I Was in a Car Accident That Was Not My Fault. Can I Sue for Damages?

If you were involved in a car accident in Oklahoma and the other driver was at fault, you will most likely be able to sue for damages. Because every case is different, it is very difficult for us to give you a definitive answer without hearing the details of your accident. You should always seek out the advice of an experienced Oklahoma accident lawyer such as the ones at Stipe Injury Law after you’ve been involved in an automobile accident. For several years now, we have helped people just like you deal with the trauma of a car accident and the injuries that may have accompanied the accident. During this stressful time, we want you to focus on getting better while we focus on the legal aspect of your car accident.

When another driver is at fault, the plaintiff (you, the injured party) can sue for damages and collect monetary compensation to help pay for:

· Medical bills

· Prescriptions

· Physical rehabilitation, if necessary

· Long-term medical care, if necessary

· Present and future lost wages

· Pain and suffering, in some cases

· Funeral expenses, in the case of wrongful death

We recommend that you only give the police the statement they will need at the scene of the accident. Please do not speak to any insurance companies or agree to any financial settlement. Doing so will certainly prevent you from being able to sue for damages. Insurance companies may appear to be on your side, but their job is to pay out as little money as possible in the event of a car accident. Instead of speaking to insurance companies, you should contact the injury lawyers at Stipe Injury Law, serving all of Oklahoma, today to schedule a confidential consultation.
