Does the compliance landscape for your Oklahoma RIA feel overwhelming?
As a federally registered investment advisor in Oklahoma, you’re tasked with managing extensive regulatory oversight and fiduciary responsibilities.
Protecting your Oklahoma clients’ interests, upholding market integrity, and staying ahead of the ever-shifting flow of compliance updates — it can feel like trying to navigate a landscape where the weather changes at a moment’s notice.
But it doesn’t have to be so unpredictable.
As your Oklahoma RIA compliance partner, we know that compliance is about more than just ticking boxes. It’s about protecting the reputation of your firm, ensuring your clients’ investments are secure, and running your business with integrity in an ever-evolving environment.
That’s where we come in. Our outsourced compliance services provide SEC-registered investment advisors like you in Oklahoma with the guidance, tools, and expertise to navigate the complex regulatory landscape worry-free.

As an RIA, you’re no stranger to the constant compliance challenges that come with the territory. From the never-ending deluge of rules and regulations to the looming threat of audits and penalties, it can feel like compliance is a full-time job in itself. We get it. The stress and uncertainty of RIA compliance in Oklahoma can be a huge distraction from running your business.
Sound familiar? If so, know that you’re not alone. Many RIAs in Oklahoma find themselves in the same compliance chaos. Here’s the good news! My RIA Lawyer has the outsourced compliance solution that your firm needs.
The SEC has made it abundantly clear – a knowledgeable and proactive Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) is essential for any registered investment adviser.
They expect nothing less than excellence when it comes to your compliance program.
But let’s be honest, compliance is probably not your favorite part of the job.
By outsourcing your CCO function, you can offload those compliance worries and focus on your business.
An outsourced CCO brings the expertise, resources, and dedication to compliance that many RIA owners simply don’t have the time or inclination to develop in-house.
If you’re ready to outsource your compliance worries and focus on growing your firm, contact the team at My RIA Lawyer today. We’re here to be your trusted guide through the ever-evolving world of RIA compliance.
When it comes to running a compliant and legally sound RIA in Oklahoma, you need a comprehensive solution that goes beyond just compliance. Traditional compliance consultants will fall short, leaving you to figure out the legal matters on your own or hire someone else to get involved.

as a lawyer, I can give you the insights...
We are the answer to All Your Questions.
“It’s important that you look at your legal provider and who it is you have invested in to protect your business, so there are a few things you should be asking your lawyer. First, do they know what the heck you’re doing? Do they know the services you provide? The fees you’re charging? Do they understand securities? One of the problems I see when there is a legal action or when there’s an enforcement action, is that so many of you are going to attorneys that have ZERO securities experience! You’re going to, God forbid, a general practitioner!! That’s not the kind of lawyer you want, you want a securities attorney! You want them to understand your business.“
