Every accident presents different circumstances. Understanding what happened, who may be responsible, and how the accident has affected your life is an important part of pursuing a claim.
Common Questions
-
Your safety should always come first. Seek medical attention when necessary, report the accident to the appropriate authorities, and document the scene if it is safe to do so. Keeping records of medical treatment, expenses, and insurance communications can also be helpful when pursuing a claim.
-
You may still have options for recovering compensation. Depending on your insurance policy and the circumstances of the accident, uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage may apply. An attorney can help evaluate your available options.
-
Possibly. Oklahoma follows a modified comparative negligence system, meaning you may still recover damages if your share of fault does not exceed 50%. Any recovery may be reduced based on your percentage of responsibility.
-
Many Oklahoma personal injury lawsuits are subject to a two-year filing deadline, but exceptions and shorter deadlines may apply, particularly for claims involving government entities. It is important to have your circumstances reviewed promptly.
-
Before accepting a settlement, it may be beneficial to understand the full extent of your injuries, expenses, and potential future needs. An attorney can help you evaluate whether an offer adequately addresses your losses.
