I believe every research summary should lead back to the underlying opinion.
ABOUT THE CREATOR
I built Liberty Precedent for Oklahoma.
Working inside an Oklahoma law firm showed me how much time, context, and confidence legal research can demand. I created Liberty Precedent to make Oklahoma case law easier to find, understand, verify, and connect.
Why I created Liberty Precedent
I am Liberty Dolberry, a University of Oklahoma Political Science graduate, an Oklahoma law firm intern, a future law school applicant, and an aspiring attorney.
Working at a law firm in Oklahoma pushed me to create this project. I saw how deeply legal decisions affect real people, businesses, property, employment, and disputes across our state. I wanted to build a public research starting point that does more than list cases. Liberty Precedent helps people see where a case came from, understand the issue, confirm the citation, and reach the actual opinion.
Working inside an Oklahoma law office taught me that finding a case is only the first step. Researchers also need to know where it came from, what the court actually decided, and how to get back to the opinion. Every case collected here reflects the standard I want to bring to the legal profession: careful research, clear reasoning, and respect for the source.
What I believe
I believe authority, geography, posture, and verification status should be visible.
I believe useful legal information should be open to anyone beginning Oklahoma research.
