Hall Estill, Oklahoma’s leading law firm, announced today it was named as a “Highly Recommended Law Firm” in 2015 by Benchmark Litigation, a leading national law publication. Additionally, five of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized as “local litigation stars.”  

Attorneys Mark K. BlongewiczJ. Kevin Hayes, Michael E. Smith, Steven W. Soulé and D.K. "Ken" Williams, Jr. were those selected as “local litigation stars.” 

“It is an honor to be recognized as a highly recommended law firm and a great privilege to work with a team of hard working attorneys who make that recognition possible,” Hall Estill Managing Partner Michael D. Cooke said. “I am thrilled to see them recognized as litigation stars and future litigation starts for their work ethic and dedication. This is another great example of the firm’s commitment to providing the best legal counsel possible for our clients.”

Benchmark Litigation is the only publication on the market to focus exclusively on litigation in the U.S. The guide’s results are the culmination of a six-month research period that allows our researchers to conduct extensive interviews with litigators and their clients. These interviews are conducted to examine the casework handled by the firms and ask sources to offer their professional opinions on litigators practicing within their state or national practice areas.
