We never miss a reason to celebrate with cake around here! We wish Good Luck to Julie Gragg-Landes on her next adventure.
9-11 is one of those days where we will always remember where we were and what we were doing when it happened. I was driving my kids to daycare crossing I40 when the first plane hit. Life changed so much in those moments and we didn't even know it yet. It's a day that touched the world that we will never forget.

As strong women practicing law we've encountered our share of sexism in Court. Thankful to see a judge take such a stand but also dismayed at the continued sexism in practice. That someone thought they could behave in such a manner is just sad.

We love hearing from our happy clients!
We made the Washington Post! These cases are hard and a lot of brave young women have come forward to talk about their experiences. It takes bravery to speak out against the system. Ignoring or minimizing sexual assault is a symptom of a bigger problem in society of devaluing women and their voice.

Mr. Pig and I have been fielding calls all day about our latest lawsuit. Yesterday BLG and our partner firm DLG filed suit against Mt. St. Mary High School over the failure to address sexual assault allegations on campus. Protecting children and families in the court system is our top focus!
Rachel has spent the last 11 years of her career focused on investigating wrongdoing in Oklahoma Government and has successfully represented many families and individuals against state and federal agencies for wrongdoing and violation of civil rights.
She has fought to protect the rights of Oklahomans to be safe and raise their families free from interference from the government. Rachel has also fought for employees to keep their jobs when they speak out about corruption and to protect Oklahomans from illegal government overreach.
We are a firm that has a strong focus on family. Our passion is protecting, defending, and building families and children in Oklahoma to ensure they receive the legal help they deserve.
We place a strong emphasis on approaching each case with honesty, empathy, and an unwavering resolve to find a solution that is both beneficial and just. Learn more at https://blglawok.com/
Pig is teaching us about work-life balance.
Time to hustle. Justice waits for no one.
The aspect of our firm that we are proudest of is the ability to help the individuals and families who might not otherwise receive or feel like they can get help.
We demonstrate this by taking on many cases that other firms think are too hard or too controversial. Our core focus is to do our utmost to improve the current state of the justice system, the quality of life of our clients, and protect the rights of children and families.
“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people...” Galatians 6:7-9
