Do You Have a Case?

Our attorneys will be happy to discuss the details of your accident with you during a free consultation and help determine whether you have a case worth pursuing. However, in general, the following questions are worth asking: 

Was Someone Else at Fault?

When someone gets behind the wheel of a car, they have a duty of care to others on the road. If that person fails to exercise reasonable caution and care, and you get hurt, you’re entitled to seek compensation from them.  

Common examples of negligence in a car accident include:  

  • Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol  
  • Speeding  
  • Ignoring posted traffic signs  
  • Reckless driving  
  • Distracted driving  

Often, the root causes of car crashes can be hard to prove, especially if there were few witnesses or one driver is lying about what happened. An experienced attorney will use sophisticated tactics to piece together what really happened and prove it. Examples include working with an accident reconstructionist or identifying (and protecting) car event data recorders, dash cam footage, and other sources of key evidence. 

Did I Suffer Damages?

To have a legitimate claim against an at-fault driver (or any other responsible party, such as a faulty equipment manufacturer), you need to have suffered damages.  

Damages include direct financial costs that were caused by the crash, such as hospital bills, medications, and lost wages. Your damages can also include non-economic pain and suffering that directly or indirectly result from your physical injuries. Examples include physical pain, emotional trauma, or loss of quality of life from not being able to spend time with your loved ones or engage in your favorite hobbies. 

Am I Within the Statute of Limitations?

The statute of limitations is the time limit to file a lawsuit for your car accident injury. In Oklahoma, you have two years from the time of the accident and injury to file a lawsuit for the compensation you deserve. 

There can be exceptions to the statute of limitations, so it’s important to discuss your circumstances with an experienced car accident attorney to ensure you don’t miss any important deadlines. 

How Much Insurance Coverage is Available?

In most car accident cases, the compensation that injury victims actually collect comes from insurance companies and policies that apply to the situation. This frequently includes the liability insurance coverage purchased by the at-fault driver, as well as any uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage (UM/UIM) purchased by the not-at-fault car accident victim.   

Sadly, in some cases there is very little applicable insurance coverage. If the at-fault driver is uninsured and has few personal assets, and the injury victim has little or no UM/UIM coverage, it may be extremely difficult to recover compensation regardless of how severe your injuries are.  

Our legal team makes every effort to uncover every possible source of insurance coverage available in order to get our clients the best possible result. 

Don’t worry if you have questions or uncertainties about any of the factors above. Our experienced Oklahoma City car accident lawyers are here to review your case at no charge to you and guide you through the process of seeking the compensation you deserve for your losses.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Should I Do After an Accident?

If you’ve been in an auto accident, you should take the following steps: 

  • Call first responders and seek medical treatment, even if you don’t feel hurt. It’s not always obvious right away that you may have suffered a serious (and expensive) injury, and you’ll want to get checked out as soon as possible. 
  • Call the police and get a police report. 
  • If you can, take photos of the crash scene, vehicle damage, and your injuries from as many angles as possible. 
  • Keep records of everything related to your accident, including your medical records, receipts, and lost wages. 
  • Contact our Oklahoma City car accident lawyers at Colbert Cooper Hill Attorneys so we can start building a case on your behalf! 

How Long Do I Have to File a Lawsuit?

Every state has a statute of limitations for filing car accident lawsuits. This means you have a specific window of time in which you need to file to be eligible to get compensation. 

In the State of Oklahoma, the statute of limitations is two years from the date of the accident. However, it’s important to contact an attorney as soon as possible so you don’t miss your chance of getting the compensation you deserve! The longer you wait, the harder it becomes to gather the evidence needed to support your insurance claim. 

Why Do I Need an Attorney?

You can be sure that the other party’s insurance company will try to escape liability or push you to accept a lowball offer. Their job is to pay you as little as possible for your personal injury claim. 

Having an experienced attorney on your side can prevent an insurance adjuster from taking advantage of you. They’ll know what to say and what not to say during negotiations. They also know how to calculate fair compensation, what evidence to gather, and what experts to get involved to give you the best chance at a successful recovery. Our fierce negotiators have your best interests in mind and will stop at nothing to protect your rights. 

Should I Talk to the Insurance Adjuster?

