Misty A. Oaks
Attorney Misty A. Oaks, Founding Partner and Principal Member of The Oaks Firm, stepped out on faith when she started her own legal practice in 2009. What started as just a dull roar turned into roaring thunder, when considering the number of satisfied clients and the rapid growth of The Firm. She oversees every aspect of The Firm’s operations, while her main areas of practice are: Home & Auto Loan Modifications, Chapter 7 & 13 Bankruptcy, Foreclosure Defense, and Civil Litigation.
Attorney Oaks graduated magna cum laude from North Carolina Central University School of Law in Durham, North Carolina in 2008. During her tenure in law school she served as President of the Trial Advocacy Board and Senior Editor on the Law Journal. A native of Rocky Hill, Connecticut, she has worked for one of the largest law firms in Connecticut, Carter Mario Injury Lawyers, and one of the largest law firms in the world, Jones Day.
Attorney Oaks is a member of countless legal, writing, and speaking organizations such as, Phi Delta Phi International Legal Fraternity, The Writers Guild of America, and Toastmasters International. She is also an avid writer as she is currently writing her first book slated to be published next year. In her free time, she loves to read, spend time with friends and family, enjoying life in a variety of ways, and of course shop.
