The Rudnicki Firm Celebrates June Wins!

This summer’s heat doesn’t stop the Rudnicki Firm from steamrolling in with the wins. This month, The Rudnicki Firm’s “Brief This!” Lip-sync group, brought down the house and took home the prize for best Lip Sync performance during the Oklahoma Bar Foundation’s Rock the Foundation – Lip Sync Fundraiser! The event was hosted by the Oklahoma Bar Foundation for its Access for Justice Program, a program that helps individuals obtain pro bono and low-cost legal help when they otherwise couldn’t afford it.

“We were all excited to participate in this event because it was supporting a great cause. We had a great time preparing for the event and participating with our peers,” said Jennifer Warren, attorney at the Rudnicki Firm.

The event raised $26,094 for its first fundraiser debut and even though “Brief This!” experienced some technical difficulty in their final part of the performance, the ever-adaptable women of The Rudnicki Firm finished a cappella, further representing how Access to Justice will not let lower income or other disadvantages get in the way of providing legal services to all, no matter their situation.

Next up, The Rudnicki Firm's own Kristin Meloni was awarded the Oklahoma County Bar Associations Outstanding Young Lawyers Division Director Award at the 2019 OCBA Annual Awards Luncheon this month! Kristin has been a member of the Oklahoma County Bar Association YLD since 2016.

“I am so honored to have been selected for this prestigious award! I look forward to my continued involvement with the OCBA YLD,” said Kristin Meloni.
