75954444 CWlogo Legal Newswire

Conner & Winters is proud to announce that R. Kevin Redwine has been elected as the firm’s first-ever managing partner, along with a new board of directors.

Kevin Redwine brings significant financial acumen and business experience to the managing partner role at Conner & Winters, a premier business and litigation law firm based in Tulsa with 90+ attorneys across 6 offices.

The following partners were elected to join Redwine on the newly-formed Board of Directors:

  • Dillon Curran (OKC)
  • Scott Hathaway (Tulsa)
  • Kerri Kobbeman (Arkansas)
  • Robert Melgaard (Tulsa)
  • Hayley Stephens (Tulsa)
  • Christopher Wilson (Tulsa)

“Our firm has a brilliant group of lawyers and an outstanding base of clients, with a great history of representing businesses in this region and nationwide,” said Redwine. “I’m very proud to take on this role and continue that tradition, but I’m very excited for our future.”

The election of a managing partner and new board of directors marks an evolution of the management structure at Conner & Winters. The firm was previously managed by an executive committee that included a president, chairman, COO, CFO, and four at-large members.

Mr. Redwine assumes his new post having previously served on the firm’s executive committee as Chief Financial Officer from 2014 – 2017, among several other leadership roles.

Board members Kerri Kobbeman, Robert Melgaard, and Scott Hathaway have also served on prior executive committees.