Usually within a few days of your accident, you’ll be contacted by an insurance adjuster representing the other side. Remember that you aren’t obligated to speak with them and it’s in your best interest to not sign anything they give you! No matter how nice they may seem at first, they’re not your friend. Don’t answer any questions, and always direct them to your Oklahoma City car accident lawyers. 

Will I Have to Go to Court?

Most car crash cases do not require injury victims to go to court. Usually, the process involves back-and-forth negotiations with the insurance company where both parties eventually agree upon a settlement amount. 

However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached without getting the court involved, filing a personal injury lawsuit and going to court may become necessary. If this does happen, The Wolf Pack will fight tooth and nail to protect your rights. 

Do note that not all lawsuits end in a jury trial. The lawsuit simply begins a more formal legal process of reaching an outcome. If the insurance company knows that you are represented by an experienced attorney willing to take your case to trial, they will have a strong incentive to settle before the case reaches that point. 

Does Oklahoma Have Personal Injury Protection?

Personal injury protection (PIP) is not a requirement in Oklahoma and isn’t available as an add-on for your insurance. Instead of PIP, Oklahoma insurance companies offer an alternative, called medical payments coverage (or MedPay), to assist with medical expenses after a car accident. MedPay is like PIP insurance in that it handles your medical bills, but it covers less than PIP and doesn’t include options for home assistance or lost wages. 

Is Oklahoma an At-Fault State?

Oklahoma is an at-fault state. That means that if you were injured in a car accident here and another driver was responsible for the accident, you will be able to pursue compensation for your losses from the at-fault driver (or any other liable party, such as a trucking company) and their insurance company. 

What Are My Property Damage Rights?

In car accident injury cases, you may be able to seek compensation for the damage done to your vehicle. Whether your car has a few dents and scratches or it’s been totaled, property damage rights entitle you to have it repaired to the condition prior to the accident. If it can’t be repaired, you’re entitled to fair market value for your vehicle. Even if your car can be driven, it’s important to have it inspected by a mechanic and document all the damage. 

How Do I Get My Car Fixed?

Most insurance companies use insurance adjusters for property damage claims. These adjusters are different from the adjusters used for personal injury claims. 

Before you can have your car fixed, you will need to speak to the adjuster of the other driver’s insurance company. This person should have a copy of the accident report to analyze and determine the company’s liability. After that, they will have your car assessed for repair or replacement costs. If the insurance adjuster doesn’t admit fault, you will need to file your own claim. It’s best to have OKC car accident attorneys like The Wolf Pack for this process to ensure you seek fair compensation. 

What If the Driver Leaves the Scene or Is Uninsured?

Unfortunately, many accidents that result in injuries or property damage involve uninsured, underinsured, or hit-and-run drivers. If your auto insurance policy includes Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist coverage (UM/UIM), you can file a claim under this coverage. 

Say you suffer $50,000 in damages, but the at-fault driver is only carrying the minimum amount of $25,000 in liability insurance coverage per individual. If you have UM/UIM coverage, you can make an insurance claim with your own carrier to cover the extra $25,000. You can also make a UM/UIM claim if the other driver has no insurance, or you’re hurt in a hit-and-run. 

Oklahoma insurance carriers must offer you the option of purchasing at least as much UM/UIM coverage as you carry in liability insurance. We strongly urge all drivers to purchase as much UM/UIM coverage as they can reasonably afford, as it usually only costs a few extra dollars per month in premiums and offers essential financial protection against an accident with an uninsured driver or underinsured driver. 

How Do I Cover My Medical Expenses During My Case?

If your insurance policy doesn’t have provisions to cover medical expenses, such as MedPay, you will be responsible for your medical bills during your case. Your health insurance may cover your medical expenses. Your accident attorney can help you navigate this process. 

If your case reaches a settlement, your attorney can help you work with your health insurance company to reimburse them the medical costs from your accident-related injury. 

What If I’m Partly at Fault for My Accident?

Oklahoma is a comparative negligence state, meaning that the responsibility of each driver is evaluated and the fault is determined based on how much, and to what degree, each driver contributed to the accident. 

If, for example, you are determined to be 30% at fault and your claim is successful, you will only be able to recover 70% of your claimed damages (i.e., the full total minus 30 percent). In Oklahoma, if you are found to be more than 50% at fault, you cannot recover anything. 

These cases are decided on a case-by-case basis and can be complex. If you’re concerned about how comparative negligence might affect your case and possible settlement, let The Wolf Pack fight for you.
