Counties
The firm regularly appears in district courts in Pittsburg, Sequoyah, McIntosh, Latimer, Bryan, Atoka, Haskell, Pushmataha, and Muskogee Counties. Pittsburg County, where McAlester is the county seat, is the firm’s home court.
Tribal courts
Eastern Oklahoma sits largely within the reservation boundaries of several tribal nations, and after McGirt v. Oklahoma the question of which court has jurisdiction over a matter is often the first issue in a case. Wesley J. Cherry is admitted in the district courts of the Chickasaw Nation, the Cherokee Nation, the Choctaw Nation, and the Muscogee (Creek) Nation, so a case that turns out to belong in tribal court does not have to be referred elsewhere.
Federal courts
Foundation Law is admitted in the United States District Courts for the Eastern, Northern, and Western Districts of Oklahoma, the Western District of Texas, and the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit.
