About Max
Max Deane studied law at the University of Tulsa College of Law, where he prepared for a career in Oklahoma’s legal system. He took the classroom work and clinic experience seriously, shaping an approach to practice that emphasizes clear reasoning and attention to procedure.
After his time in law school, Deane established his professional footing in Oklahoma. He is admitted to practice in the state and has worked in both litigation and counseling roles. Early casework tested his courtroom skills and taught him the pacing of state practice — deadlines, discovery, hearings and settlement negotiations.
Over the years Deane built a general practice grounded in client service and courtroom work. He handles matters for individuals and businesses, advising on legal strategy and representing clients in state proceedings. His work involves drafting pleadings, preparing motions, negotiating outcomes and appearing in local courts. Colleagues describe him as practical and methodical in approaching legal problems.
Deane’s role at Deane & Panagopoulos Law, PLLC places him alongside other attorneys in a small firm environment. That setting allows him to work closely with clients and manage cases from intake through resolution. The firm handles a range of legal needs in Oklahoma, and Deane contributes by managing litigation tasks and client communications. He favors clear explanations for clients and steady management of case timelines.
Outside the courtroom, Deane keeps up with developments in state law and maintains professional contacts across the local bar. He balances court appearances with office work, remaining involved in the details that move a case forward. As of 2026 he practices in Oklahoma at Deane & Panagopoulos Law, PLLC, handling legal matters for both individual and business clients in state courts and administrative settings.
