Designed Exclusively for Oklahoma In-House Counsel Statewide
OKLAHOMA CITY – Crowe Dunlevy is pleased to announce the third “In-House Oklahoma” event of 2026, scheduled for Thursday, September 3, 2026, at Tulsa Country Club. In-House Oklahoma, a community of in-house leaders who share legal best-practices in a local, peer-to-peer, networking community, hosts nearly 800 in-house counsels representing over 400 companies across the state. The goal of the initiative is to build relationships and exchange best practices through strategic programming and networking hosted in Crowe Dunlevy’s Oklahoma office cities: Oklahoma City and Tulsa.
In-House Oklahoma’s mission is to be the choice organization for networking, best practice exchange, and legal department thought leadership among the state’s in-house counsel.
“Crowe Dunlevy created In-House Oklahoma to be a relationship-building conduit for in-house counsel. Unlike similar organizations, only in-house counsel with significant leadership and management responsibilities in a corporation, non-profit organization or government agency are invited to attend,” says Crowe Dunlevy’s Will Hoch, a shareholder and director in the firm’s Oklahoma City office and chairman of the firm’s Marketing Committee.
“Besides Crowe Dunlevy as the host firm, there are no other law firms or other service/product providers invited or participating,” says Crowe Dunlevy’s John Eix, the firm’s Director of Business Development & Marketing. “In-House Oklahoma is intended exclusively for Oklahoma’s in-house counsel – with the goal of facilitating and fostering relationships exclusively among the state’s in-house counsel professionals.”
The forum’s next panel discussion event features the following panelists:
- Rob Peters, Managing Director, The Battersea Group, LLC (moderator)
- James Colvin, General Counsel, Manhattan Construction
- Karissa Cottom, VP & Assistant General Counsel – Corporate Strategic Development, Power Innovation, Upstream, & PAC, Williams
- Jennifer Johnson, Chief Legal Officer, CREOKS Health Services
“In-house innovation comes from diverse sources, and the most direct path to solving the problems in-house leadership faces every day is through collaboration with fellow legal contacts and colleagues. In-House Oklahoma is purposely designed for those thought leaders who understand the power of collaboration,” says Crowe Dunlevy’s Adam W. Childers, the firm’s President & CEO.
If in-house counsel in Oklahoma would like to be included in invitations for upcoming events and/or member activities, please contact John Eix at john.eix@crowedunlevy.com or 918-592-9803.
