Insurance Companies Will Try to Avoid Paying You

It is not unusual to hear from an insurance company adjuster soon after an accident that has caused serious injuries or other losses. However, insurance adjustors typically offer lowball settlements that are based on past payouts, not your personal economic or noneconomic losses.

Beware: Insurance companies are not in business to compensate you for the true extent of your losses. In fact, an insurance adjustor is obligated to protect the company’s bottom line by paying as little as possible for accident claims.

That’s why you should never give a statement, sign anything, or accept any payment from an insurance company after a serious accident unless you have spoken with an experienced personal injury attorney in Oklahoma. You could be signing away your rights to the full compensation you need and deserve.

How Our Oklahoma Personal Injury Attorney Can Help

When you choose our law firm to represent you, our skilled personal injury attorney will:

  • Investigate your accident to identify who is legally responsible and how bad your injuries are. Depending on the circumstances of your accident, there may be multiple parties who should be held liable.
  • Identify all insurance policies held by the liable parties with coverage that is applicable to your accident and injuries. We will also examine insurance you hold for coverage that should compensate you.
  • Calculate your total economic loss from the accident. Particularly if you have been disabled or will otherwise require future medical treatment or care, or be unable to return to work, we will consult with experts to determine your future needs and costs.
  • Consult with you, your family, acquaintances, etc., to determine the personal impact of your injuries (to build an argument for noneconomic damages).
  • Ensure you have the additional assistance and support you need, such as providing referrals for general or specialized medical care, retrieving your car and/or other personal property if you have been unable to, and notifying creditors and others of your accident and status.
  • Be available to answer any questions you have about the status of your case, and respond promptly to your calls and emails, even at night and on weekends.
  • Aggressively negotiate with the insurance companies in pursuit of the maximum compensation you deserve.
  • File a personal injury lawsuit to demand appropriate compensation if the at-fault party refuses to reach a reasonable settlement.
  • Present a strong and persuasive case in court, if necessary. However, our attorneys are often able to negotiate strong settlements even after filing a lawsuit.

At the Cain Law Office, we believe the insurance payment you receive after a serious injury should make you financially whole. You should not be left to deal with lingering debt from your accident, and if you are now suffering from a disability, you should not have to worry about how you will support yourself and/or your family in the future.

Compensation in Oklahoma Personal Injury Cases

Determining how much an accident has truly affected you financially ─ and will continue to affect you ─ is crucial in a personal injury claim. Our attorneys go above and beyond to thoroughly document your damages and craft a solid case for compensation that includes:

  • Economic Damages (reimbursement for out-of-pocket payments or outstanding bills):
    • Medical expenses, both currently and in the future
    • Personal property damage, e.g., car repairs or replacement
    • Lost income, including projected future losses
  • Noneconomic Damages (payment for intangible losses):
    • Physical pain and suffering
    • Emotional distress
    • Loss of consortium (for a spouse’s death or disability)

Economic damages are paid according to an accounting of past, current, and projected costs related to your accident and injuries. Noneconomic damages are determined by a jury (or in a negotiated settlement) based on evidence of the accident’s effect on you and your lifestyle.

The State of Oklahoma caps noneconomic damages at $350,000 in most personal injury cases. However, in cases in which the at-fault party has exhibited reckless disregard for others or has acted intentionally and with malice toward others, a jury may lift the cap and award punitive damages beyond the noneconomic damages limit.

How Is Fault Determined in Oklahoma Personal Injury Cases?

personal injury cases from Cain Law Offices

Oklahoma considers “shared fault,” or what’s legally called “modified comparative fault,” in personal injury cases. Under this rule, the compensation an injured person receives can be reduced according to how much blame for the accident he or she shares.

For example, if you were speeding at the time of a car accident or if you were looking at your phone and texting when you slipped and fell in spilled liquid at a grocery store, you would likely share fault for the accident.

If a jury decides you are 30 percent at fault for an accident, for example, the amount of compensation it would have awarded will be reduced by 30 percent. So if the original jury award would have been $10,000, you would receive $7,000. If you are more than 50 percent at fault, you would not receive any compensation.

At the Cain Law Office, our dedicated Oklahoma personal injury attorneys will work to mitigate any negative evidence against you and to rebut any false injury claims made to diminish the amount of compensation you are owed.

Our attorneys can help clients in Oklahoma City, Edmond, Midwest City, Moore, Norman, and many other surrounding areas in Oklahoma.

What Is a Personal Injury Case?

The term “personal injury” covers a wide range of scenarios involving injuries that are caused by another person’s or company’s negligence. Typically, in a personal injury case, you are pursuing compensation from the at-fault party’s insurance company. Because insurance companies have armies of lawyers aggressively defending their bottom lines, it is crucial that you obtain help from an experienced personal injury lawyer as soon as possible after an accident.

Our highly respected accident lawyers have successfully secured maximum compensation in a wide range of personal injury cases, including:

Most personal injury claims in Oklahoma must be filed within two years of the date of injury, though different types of cases have different deadlines. Because developing a case can be complex and time-consuming, it is important to contact a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible after an accident to avoid the statute of limitations restraints.
