President Nominee

Ann Pollard

DEAR ASSOCIATION MEMBERS: 

I AM RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT OF THE ASSOCIATION. I AM THE FOUNDER AND CURRENT  PRESIDENT OF THE ASSOCIATION.  

MY GRANDPARENTS CAME TO OKLAHOMA WHEN IT WAS STILL INDIAN TERRITORY AND I  AM A NATIVE OKLAHOMAN. I AM A GRADUATE OF COLLEGE HIGH SCHOOL, BARTLESVILLE,  OK. GO WILDCATS!! I HAVE AN ASSOCIATE DEGREE IN CRIMINAL LAW/ JUSTICE AND SOCIOLOGY. I, ALSO. HAVE A BACHELOR DEGREE IN SOCIOLOGY. I HAD A MUSIC SCHOLARSHIP IN COLLEGE. I HAVE WORKED FOR FOR-PROFIT AND NON-PROFIT  ORGANIZATIONS, RETAIL BUSINESS, AND OIL AND GAS OFFICES. I WAS A BAIL AGENT FOR  (10) YEARS. MY FAMILY WAS IN THE RETAIL BUSINESS FOR OVER 65 YEARS. 

A BIG PART OF MY WORK HAS BEEN TO COMMUNICATE WITH JUDGES, AND BUSINESSES  CONCERNING THE LAW WHEN IT COMES TO PROCESS SERVERS AND HOW THEIR BEHAVIOR  GOES AGAINST STATE OR FEDERAL LAW. THIS COMMUNICATION HAS OPENED A MYRIAD  OF DOORS FOR OUR MEMBERS TO SERVE DOCUMENTS. I, ALSO, COMMUNICATE WITH  COURT CLERKS OR THEIR EMPLOYEES WHEN THEY ARE NOT TREATING PROCESS SERVERS  ACCORDING TO THE LAW OR HAVE BEEN OUTRIGHT DISCRIMINATORY IN THEIR PRACTICES  INVOLVING PROCESS SERVERS. OUR LETTER-WRITING PROGRAM TO BUSINESSES WHO  HAVE NOT ADHERED TO OKLAHOMA LAW CONCERNING PROCESS SERVICE AND PROCESS  SERVERS HAS BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL. I HAVE, ALSO, BEEN ACTIVE IN HELPING OUR NEW  MEMBERS AND THOSE NEW TO THE BUSINESS WITH THEIR QUESTIONS AND PROCEDURES  RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS AND ASSOCIATION. 

WE HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL IN KEEPING LEGISLATION OUT OF THE HANDS OF  LEGISLATORS THAT WOULD HARM PROCESS SERVERS AND OUR MEMBERS. WE HAVE BEEN  VERY SUCCESSFUL FOR THE PAST (7) YEARS IN PASSING LEGISLATION THAT HELPS  PROCESS SERVERS AND THEIR BUSINESSES. WE HAVE HAD A GREAT DEAL OF SUCCESS IN  HELPING OUR MEMBERS BE MORE SUCCESSFUL AS PROCESS SERVERS. WE HAVE  INTRODUCED OUR REFERRAL PROGRAM CONCERNING OUR WEBSITE. WE GET MORE AND  MORE CALLS FROM ALL OVER THE COUNTRY FROM PEOPLE SEARCHING FOR PROCESS SERVERS AND OUR MEMBERS ARE GETTING BUSINESS BY HELPING THESE CLIENTS. OUR MEMBERS ALSO, RECEIVE (2) FREE LISTINGS ON THE INTERNET AND CAN USE THE  INVESTIGATIVE PROGRAM WE HAVE THAT CAN HELP THEM FIND RUNNERS OR GIVE THEM  NEEDED INFORMATION ABOUT THEM.
