He is one of the best. I recommend him to everyone I know that needs a good attorney. Phillips and associates go above and beyond. I had a case out of town and was at the last minute and he still showed up and went to bat for me. No judgement towards me for making some really bad decisions. He is a very intelligent and hard working attorney. Thank you so much for representing.

Dustin is the best attorney I have ever worked with. He and his team are very very knowledgeable and responsive. He even answered my questions while on his family vacation during the Thanksgiving holiday. He answered all my family members questions in a respectful and honest manner. The defense he provided is top notch. Dustin also recommended programs that the Judge agreed with. Dustin has never lied to me no matter if the truth was hard to face. Shout out to Brittany for carrying forward the same decorum and attitude as Dustin. She answered emails within the hour. The whole team is SIMPLY THE BEST!!!! I don’t know what I would have done without them.

I have nothing but good comments to report on my experience working with Matt Fleischer.
My sister and I were the executors of our mother's trust after she passed away. Her mineral rights assets had not been entered into the trust, so we hired Matt to probate them over to a new trust for us. We did not live in Oklahoma but Matt took care of everything and was very easy to work with. He let us know up front what the total cost would be and each step of the process, including court dates, documents we would need to provide and/or get notarized, etc. Everything was handled via phone and email, with certain documents eventually being mailed. Fees were right in line compared to other firms in OK. Finally, I don't think I ever called Matt where he himself didn't answer the phone - that is what I call responsive and helpful.
I would recommend Matt's firm to anyone needing legal help in Oklahoma!

This law firm was referred to me for a name change. Brady opened my case, was meticulous in explaining the process and proactive in addressing my questions. Heather Sizemore on his team handled the court appearance, and was absolutely wonderful and provided immediate follow up. The paralegals communicated with me by text before the court date, and everyone was synchronized on a joint text chat - this firm is incredibly easy to deal with, didn’t have to chase them once and treated me like a big client at all times. Highly recommend!

We found Kevin on the web. We needed an elder law attorney for our wills when we moved from Washington. We moved my wife's sister from a nursing home in Washington to Oklahama. Kevin helped us with Medicaid and getting her account set up. We were very thankful for his knowledge and getting this done for us.
It would of been a nightmare for us to do on our own. It went through with no issues.
He is continuing on some more work with trusts for us. We look forward to using Kevin for future legal needs.
Thank you Ron and Marilee Tate

Mr. Miller was a wonderful man who was caring and professional in handling my father's trust. The family dynamic was such that is was a blended family for over thirty years that quickly turned into a Cinderella type situation upon the deaths of our parents. Mr. Miller fought for me, tooth and nail, until I was completely satisfied with the outcome. Not once did I feel as though I was short on information or not kept in the loop with any transaction. His fee is well earned!!! Thank you Mr. Miller!!!

Didnt prepare me for court, didn't interview my witnesses, didn't seem to have spent any time preparing himself for hearings, ignored my concerns about being ready for court, and acted very nervous before, during, and after the last hearing. It was hard to get any communication from him, usually taking multiple calls and/or emails and a week of time to get one response. He never talked about our strategy for court, proper court procedure, or really anything besides basic questions at the beginning of the process, which he didn’t seem to remember, as he asked a couple of the same questions minutes before the last hearing. Judging by the questions he dodged, i believe he improperly did the paperwork on my case(legally attested to mailing a notice 2 days before he actually did, and possibly did not send it via the correct mailing method). This would also explain why he didn’t argue the merits of the other party filing a response too late(which he promised to), because his mistake would have been exposed in court. His lack of preparation caused me a panic attack on the stand, in court, and on the record, and his cross examination was aggressive while still not being very effective imo. In the last hearing he was not very good. I was dragged through the mud on record and he didnt even know enough about me to be able to mitigate the damage, or correct the narrative, while i was too emotionally distraught to fight for myself. I believe his lack of preparation and due care resulted in the almost 2 months i sat in anxiety waiting for the ruling. His response to criticism was to the effect of "but we won so it doesnt matter". He risked my whole case by lack of preparation, and did not seem to care at all about the risk to me and my reputation. I would not trust him to represent me again. A decent lawyer should prepare to win, not expect to. He even had the gall to say that opposing counsel was just taking a paycheck and not really trying early in the process. Dont waste your money, you are better off pro se than with his poor representation. Arrogant, hypocritical, careless, dismissive, and untrustworthy.

