About Ben F Meek
Ben F Meek III trained first as a student of English, then turned to the law. He earned a Bachelor of Arts in English from Baylor University in 1981 and later attended Oklahoma City University School of Law, completing his J.D. in 1985. The record also notes a Master of Arts in English from Pittsburg State University. That blend of language training and legal education has shaped how he writes and how he argues.
Meek began his legal career after law school and has practiced for several decades. For a period in the late 1990s he belonged to the William J. Holloway American Inn of Court, serving as a barrister from 1996 to 1998. More recently he joined the Estate Planning, Probate, Trusts Section of the Oklahoma Bar Association and has remained active there since 2017. The memberships suggest steady engagement with colleagues and continuing legal education across multiple practice areas.
His admissions to federal courts cover several Oklahoma districts and the regional appellate court. He is admitted to practice in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma, the Eastern District of Oklahoma and the Western District of Oklahoma, and he is also admitted to the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Those credentials allow him to handle matters that arise in federal forums as well as cases that may proceed on appeal within the 10th Circuit.
For many years Meek has operated as a sole practitioner under the name Ben F Meek, III, Lawyer at Law. He maintains an office in Landmark Towers West. As a solo lawyer he manages client intake, case strategy and courtroom work himself rather than as part of a firm team. That model can produce continuity for clients who prefer a single attorney to manage their matters from start to finish.
Throughout his career Meek has handled matters tied to estate planning and probate work, reflecting his long-standing participation in the Oklahoma Bar Association section dedicated to those areas. His legal background in writing and analysis aligns with tasks such as drafting wills, trusts and fiduciary documents and preparing filings for probate proceedings.
Colleagues describe him as thorough in document preparation and deliberate in court. He balances courtroom experience and transactional work. He currently focuses his practice on estate planning, probate and trust matters in state and federal courts.
