Experienced Legal Support for Entrepreneurs, Startups & Small Business Owners

Owning a small business can be one of the most rewarding career paths—but it also comes with serious legal responsibilities. From initial business formation to contract disputes, employment issues, and long-term operational planning, each stage of growth brings unique challenges. At Knight, Stockton & Cunningham (KSC Law), we provide entrepreneurs and business owners in Oklahoma and Arkansas with the experienced, practical legal counsel they need to protect their companies and ensure long-term success.
