Thanks to Members of the Tulsa County Bar Association, calls were answered yet again for the latest Channel 2 Works For You - Call a Lawyer Program on Tuesday, August 10th.   Nine Tulsa County Bar Association attorneys took part, volunteering their expertise to give legal advice to callers.  TCBA has been holding call-in programs for the past 5 years and have taken over 6,000 phone calls!

Nearly every six weeks, the Tulsa County Bar Association asks attorneys to volunteer a few hours of their time to help the general public with legal questions.   This Tuesday, the volunteers fielded a whopping 174 calls.

The attorneys that participated on Tuesday were:

  • Austin Keeney
  • Cara Wells
  • John Harker
  • Tim Pickens
  • Mo Bernstein
  • Kathy Sherwood
  • Rich Badillo
  • Mary Bundren
  • David Davis

A big “thanks” goes out to all the volunteers that make this very important program possible.

If you are interested in volunteering your services, please contact Shelley Holmes at sholmes@tulsabar.com or call 584-5243 ext 221.

The next Call a Lawyer Program is scheduled for September 21st.  For more information:  http://oklaw.org/link.cfm?3136
