About
Hartwell Law, the Oklahoma City practice of attorney David P. Hartwell, has spent more than three decades helping families plan ahead and move through the sensitive work of estate planning, wills and trusts, guardianship, and probate. Born and raised in Oklahoma City, Hartwell earned his accounting degree and law degree from Oklahoma City University and has been admitted to practice in Oklahoma state courts, the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma, and the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals since 1990. The firm is known for personal, appointment-based counsel that turns a client’s wishes, family circumstances, and assets into tailored legal documents rather than generic forms. Whether someone is creating an estate plan, updating a trust, or guiding a loved one’s affairs through guardianship or probate, the office emphasizes clarity, compassion, and practical next steps. From its Sovereign Row office, Hartwell Law presents itself as a local guide for life’s important decisions—protecting what matters most and helping families enter their next chapter with confidence.
