The Tulsa family law firm of Fry & Elder is back in the spotlight – again. The vaunted and iconic law firm and its team of elite trial lawyers have been the subject of eight articles by some of Oklahoma’s most highly-regarded media outlets within the past year alone.
“We’ve always prided ourselves on having a working relationship with our local media,” Fry & Elder partner M. Shane Henry said. “We realize the importance of their job and the hard work they put in to bring about more community awareness and involvement.”
The latest article installation came earlier this week when the Tulsa Business & Legal News – an arm of the Tulsa World – profiled the firm and its expansion into immigration and criminal law, adding additional personal and moving into a new state of the art office.

Lead legal correspondent Ralph Schaefer penned the piece and talked in depth with the firm’s senior partners Robert G “Hap” Fry Jr., and James R. Elder. Much of the article focused on how the dynamics of family law have changed over the years to include aspects of immigration law and criminal law – most notably protective orders.
Said Fry in the article: “We are family lawyers, and with the advent of protective orders and violation of protective orders, you get into criminal law. Once a protective order is filed, the person has to leave right then. Any attempts to contact the spouse — man or woman — is a violation.”
Schaefer is no stranger to the law offices of Fry & Elder. In fact, he has written six of the eight pieces featuring the firm within the past year. Below are the additional articles in which Fry & Elder has been featured.
