Royal Oakes a ‘Super Lawyer’

La Cañada Flintridge resident Royal Oakes has again been named a Super Lawyer by the publisher of Law & Politics.

This selection process identifies qualified candidates by means of a multi-step evaluation process that encorporates peer recognition and professional achievement: 60,000 ballots are mailed to attorneys in the state and their responses are ranked using a 12-level process. Candidates are further reviewed by a panel of peers in their primary area of practice.

Oakes is a partner at the downtown law firm of Barger & Wolen and was selected for his expertise in the area of business litigation. His practice also encompasses wrongful termination defense, and media law, where he has been instrumental in getting, and keeping, camers in courtrooms, in order that what transpires inside the justice system, is visible to citizens.

Additionally, Oakes represents several television, radio and on-line new services as their expert in legal matters both on- and off-screen.
