OKLAHOMA CITY — ReMerge of Oklahoma County will hold a graduation ceremony at 10 a.m. Monday, March 25 at the Oklahoma History Center, 800 Nazih Zuhdi Drive, for the first participants who have graduated from ReMerge, a female diversion program designed to transform pregnant women and mothers facing incarceration into productive community citizens. ReMerge is a four-phase program, designed to be about a year long, created to hold participants accountable while providing the necessary services to support their recovery and promote responsible parenting. ReMerge is patterned on successful diversion programs across the United States and in Tulsa, where the best-known such effort is “Women in Recovery,” the focus of several reports from CapitolBeatOK in the past few years (http://www.capitolbeatok.com/reports/wir-s-story-is-evidence-that-justice-reinvestment-can-work).

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT

There are a few lawyers who can take a case with bad facts and bad law and make it into something special. When you’re looking for that type of lawyer, it can be especially hard to find. Do you evaluate based on educational background? Number of accolades? Do you trust a referral from a friend? One lawyer may have done a good job for your friend, but that is because their situation was much different and the lawyer you need has a different focus. Do you look for a lawyer who is board certified in a particular field? If you are looking for a trusted Waco Local Counsel it is important to see what the people in that locality think of the lawyer’s services. Understanding the nuances of particular judges and local customs is critical in getting heard. There are few ways that it could pay off poorly to find the right lawyer for your case. That’s why it’s a safe bet to find the best people for your job.
