FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Nicholas D. Rouse, Managing Shareholder 405-607-8600 nrouse@dunlapcodding.com

Dunlap Codding is pleased to be ranked among the state’s top firms for intellectual property by Chambers USA:  America’s Leading Lawyers for Business.  The publication is widely regarded as the most reliable and intensively researched of all lawyer rating directories.  Chambers USA began ranking Oklahoma Intellectual Property firms in 2010, and Dunlap Codding is a top-ranked firm in the inaugural coverage of the state’s intellectual property practitioners.  Additionally, each of the firm’s shareholders is listed among the selected top intellectual property lawyers in the state.  Sources quoted in the publication said about the firm, “I’m confident they could handle anything, regardless of the subject matter.”  Chambers describes the firm as “well respected in the field due to its attorneys’ broad range of technical expertise. The group undertakes both transactional and contentious IP work and its client base includes major biomedical,pharmaceutical and technology companies.” 

Dunlap Codding P.C. is an Oklahoma City-based law firm serving regional, national and international clients.  Established in 1957 as Oklahoma’s original intellectual property firm, Dunlap Codding remains the state’s largest and most versatile IP boutique.  Dunlap Codding represents a substantial number of sophisticated client companies, and for the past 50 years has obtained more patents, trademarks and copyrights than any other firm in the region.

DC On Film Row

About DC on Film Row

DC on Film Row is a free event space open to everyone in our community.

We like to say that the space is a “home for creatives and innovators, home builders and the homeless, celebrators and the celebrated” so people understand that we are inclusive and want everyone from throughout our community using our space.

Our goal is to celebrate the incredible diversity of creativity, innovation, and passion within Oklahoma City and to provide a venue—free of charge—to those groups and individuals working to bind us all together and make our home a cooler and better place. No strings attached—no extensive rules to follow. We simply ask that all of our neighbors be honored and that all viewpoints be respected. Our criteria for use is simple: If the event, group, or meeting is something which strengthens our community and brings us all together, the space is available for use.

The space has hosted everything from charitable fundraisers to an underground nightclub party to celebrate Canterbury Choral Society’s 45th anniversary season. We host dinners for the OKC homeless population most Monday evenings where upwards of 250 people are served—we provide the space and soft drinks and a local church provides the food. We’ve hosted university planning retreats and monthly local rock concerts.

Every Wednesday, we open up the courtyard for lunch, invite a local food truck to set up outside our gates, and welcome our downtown neighbors into the space for a bit of socialization.

Our never-ending soda fountain seems to be the biggest hit with some of our neighbors while others spend time playing pool or simply chatting about what is happening on the weekend.

For October we turn the space into a haunted house and invite the neighborhood children to come out and trick-or-treat.

Got an idea for how to use the space? Just ask us – we’re almost certain to say yes!
