Lai & Turner Law Firm

This is an exceptional law firm in OKC! Jimmy, Braden and their team are highly dependable, and…read morethey have also added new attorneys in IP like Mick McCarthy who is a local legend. Whenever I have done business matters with this firm, I can always expect stellar results with the optimal value, price/cost and quality! Their offices are also conveniently located on Classen. If you have any matters involving family law, immigration, real estate or criminal law (and very soon IP like questions on patents, trademarks, copyrights or trade secrets) - Lai & Turner is the place to go. Highly recommended!

I am extremely disappointed with the level of professionalism at this firm. Although my case has…read morebeen resolved, I have repeatedly attempted to contact Lai and Turner regarding the return of my remaining funds, with no success. They were responsive when I initially retained their services and had money to pay, but since the resolution of my case, I have been ignored. I have left multiple voicemails and sent emails--most recently over a week ago--requesting an update and the return of my funds, yet no one has responded. My case has not been formally closed, and I still have not received the balance in my client account. This lack of communication and failure to act on a simple, reasonable request is unacceptable and highly unprofessional. I expected better from a legal practice and hope this issue will be resolved promptly.

I had a deeply frustrating experience with Bria that I feel others should be aware of before…read moretrusting her with their personal injury case. She held my case for approximately 21 months, during which time she repeatedly reassured me that she was committed to pursuing it and would not allow the statute of limitations deadline to become an issue. Based on those assurances, I trusted her to move the case forward appropriately and in a timely manner. However, despite nearly two years of representation, she ultimately chose to drop my case with only about two months remaining before the statute of limitations expired. This left me in an extremely difficult position, with very limited time to secure new representation and protect my legal rights. The most concerning part of this experience was not just the decision to withdraw, but the prolonged period of inaction combined with consistent reassurances that everything was under control. This created a false sense of security and ultimately put my case at serious risk. I understand that attorneys may decide to withdraw from cases for various reasons, but doing so after such a long period-especially so close to a critical legal deadline-demonstrates a lack of professional responsibility and consideration for the client's situation. I would strongly advise others to carefully consider their options and maintain close oversight of their case timeline if choosing to work with this firm.

Tuan has personally been very helpful with giving me legal advice. He has been extremely available…read morecompared to other attorneys I've dealt with. He is very knowledgeable in the law in general. I would highly recommend him and his firm.

This law firm doesn't care about the client they have their own best interests first. I was…read morereferred to them on October of 2016. I was in a accident. I have been lied to. My calls were screened and it is now oct 2018. My case still isn't settled. I was told by one aid a year ago that if I held out and let them take the physicians to court that I would receive a significant amount more. She has since been fired she also told me that they wouldn't take a higher percentage but I signed the contract without reading it fully and taking her word. A great mistake. That was not true either they received the extras. This is the first time I have ever been in an accident and the attorney received more than the person that was injured. They didn't do anything illegal but I feel it is morally unethical. You would think they were in the accident. To add insult to injury; my case went to court on June 29th 2018. It is Oct 19th 2018. Funds still haven't been disbursed. My breakdown was 7,650.00 Medical bills were settled at 1583.00 Attorney too 50 percent of the gross at 3,655.75 Left me with 2072.50 They didn't even split the court cost I had to eat all those too. I am 44 years old and this is by far the worse representation I have had by any attorney in any capacity. I even referred a client to them. Two weeks after I signed my contract. Their case has closed they were dissatisfied as well. I haven't received my referral from that case. I will never recommend this form to anyone. I hate I walked thru the door. The driver of the vehicle received 3000 dollars for the same accident a year ago. He didn't sell immediate medical attention. He in fact worked a week before he even spoke to his attorney. In my case I did everything right accept choose the right legal representation. Hopefully my post will save someone else from going thru this unsatisfactory representation.

