A personal injury claim is a legal case you bring when you’ve been hurt because of someone else’s negligence. It allows you to seek compensation for things like medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. This can include situations like a car wreck, slip and fall, or similar accidents.
A personal injury claim typically starts with seeking medical treatment and filing a claim with party who is at fault insurance, but you need to hire an attorney quickly to start reviewing your situation. Your attorney will investigate the accident, gather evidence, and deal with the insurance company on your behalf. Once you’ve finished treatment, a demand is made for compensation. Most cases settle through negotiation, but if a fair agreement isn’t reached, a lawsuit may be filed.
Most personal injury claims are resolved within 6 months to 2 years, depending on the complexity of the case.
Most personal injury cases are resolved through settlement without ever going to trial. Only a small percentage—typically 3–5%—actually go to trial. Approximately 60% can be resolved without filing a lawsuit, but even if a lawsuit is filed approximately 90% of those will eventually be resolved without trial.
The value of a personal injury claim depends on the specific facts of your case. Compensation is typically based on factors like the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and the impact the injury has on your daily life. More serious injuries generally result in higher compensation, while less severe cases may result in lower amounts.
In Oklahoma, deadlines can vary depending on the type of injury you sustained. Missing a deadline could seriously impact or even prevent your ability to recover compensation. If you think you may have a personal injury claim, contact our office today for a free consultation.
Personal injury claims are usually paid by the at-fault party’s insurance company. You can also pursue your own underinsured or uninsured motorist (UM) insurance if the responsible party doesn’t have enough coverage to fully compensate you.
In Oklahoma, most personal injury claims do not have a cap, with a few exceptions. Governmental entities may have a tort claim limit. These entities require a notice of the claim to be done within 1 year and may have a cap on certain type of damages. You must be very careful when these types of entities are at fault. Contact us immediately for any questions!
You can typically recover damages such as medical expenses, lost wages, future treatment costs, and pain and suffering. In some cases, additional damages may be available depending on the circumstances of your case.
We work on a contingency fee basis—you don’t pay anything unless we win your case. Our fee is a percentage of the amount recovered, so there are no upfront costs—no risk to you to get started.
A personal injury claim itself won’t affect your marriage or relationship, but the impact of the injury can. Physical pain, emotional stress, financial pressure, and shifts in daily responsibilities can all create tension between partners. In some cases, a spouse may also have a related claim for “loss of consortium,” which addresses the impact on companionship or support. Overall, open communication and support are key, and a successful claim can help ease financial strain during recovery.
