What is the Oklahoma Statute of Limitations for Car Accidents?

Immediately following your auto accident, you need to plan to file an insurance claim. It is beneficial to file an injury claim in a matter of days or weeks after an accident caused by negligence, but according to Oklahoma law, an individual has up to two years to file a lawsuit for damages stemming from the day of your accident. You should plan to get started as soon as possible so that if your car accident claim is denied, our Tulsa accident attorneys can begin to fight for your rights.

By delaying your insurance claim, the insurance company may argue that you:

• Can’t recall exactly what happened
• Fabricated your injuries
• Were not forthcoming about the accident
• Held more responsibility in the accident than you claim
• Did not make a claim within a reasonable amount of time

What are Comparative Negligence Laws in Oklahoma?

Oklahoma is a state that uses comparative negligence as a way to disburse compensation fairly. This means if the insurance company can prove you were even partially at fault for the accident, they can reduce the amount they have to pay you. This is not good for your settlement. It is important that we begin gathering evidence as quickly as possible to help you tell your side of the story.

This is not the time to show mercy to the other driver, even though the insurance company will do their best to push you in that direction. Your recovery is what matters here, and that means you need all the compensation you can get. By fighting aggressively for your full and fair compensation, we can help you obtain the medical treatments you need to move forward.

How Long Does Whiplash Last After a Car Accident?

After being involved in a car accident in Oklahoma, you may experience whiplash, which is a neck sprain caused by a jerking movement. Initial symptoms of whiplash injuries generally include neck pain, dizziness, and jaw pain and typically heal within six weeks after a car accident.
