over the world in that time.

"I am proud to be a member of the legal profession and particularly

pleased that I was able to come to this profession so late in

life with a little broader perspective and a bit more life

experience than most of my younger colleagues. That 

said, my pleasure in the practice of law is 

occasionally diminished by the fact that

some problems, no matter how urgent,

 simply do not lend themselves 

to resolution in law."
