We hold these truths to be self evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.  That, to secure these rights, governments are institued from men, deriving their just power from the consent of the governed.

Declaration of Independence, 1776.

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.'

    Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., August 28, 1963

The Law Offices of Matthew W. Dietz, P.L. was established in 2001 to ensure that every person is afforded the dignity envisioned by the framers of the Declaration of Independence and Dr. King.
