Joel Mercer
Partner, injury group
I've spent my whole career on the injured person's side of the table.
I grew up in Sand Springs and worked summers on a pipeline crew. I came to the firm straight from law school, and now I lead its injury group.
I handle crash cases, wrongful death claims, and the cases that go to trial. I'll tell you at the first meeting what I think your case is worth and why, and I'll keep telling you as that changes.

How I work
I'd rather tell you something hard early than surprise you late. If an offer is fair, I'll say so. If it isn't, I'll explain what we'd have to do to get more, and what that would cost in time.
When I'm not in the office, I coach youth baseball in Jenks and spend too much time at Tulsa Drillers games.
