Oklahoma City, OK personal injury attorneys Michael Burrage and Reggie Whitten discuss what makes their firm different and the level of service clients can expect. The firm distinguishes itself from many others due to its strong ties to Oklahoma. Both Mike Burge and the speaker are native Oklahomans from small towns, with neither of their parents having graduated from high school. This humble background instilled a sense of determination, both literally and figuratively. They firmly believe that if one cannot be the smartest lawyer in the room, they should strive to be the hardest working—a philosophy that has guided their careers.

When the speaker met Mike, they quickly became close friends, discovering that they shared many of the same values and approaches. Their primary responsibility is often to simplify complex topics for juries. For example, in cases involving medicine, they must explain medical concepts in a way that is easily understood by jurors—something that not all doctors or lawyers can do effectively. They excel at connecting with people at all levels, communicating with sincerity, honesty, and a strong work ethic. These same values are instilled in the younger lawyers they hire, all of whom have been carefully mentored and trained by Mike and the speaker.

Moreover, they understand that many clients seek their help after experiencing traumatic events, such as the loss of a loved one, the destruction of their home, or severe injuries. These clients need to be treated with care and respect. When clients reach out, the firm is committed to responding immediately, ensuring that all questions are answered promptly. This level of attention and responsiveness is seen as a vital part of what clients deserve, particularly after enduring such difficult circumstances.
