Common Causes of Car Accidents

Most car accident claims in Moore trace back to driver negligence: distracted driving, speeding along I-35 and the Moore-Norman corridor, impaired driving, or failure to yield at intersections along 19th Street and South Telephone Road. Identifying exactly what the other driver did wrong is often the difference between a denied claim and a fair settlement, which is why we investigate every crash thoroughly rather than relying solely on the police report.

We have the experience and resources to handle all types of car accident claims, including those involving:

• Rear-end collisions
• T-bone and intersection collisions
• Head-on collisions
• Multi-vehicle pileups
• Hit-and-run accidents
• Rideshare accidents involving Uber and Lyft
• Commercial truck accidents
• Drunk or impaired driving accidents

Common Concerns After a Crash

• "I think I was partly at fault." Oklahoma's modified comparative negligence rule (23 O.S. § 13) still allows you to recover if you're 50% or less at fault; your award is simply reduced by your share.
• "It's already been a few months." You have two years from the accident date to file suit under Oklahoma law (12 O.S. § 95), but evidence and witness memories fade quickly, so it's best not to wait.
• "The other driver didn't have insurance." If you have coverage under an applicable uninsured or underinsured motorist policy, it may provide another source of compensation when the responsible driver has no insurance or insufficient limits. Oklahoma permits policyholders to reject UM coverage in writing, so the policy documents need to be reviewed.
• "I don't know if my pain and suffering claim is worth anything." For bodily injuries occurring on or after September 1, 2025, noneconomic damages are generally limited to $500,000 under 23 O.S. § 61.3. The limit does not apply to permanent and severe physical injuries or when the required findings are made concerning reckless disregard, gross negligence, fraud, intentional conduct, or malice. A separate $1 million limit applies to certain permanent mental injuries that severely impair employment or independent living. Economic damages are not capped under this statute.

The Claims Process After a Car Accident

• Investigation. We gather the crash report, medical records, witness accounts, and available video or vehicle data to determine how the collision occurred.
• Medical and financial documentation. We track treatment, missed income, expected future care, and the ways the injuries affect the client’s daily life.
• Demand and negotiation. Once the injuries and losses are sufficiently documented, we present the claim to the appropriate insurer and respond to fault disputes or inadequate offers.
• Litigation when warranted. If the insurer refuses to offer a reasonable resolution, we are prepared to file suit and pursue the claim in court.

Timelines vary based on the injuries, disputed issues, and whether litigation becomes necessary. Some claims resolve without a lawsuit, while serious or contested cases generally take longer.

What Determines the Value of Your Claim

No two car accident cases are worth the same amount. The value of your claim generally depends on:

• The severity and permanency of your injuries
• How clear liability is, and whether the other driver disputes fault
• The at-fault driver's insurance policy limits
• Documented lost wages and future earning capacity
• The strength of your medical records and treatment history

We build your case around these factors from day one, which is why we prepare every claim as if it's going to trial rather than waiting to see what the insurance company offers first.

Frequently Asked Questions

What If the Accident Happened While I Was Driving for Work?

You may have both a workers' compensation claim through your employer and a separate personal injury claim against the at-fault driver. These claims work differently and often run at the same time, so it's worth having an attorney review both.

Can Passengers in My Car File Their Own Claim?

Passengers may have their own claims against one or more drivers who contributed to the collision, including the driver of the vehicle they occupied.

Should I Wait to File Until I'm Done with Medical Treatment?

You don't need to finish treatment before starting a claim, but you generally shouldn't settle until your treatment is complete or your condition has stabilized. Settling early can mean accepting less than your claim is actually worth.

Who Is Liable in a Multi-Vehicle Pileup?

More than one driver may share responsibility. We investigate the sequence of impacts and each driver’s conduct to identify the responsible parties and insurance policies that may apply.
