Corbin G. Keech is in his 5th and final year of architectural studies at Kansas State University. Although Corbin considers himself a typical collegian, he found the combination of his academic accomplishments, college and social lifestyle, willingness to work hard, ability to engage older adults, personal discipline, maturity and extensive travels in Europe to have prepared and enabled him to work with his co-author in the research and writing of DUDE, What Are My Rights? Charlie Fairchild is a Kansas City area attorney with 25 years of experience. He has worked extensively in the Municipal Court system and with young adults. To date, Charlie has assisted probably over 2,000 young adults with their personal and legal conficts involving the law. In addition to being an accomplished trial lawyer, Charlie maintains a general practice representing professionals and owners of small to medium sized businesses. In representing the young adult, Charlie has witnessed a shift over the last 25 years that includes both the heightened responsibilities taken on by the Municipal Court systems, as well as the increased severity and lasting adverse impact of the criminal system on the entire young adult poplulation. It is through this union of day-to-day legal practice for clients and continuing work with youthful people that Charlie developed a strong appreciation and expertise for the legal and social issues facing those age 18 to 25.
