Victory in Court: How We Fought for Attorney's Fees from the State of Oklahoma
Oklahoma lawyer James Wirth recently won a victory in court, securing attorney's fees from the state of Oklahoma. In a forfeiture case, the state alleged that someone was dealing CDS and drugs on Wirth's client's property, but Wirth argued that his client had no knowledge or consent of the alleged activity. Despite winning the case, Wirth also fought for attorney's fees and was successful in getting the state to pay $3,500. This victory highlights recent changes in the law that allow for prevailing party attorney's fees in forfeiture cases. If you're facing a similar situation, consult with an experienced attorney to protect your rights. Read more »

It's important to understand that this wasn't an isolated event. Ms. Bristow had been suffering from neglect at Westbrook for a year.
