Our Story: Linking Stillwater’s Legal Ecosystem
Since 2004, The Local Telephone Legal Directory, Inc. has been the legal lifeline for north-central Oklahoma, linking residents, businesses, and attorneys throughout the Stillwater area and beyond. Based at 118 North Oak Street in Ponca City, we started with one core goal-providing access, accuracy, and support for local legal information for members of our community. Over the years, we’ve evolved alongside the region to become a leading online resource for law firms, lawyers, and other legal service providers-making it easier than ever to connect individuals and businesses with the right legal help right here at home.
Company History: Rooted in Local Community
Local Telephone Legal Directory, Inc. (“LTLD”) was founded in 2004 by a team of local business and legal professionals who noticed the need for a comprehensive, locally-based legal directory in Stillwater, Oklahoma. Leveraging the expertise and publishing heritage of the Dancey-Meador Publishing Company (our founders Dean Meador and Tim Dancey), we set out to create not just a listing of legal professionals, but a service that more closely intertwined the legal community with those it serves. From our initial print directory days to our current state as a fully digital legal directory, we have emphasized accuracy, community service, and innovation. Our directory became the premiere resource for those looking for reliable legal help in Stillwater at the time, and our operating philosophies are why our customers know they can trust us and our products as useful and informative.
Our Mission: Fostering Access and Engagement
“At The Local Telephone Legal Directory, Inc., our purpose is very simple: we aim to equip every person, family, and business in Stillwater, Oklahoma and nearby regions with the information and contacts they need to make smart legal choices. We believe that access to the right legal information should be simple, transparent, and designed specifically for the local community. Not only does our service connect consumers with attorneys or law firms, we also educate consumers about their legal rights and provide news and engagement opportunities on issues that walk the line between legal and everyday life. Through our online directory, legal news, event listing services, and educational guide services, we help people understand and access the law.”
