Personal Injury Risks in Oklahoma City
Oklahoma City blends rich cultural heritage with the buzz of a growing metropolis. The unexpected can happen if you navigate the Bricktown Canal or head out on I-44. Intersections like NW Expressway & May Avenue and high-traffic zones like I-240 and I-35 are known for frequent accidents. Construction zones and oilfield equipment also pose unique risks in and around the city.

Frequently Asked Questions
You probably have questions, especially if this is your first time dealing with a personal injury. Below are some answers to the most common questions people ask our personal injury attorneys in Oklahoma City.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Oklahoma?
In Oklahoma, the statute of limitations for most personal injury cases is two years from the date of the injury. Missing that deadline could prevent you from recovering compensation, so speaking with a lawyer as soon as possible is essential.
What should I do immediately after an accident in Oklahoma City?
Start by getting medical attention – even if you do not think you are seriously hurt. Then, if possible, document the scene with photos and gather contact information from any witnesses. Avoid discussing fault with others at the scene, and do not give a recorded statement to an insurance company before consulting a lawyer.
Can I still recover damages if I was partially at fault?
Yes. Oklahoma follows a modified comparative negligence rule. You can still recover compensation if you are less than 51 percent at fault. However, your total recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault.
What types of compensation can I recover in a personal injury case?
Depending on the circumstances, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, medical bills, lost wages, future care costs, property damage, pain and suffering, and emotional distress. In rare cases, punitive damages may also apply.
Hiring an attorney is integral to handle the complexities of filing a personal injury lawsuit and to ensure you seek appropriate compensation for medical expenses, lost income, and emotional distress.
How do personal injury lawyers get paid?
Most personal injury attorneys in Oklahoma, including our team, work on a contingency fee basis. That means we do not get paid unless you win your case. If there is no recovery, there is no legal fee.
Do I have to go to court to win my case?
Not always. Many personal injury cases get settled through negotiations before ever going to court. But if the insurance company won’t play fair, we’re ready to take your case to trial and fight for what you’re owed.
Is there a difference between personal injury and workers’ compensation claims?
Yes. Personal injury claims are based on negligence, while workers’ comp is a no-fault system specifically for on-the-job injuries. If you were hurt at work in Oklahoma City, you may have a separate claim depending on who was responsible.
Do you still have questions? Our law firm just a phone call away and happy to discuss your situation.
