You may know her as our Business Manager, Regina Pingel. To this young child, Regina is a mentor and a friend and someone who visits him at his school each week to read, play, and spend quality time together. Through the Kids Hope Mentoring Program, Regina takes time to ensure that her mentee feels seen, valued, and genuinely loved. C&H team members David Petter and Heather Scalf also volunteer as mentors with Kids Hope, sharing the goal of encouraging youth in our community, one child at a time.
We are proud of Regina, David, and Heather, for faithfully following the call to serve and mentor!
Congratulations to Kelly Curnutt and Doug Hafer for once again being recognized as Super Lawyers! This prestigious recognition places attorneys in the top 5% in the entire state of Texas. Selection for Texas Super Lawyers involves a rigorous, multiphase process that includes independent polling, peer evaluation, and extensive research to identify outstanding lawyers who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. We are proud of Kelly and Doug for their continued leadership, dedication to legal excellence, and commitment to serving our clients and community with integrity.
They have extensive experience with business litigation, will contests and inheritance disputes, personal injury, and oil and gas litigation.
Summer may be winding down, but it’s the perfect time to check a few important things off your list.
August is National Make-A-Will Month, a reminder that taking a little time now can bring peace of mind for years to come. Whether you have been meaning to create a will or it has been a while since you’ve reviewed your estate plan, now is a great opportunity to make sure everything reflects your wishes.
Life changes. Families grow. Priorities shift. Having a plan in place helps protect the people you love and ensures your voice is heard, no matter what the future holds.
Your legacy is more than the things you leave behind. It is the impact you make and the people you care about. We can help you make sure it’s protected.
In 2023, the Curnutt & Hafer team launched our Generosity Purpose Initiative, a structured commitment to intentionally support nonprofit organizations through funds set aside for this very purpose. A percentage of our monthly revenue is earmarked for charitable giving. Sometimes the organizations are local; other times, they have a global reach. Just recently, we helped an AISD elementary school educator with essential classroom needs so students could begin the school year in an optimal learning environment.
Some of our 2026 recipients include Mission Arlington, One Safe Place, Arlington Charities, Arlington Education Foundation, Young Life Arlington, Homeward Bound, and River Legacy Foundation. Our community is fortunate to have a wide range of dedicated charitable organizations serving the needs of our neighbors, and Curnutt & Hafer is honored to support their efforts through our Generosity Purpose Initiative.