It's important for me to take a moment to thank Davis Business Law - they have been a steady partner and helpful advisor for my 3 different companies for nearly a decade. They are the experts and Matt Davis is a unique attorney with a better way of seeing your opportunities and handling legal concerns.
The have advised me well with great ideas and planning. Specifically, the have helped me launch 3 businesses, making sure I don't shoot myself in the foot during the process. They were involved from the beginning of each one. His team are experts and worked so well with me.
As on ongoing resource, they've responded quickly to the legal fires that popped up in my business as they do for all owners. They jump on an issue and to get that fire out asap.
And they worked with me through a year-long (not their fault) sale process of a 7-figure revenue company of mine. Sound advice on the condition of the sale helped me receive the maximum value for the sale.
It is simply worth your time to talk to Matt or his team. There is no higher recommendation possible.

I called this firm at the referral of my personal injury lawyer. I’ve been dealing with SSA for 4 years now and have had little success. I was really hoping I could get some help from someone who knows the system well. Unfortunately, I called and spoke with their receptionist. She was very unhelpful. She was confused as to why I was calling if I already had a company handling my appeal. I explained to her that this was a mandated situation and the company handling it is who contracts with my LTD (long term disability company). She was standoffish and continued to express her perplexity as to why I would need Emily if I already have a team. I replied saying it didn’t seem like she was interested in helping people who are new to this process and don’t understand the intricacies of disability and wished her a good day. I’m very disappointed and caution anyone who is nervous or fearful of running into more blockades in their disability journey. This place showed me zero empathy or even curiosity into my situation.

I have used Randy as my attorney for over 10 years. Whenever I have found myself in need of an attorney, Randy's knowledge and expertise have always exceeded my expectations. Randy is very easy to talk to and he explains what is going on so that you can understand. In my opinion there is not another attorney that shows the compassion and the dedication to his clients as Randy does, and trust me I have used others and they were nowhere near Randy's league.

I have been involved in the legal system for 25 years although not as an attorney and am familiar with Mr. Calvert's work. There is not a finer attorney out there. A high level of intelligence is a tremendous asset for an attorney but means little if it is not accompanied by a broad legal knowledge, very strong work ethic, and intense commitment to his clients. Mr. Calvert's success as an attorney is due primarily to the fact that he possesses all of these traits.

He said right away he could help and I made glad I made the decision to go with Tim. Tim is very knowledgeable and explained the process very clearly for someone who has never used an attorney. We sat through a mediation together and was very impressed at his knowledge of case law and how best to proceed by explaining the pros and cons. I would highly recommend Tim.

Mr.Beets did an excellent job filing my divorce, gaining cival joint custody of my children and helping myou husband and I to gain sole custody of his children. He also help my son when he was in legal trouble getting it settled with no problems. The Custody battle was long and ugly and he stuck with us through it all, giving sound advice and working late to ensure we gained custody of our children. He has also worked to keep child suppprt going even though it has stopped a few time. He always goes right back to court for us to ensure our children are being provided for . He is fair and reasonable in the cost of his service as well. My husband now also used him to file bankruptcy and he did it in a timely manner and helped him get back on track. I am very thankful for his expertise. He is strategic in how he approaches every case. I highly would recommend him for anything legally you are struggling with. He will not bullshit you by telling you upfront if you have a case, if it's worth it and he will fight hard for you if he accepts your case.. He actually cares about the people he helps and he has become a true friend over this last 6 years he has represented me. Thank you Timothy Beets for all your hard work and dedication to our family. You are truly gifted!!!

I was in so deep with IRS by the time I reached out to Mr. Jeff Trevillion that I was a wreck. I thought I could handle the situation but they were pretty brutal. I met with Mr. Trevillion and by the time I left his office I knew I was in good hands. He is a fighter and he knows how to win. Do not try to handle IRS on your own and do not throw your money away with the hungry lawyers on tv and mail ads....call Mr. Trevillion and get some sleep!

I could not have asked for a better attorney for my personal injury case.
Dan Hays did a top-notch job from beginning to end. He consistently kept my husband & I informed on the progress of the case. Additionally, when I needed to make decisions he provided me with well-rounded & thought-out counsel. And he kept me out of the weeds with items I did not need to be bothered with; and while that sounds simple, as a full-time working professional, that's what I needed and wanted Dan to do: just handle the case, and handle it well.
Without a doubt, he handled all aspects of the litigation process with absolute professionalism. Should I ever be in a situation again where I need legal representation, Dan Hays will be who we call.
