Tom Sullivent has been practicing since 1996. We have been in court a lot, and we have seen both the benefits of proper planning and the messes, anger, and sadness due to the failure to plan.
We are focused on planning for death, disability, businesses, and asset protection. Our expertise in these areas allows us to provide tailored solutions that meet the specific needs of each client.
Our clients can easily and securely sign legal documents from anywhere at any time, removing the need for in-person meetings or physically mailing documents.

We are a small team, but we are a team. Standalone attorneys get overwhelmed, go on vacation or get sick. If that happens, their system breaks down. Large firms just have too much overhead and charge too much. We feel like our team is the right balance, experienced and efficient, allowing us to keep our prices lower even though our services are superior.
We currently serve all of Oklahoma.
While a significant part of estate planning involves planning for one’s death, which could involve a will, a trust, or some other method to assist in the transfer of their assets after their death, it also consists of planning for disability. Planning for disability can be as simple as determining who would assist you in the event you become disabled and how you would be assisted. It can also be much more complex and involve planning such as Medicaid planning, which involves finding ways to preserve your assets in the event you have to go to assisted living or some form of long-term care. The person assisting you with the planning needs to not only be somewhat experienced in this type of planning, but experienced in what happens if the planning is not done. For example, the various types of court proceedings and experience with the government organizations that could be involved. The planning is done to help people and their families avoid these court hearings and any difficulties associated with government organizations.
Probate is the process that a family goes through if a loved one has passed away while owning an asset in their individual name, failed to have co-owners who are considered joint tenants, and/or failed or were unable to list beneficiaries on the asset. This usually involves hiring an attorney as the petition must be filed in court and the probate rules, which are complex, must be followed.

The legal system is complex and very unforgiving. Many individuals and families have found themselves in difficult situations due to a lack of knowledge about the law or an inability to research and understand it. If you don't know the law well enough or don't have access to the resources needed to properly research and understand it, then you should not attempt to create legal documents on your own. Doing so could result in serious legal problems down the road that could have been avoided with proper guidance from an experienced attorney. It's always best to seek out professional help when dealing with legal matters, so that you can ensure that your rights are protected and your interests are represented.
Whether you need to meet in person, over the phone, or through video conferencing, MEUS Law is here to help. We offer morning, afternoon, and evening appointments seven days a week.