I had a different family attorney for close to three years fighting over custody and visitation…read morewith my son. In that three years I had only lost ground and in late 2018 my ex had filed a motion to modify, which lead to another trial Oct 2019. Long story short - I fired my old attorney and hired Lawrence one week before trial. Not only was he prepared, he kicked her butt and made her attorney look like a fool. In ONE week he was more familiar with my case than my previous attorney was, quite literally after working with her for years. Ladies/Gents - here's the deal - if you're looking for a family attorney this is your man. After going through this with my old attorney I had to relearn the whole "do it right the first time" thing. Seriously, had I hired him the first time, and I spoke with him years ago prior to hiring my old attorney but didn't because of cost, I would have saved close to 20k dollars over the years. The man's hourly rate is expensive and that's because he knows his worth, and it's worth every penny. I don't usually write reviews but this man really does deserve it. As a matter of fact, he just got out of court fighting for me this morning because my ex wanted me to pay her court costs. Guess what? He kicked her butt again and I don't have to pay her a penny, which saved me 12k dollars. Just this morning that's what he saved me. If I ever need an attorney for anything again, no matter what it is I'm going to at least attempt to higher Lawrence.

About a year ago, I found myself in Lawrence Goodwin's office 24 hrs after my daughter and I had…read moreleft home and the dangerous husband that went with it. The framed Scarface poster on the wall told me that I had come to the right place. I needed someone who would fight the battles that I was too tired to fight myself. I wanted a warrior, a shark, a pit-bull; someone to stand up and say, "She's not afraid of your threats any longer! " I got all that and more in Lawrence. He listened carefully to the entirety of my situation, picking it apart, and asking a lot of questions until he was confident he understood it all. He told me right away what he could and couldn't do for me. He made a promise to always "give it to me straight" throughout the process, so as not to get my hopes up for results founded in unrealistic expectations. I hired him immediately and he told me exactly what to do, what not to do, and for anything else not previously mentioned - to check with him first. I had walked in there that day feeling confused, scared, and discouraged. After talking to Lawrence, I felt like I was a woman with a plan. I had confidence. I had hope. Lawrence immediately sprung into action once I left his office. My divorce ended up lasting over 11 months and went all the way to a full day trial. It has been litigated in 2 different counties. There have been NUMEROUS hearings, a protective order, contempt of court charges, and changing of attorneys multiple times (on the opposing side). Add to that, my ex-husband did every wicked thing you could possibly imagine to try to force me to back down to his demands. Lawrence has been with me through it all, since day one. He has been my voice of reason when my emotions were spiraling out of control. When you're going through a divorce, you're an emotional wreck. You're not in a good place to make quick, educated, major decisions that will affect the rest of your life and your children's lives. Lawrence will tell you when to calm down, get over it, move on, or put your big girl panties on and get ready for the battle. Trusting a new person is not an easy thing to do, especially when your spouse has just betrayed you or let you down. I remember in the beginning, really questioning a lot of the things that Lawrence would say to me or tell me to do. I would argue with him and he would take the time to explain to me why he was right. There is only one thing I hate about Lawrence Goodwin: the man is always right. He knows the law. He knows all of the judge's personalities, styles, and how they will respond to everything. The first time we went to court, I saw all of this right before my eyes. I learned to trust him and now I have such a strong confidence in him that he has gone to court without me on several occasions, as he is fully capable of arguing on my behalf. Watching Lawrence in the courtroom is like watching Leonardo da Vinci paint, Mozart play the piano, or Michael Jordan slam dunk a basketball. He was born to be an attorney and is a master of his craft. Lawrence always shows up to court looking like a million bucks, in a designer suit. He has an entourage of interns and staff following closely behind. It's very intimidating for the opposing party. No matter what the judge or the other side throws at him, he thinks FAST on his feet, shoots down whatever issue was at hand and moves on to his next point. He commands complete control of the courtroom and NOTHING causes him hesitation. Lawrence makes the opposing side sorry they even brought up whatever issue it was. It's like, "Oh, you didn't know this was my courtroom? Stick around and you'll see who's boss." People who were sitting in the courtroom during a few of my hearings have actually come up to my family and I and said, "WOW", referring to Lawrence kicking butt and taking names. If you think all lawyers are pretty much the same and will get you what you want, think again. I have sat in family court in absolute SHOCK, watching the timid, soft spoken, attorneys in other cases who were completely out of their comfort zones. You cannot do it alone or without Lawrence Goodwin on your side. My divorce was final last month and I was awarded sole custody of my daughter. I also got 99% of everything else I wanted. It wasn't easy (although Lawrence sure made it look that way in court) and it also wasn't cheap. But, today I am debt free, since Lawrence made sure my ex got all of the marital debt, and I have my little girl. We are moving on to a great life and I am not afraid of whatever the future holds because I know that Lawrence Goodwin is always just a phone call away.
