ONEOK Inc.


Robert G “Hap” Fry, Jr. began his private law practice in 1969 with Joyce Caldwell as his legal secretary. In 1983,

Judy Willits joined his firm and, during her tenure, became the custody parale-gal, a move that prompted Caldwell to become the financial paralegal. In 1991, James R. Elder joined the firm and Fry & Elder was established in Tulsa. The attorneys bring more than 70 years of domestic trial experience to the prac-tice. Add their paralegals’ additional 50 years of experience, and Fry & Elder boasts more than 120 years of skill. The attorneys work as a team and know in advance how to prepare and present their clients’ best interests. The great-est legal arguments often occur within the confines of their offices.

ENSURING THE BEST INTERESTS OF CHILDREN ARE PARAMOUNTAlmost everyone has a story about a member of their family who has gone through the anguish and trauma of di-vorce. Members of the Tulsa County Bar Association, domestic judges and men-

tal health experts have collaborated to fine-tune various proposals to make the breaking up of a family less stressful, less costly, and certainly less damaging to children. Personal mobility has lead our firm to an increase in “relocation cases” which can impact the children by long distance visitation. In most cases, these requirements enable the parents to resolve their issues rather than the judge.

WE MEDIATE WHENEVER POSSIBLE, BUT WILL NOT HESITATE TO LITIGATE TO PROTECT RELATIONSHIPS WITH CHILDREN AND ASSETS.

WHEN REASON JUST WON’T WORKFry knows there are some unfortunate cases that must be tried simply because there is a parent who has a mental or emotional condition that is damaging to his or her children. When this is the

case, our experience has shown that only a judge’s verdict will bring resolu-tion. “When it becomes impossible to reason with the other side, my philoso-phy is simple, “ Fry says, “shoot all the bullets you have and then throw the empty gun at them.”

PROFESSIONAL AFFILIATIONSRobert Fry and James Elder have both served as past chairmen of the Tulsa County Bar Association’s Domestic Rela-tions Section. Fry, named a 2007 “Su-per Lawyer” in Oklahoma, is a fellow of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers and previously served as presi-dent of the organization’s Oklahoma chapter. He also frequently lectures on a variety of divorce and custody-related topics. Elder’s lectures focus on the asset protection issues prevalent in divorce litigation.
