Oklahoma Criminal Defense Lawyers

The goal of The Atkins & Markoff Criminal Law Center is to provide unsurpassed quality in communication, litigation, and results. Every lawyer that works in our Criminal Division shares this view of our purpose and together we aspire to fulfill our idealistic expectations of what a criminal defense lawyer should be.

Our criminal defense lawyers strive to be the champion for their client's cause in every single case, no matter the size. Our ONLY obligation throughout the process is to serve, protect, and vigorously defend our client from the State and it's allegations and we do this in courtrooms across this State every day with great pride. We understand how difficult a legal battle can be mentally, physically, and financially and we are dedicated to making this process as understandable and tolerable as we can by providing our client with both the best personal service in the legal community and the most zealous legal defense the law allows.

We know how important it is to know that someone is in your corner when it feels like everybody is against you. We take the time to understand what your expectations and goals are within your case and we vow to serve those interests to the fullest. We are honored to have an opportunity to work in a field where we have a chance to offer help and serve those who need us most and to be there for them at a time when many of them feel alone and uncared for. We cherish the chance to protect our clients and to show the State that our clients are more than just another court case, and that we will defend them to the fullest against any and all accusations against them.

We take your case personally because you are our client and you are trusting us with your case, your name, and your freedom. Every case is our opportunity to show that we deserve your trust and to do our part to make sure that JUSTICE is done in a system where it is sadly ignored too often. It is these values and our dedication to our clients that separate us from the competition and we would love the chance to show you our example of what every attorney-client relationship should be.

Daniel P. Markoff founded the law firm in 1997 and Jeffrey R. Atkins joined the firm in 1999. Together we have more than twenty years of combined experience representing thousands of injured Oklahomans. We also have an excellent staff of experienced legal assistants. While our main office is located in downtown Oklahoma City, we have offices throughout Oklahoma in Altus, Bartlesville, Lawton and Stillwater. We are licensed to practice before all state and federal courts in Oklahoma.

The firm has represented thousands of clients throughout the United States in a variety of matters, but primarily in general personal injury, Silicone Breast Implant and Fen Phen Diet Drug litigation. We have been at the forefront of the pharmaceutical litigation in the United States, representing over 700 clients injured by silicone breast implants and the Fen Phen diet drug combination.

We have always been actively involved in publicizing potentially dangerous products. The partners and our clients have been interviewed on CNN, The CBS Evening News, Cosmopolitan Magazine, The Daily Oklahoman and local television stations throughout Oklahoma.

Our Mission

Our firm takes a unique approach in the representation of our clients. The majority of people we represent have never hired an attorney before and are unfamiliar with the legal process. Communication is critical, and an extensive amount of time is spent with our clients to insure that they understand the unique aspects of litigation. We explain each stage of the complicated legal process to our clients to prevent surprises and insure a successful result.

Our firm has successfully recovered tens of millions of dollars in settlements and verdicts for our clients.

The lawyer you choose to represent you can make a difference in the outcome of your case. Choosing us can help make a difference for you and for others.
