Our Rich History
In the early
days of Rosenstein, Fist & Ringold – soon after Oklahoma’s
statehood was declared – a trip to the courthouse in Oklahoma City was a multi-day endeavor that
started with a train ride.
If attorneys didn’t take the Frisco to Oklahoma City
– or to Muskogee, Pawnee, Sapulpa
or Okmulgee
– they took a horse and buggy, or rode in a car at a time when the
sophistication of automobiles far exceeded that of the muddy roads.
The firm’s founder, Claude H. Rosenstein, recalled in
his 1985 biography, that once an opposing attorney agreed to share a
Pullman car on a trip to
Oklahoma City.
They planned to leave early, sleep on the way and arrive
refreshed the next morning to argue the case against each other.
They didn’t make it to Oklahoma City
– the Frisco Railroad neglected to pick up the Pullman car and
Rosenstein and his worthy opponent were left on the side track in Tulsa.
Mr. Rosenstein had distinguished law partners over
the years, but his association with Henry Fist, David Fist and Tony Ringold led to the establishment
of Rosenstein, Fist & Ringold.
The firm’s attorneys are proud to be part of
Oklahoma’s rich history – and
Oklahoma’s future.
The firm believes its commitment to exceptional
personal service is one of the reasons Tulsa Public Schools has been its client since
1932 – a relationship spanning three generations of RF&R shareholders.
The firm’s reputation has attracted more than 350 other
Oklahoma
school districts, including many of the state’s career and technology
education centers.
Although the community often focuses on the RF&R’s
connection to education, the firm’s work is not limited to public
schools. The firm provides
counsel for a variety of state agencies and non-profit organizations, as
well as representing many businesses and individuals.
What hasn’t been derailed since the days of Claude Rosenstein’s Pullman
car ride, however, is Rosenstein, Fist & Ringold’s commitment to
timeless values emphasizing loyalty, dedication, and personal service.
