Our Mission Is
To Provide Exceptional Service
At Ellis & Ellis, our mission is to provide exceptional legal representation and client service in every matter. Our Oklahoma lawyers focus all of their efforts on estate planning and related issues, including probate and trust administration, fiduciary litigation, estate and tax planning and tax exempt nonprofit organizations.
With many decades of combined experience, we have developed the expertise and skill to effectively manage all types of matters, both complex and relatively straightforward. Because we have guided clients through so many different situations, we can identify and implement the best course of action.
Why Oklahoma
Families Trust Us
We have served Stillwater and Payne County families throughout the years; now many of our clients are the granddaughters and grandsons of those we first served. Having been entrusted with preserving family assets through the generations is a privilege and honor worthy of our very best work, each and every day.
Attorneys Hal Ellis and LeAnn Drummond Ellis offer a depth and breadth of estate planning, probate planning and tax experience. Our backgrounds afford us the ability to take a holistic approach to estate planning, taking into account tax law and financial instruments and other important considerations.
Our Team
One measure of our expertise is in the fact that Hal Ellis and LeAnn Drummond Ellis both are fellows of The American College of Trust and Estate Counsel. Membership in this group is proof of our having earned this honor through our work for our clients, the scholarly instruction we have provided for our peers in the area of estate law and our work in improving estate and tax laws.
Both Hal and LeAnn have earned the AV* Preeminent designation from Martindale-Hubbell. While these accolades are one measure of our success, we measure success by achieving our client’s goals as effectively and efficiently as possible.
