Frequently Asked Questions

How Much Does it Cost to Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?

Most lawyers take cases on a contingency fee basis. You can receive legal representation without paying out-of-pocket costs, and you don’t owe attorney’s fees unless your claim is successful.

The fees are deducted from the settlement or award recovered in your case. The fee – typically between 33–40% – is agreed upon when you sign the retainer agreement.

It can vary based on the complexity of your case and whether it reaches the litigation phase.

This arrangement allows you to obtain quality legal services and you don’t have to worry about upfront expenses. It also gives your attorney an incentive to recover the maximum amount of compensation available in your case.

What Damages Are Available To Accident Victims?

Victims can pursue compensation for their economic and non-economic damages.

Economic damages – or the financial costs you incur due to your accident and injuries – might include:

  • Your medical bills, such as the cost of treatment, surgery, and follow-ups
  • Future medical expenses if you require ongoing care or physical therapy
  • Lost income and benefits after missing time from work
  • Reduced earning potential
  • Property damage to vehicles, personal belongings, etc.

Non-economic damages – intangible consequences you suffer – could include:

  • Pain and suffering
  • PTSD
  • Loss of companionship and assistance
  • Disfigurement or scarring
  • Mental anguish
  • Permanent disability
  • Reduced quality of life

In some cases, the court may award the plaintiff punitive damages for the sake of punishing the defendant. The plaintiff must demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that the defendant’s conduct was intentional or represented a reckless disregard for others’ safety.

How Much Is My Personal Injury Case Worth?

The value of your claim will depend on many things. Each case is different, and every victim has a unique story.

When we are evaluating your case and calculating your economic and non-economic damages, we’ll need to know:

  • The severity of your injuries and how they affect your life and enjoyment
  • Whether you share any blame for the accident or injury
  • The value of your lost earnings, medical costs, and other costs
  • Whether your injuries impact your ability to earn a living
  • Whether you’re expected to make a recovery or suffer a permanent impairment
  • The level of pain, suffering, and emotional trauma you’ve endured
  • The strength of your case and the parties involved

People who sustain catastrophic injuries – such as amputations, traumatic brain injuries, or spinal cord damage – typically have higher case values. However, various factors must be assessed. Let us determine what your case’s value is and help you recover every penny.

How Long Do I Have To File a Lawsuit After an Accident in Oklahoma?

State law provides a time limit – known as the statute of limitations – to file a lawsuit. You generally have to bring your case within two years of the accident date.

Note that there may be exceptions to this two-year deadline. Even if you have a strong case, a judge will dismiss it if you don’t initiate it in time. To prevent that from happening, it’s best to consult an Oklahoma personal injury lawyer as soon as possible.
