EST. ANNUAL COST OF Oklahoma CAR ACCIDENT FATALITIES
According to the
CDC, the economic toll of fatal auto accidents in Oklahoma in recent years has been more than $4.4 billion, including the
expense of medical care, missed income, and property damage. Due to the rise in the cost of living, the costs of treating injuries brought on by common causes and traffic accidents have often skyrocketed into the millions. Contact Hogan Smith today to determine if you or a loved one have a personal injury case.
An insurer may contact you with an initial offer if you file a personal injury claim. Remember that you might not be fairly compensated by this offer. It takes time to assess your damages precisely, and an insurance provider will want you to accept a minimal payment.
To ensure that your family is receiving everything to which they are entitled, we can evaluate any offer. If required, we can litigate your case and seek a just settlement. Even though some cases are settled before they go to trial, we occasionally file a lawsuit right away.

If We Don't Win,
You Don't Pay
Brian Hogan and Hogan Smith have amassed an exceptional track record in a variety of injury and accident disputes over the course of more than twenty years. Our attorneys will fight with you to make sure that you and your family have the resources to cover medical costs, unpaid wages, or future economic hardships due to debilitating injuries, whether the injuries are the result of car accidents or the negligence of business owners.
We maintain that you shouldn't be held responsible for the recklessness of another driver, property owner, employer, or medical practitioner. We have made it our mission to file personal injury cases for the maximum amount of damages possible.
Steps to Compensation
The most crucial action to take following an accident-related injury is to seek medical attention. Some people believe there is no need for an examination because they don't have any acute symptoms following the mishap. Even though you might not have any pain or discomfort right away after the injury, you might experience severe agony a year later.
Additionally, skipping medical care will hurt your chances of receiving financial compensation for your injuries. The insurance companies for the negligent party will utilize the fact that you delayed seeking medical attention after the accident to cast doubt on the severity of your injury and your right to reimbursement.
You could need a personal injury attorney to help you recover the full cost of your medical care if you were in a serious accident, your injuries require ongoing care or frequent hospital trips, or both.
Even if you decide against hiring one, you should at the very least speak with one about your claim. You might not be aware of some regulations, such as the statute of limitations, which establishes a deadline for filing a lawsuit. No matter how minor your accident or injury was, you might discover that filing a claim is trickier than you anticipated.
The third stage in making a personal injury claim is to notify the party responsible for your injuries and their insurance company that you intend to do so. This can be done by you or by your lawyer. This may occasionally facilitate a speedy resolution of your claim.
Now is the time to gather your medical bills and records from your doctors, talk to them about the full extent of your injuries, find out what kind of ongoing care you will need, gather bills and/or estimates for the damage to your car or personal property, keep track of lost wages, etc.
Your personal injury attorney at Hogan Smith will be responsible for contacting the responsible parties and their insurance company to reach a settlement agreement. You and your attorney will accept the offer if the settlement obtained via negotiations is one you will be content with. But if the respondent does not make a reasonable counteroffer, you can decide to sue in order to get the just recompense you deserve.
If our attorneys cannot reach a settlement agreement with the at-fault parties, we file a lawsuit with the courts. If your case goes to trial, we will present evidence, and the judge and jury will decide your compensation.

You Deserve Replacement Cost
As the victim of a car accident, you are entitled to the total amount needed to replace your vehicle. Extra costs that you might not have considered are:
Hiring a personal injury attorney will help you get the compensation you need to get back on the road and on with your life. Don't waste another day; call Hogan Smith to get started on your claim.
WERE YOU DECLARED AT FAULT?
YOUR INSURANCE STILL MUST PAY
You pay thousands of dollars each year for insurance to guarantee you will be reimbursed should an accident occur. If you carry collision coverage on your vehicle, you are entitled to all benefits required to replace your vehicle and pay for medical treatment, regardless of fault. If your insurance company is refusing to pay what you deserve, contact Hogan Smith today to fight for what you are entitled to.
An auto accident personal injury victim may be able to pursue compensation for their damages depending on the specifics of the incident or auto accident, the seriousness of their injuries, and other considerations.
Calculating the Unseen Personal Injury Costs
Pain and suffering are different for each claimant, but fairly common standards are used to calculate compensation. Things that will be considered are the physical pain caused by the vehicle accident injuries, the after-effects of the pain such as anxiety, loss of sleep, loss of appetite, the pain caused by needed treatments or therapies to treat your injuries, and the subsequent limitations on your life due to your injuries and/or treatments. Hogan Smith attorneys will help you gather the appropriate documentation and evidence to get the maximum compensation for your pain and suffering.
cover end-of-life expenses
When a car accident fatality occurs due to negligence, the family of the deceased may file a wrongful death claim. You may be compensated for damages such as medical treatments, funeral costs, potential future income, and the expenses of the dependents of the deceased. Our experienced personal injury attorneys are prepared to help you walk through this process during this difficult time. We help you gather the necessary documents to recover the money you need to cover final expenses, lost wages, and more.
And Why It Matters
After an automobile accident, you must proceed quickly. Don't wait to gather evidence in order to establish negligence and your own innocence. Calling the police and speaking with them should be your initial move, provided you do not require immediate transfer to a hospital. Ensure that an accident report is filed and that your description of the incident is included in the report.
It's crucial to compile witness statements and the contact information of anyone who stopped after observing the collision. While the police should question them as well, you should never rely on them to handle this task alone. To be safe and to use later, gather their statements yourself. If you learn that someone has been arrested days later, you can also obtain statements from prospective witnesses.
Making the Most of Your Accident Claim
According to Oklahoma law, a victim of a car accident may have the right and capacity to pursue compensation for economic compensatory damages, non-economic compensatory damages, and/or damages for pain and suffering when their injuries and/or property damage are caused directly by someone else's carelessness, recklessness, or negligence.
Even though a car accident is frequently referred to by other names like an automobile accident, auto accident, or motor vehicle accident, this field of law is covered by Oklahoma law's personal injury statutes. For additional information, get in touch with our personal injury attorneys.
It's still possible to obtain the money to which you are rightfully entitled, even if you accepted a settlement for your totaled vehicle. The five-year window in Oklahoma for filing a claim for property damage begins on the day the damage took place. Don't hesitate—get in touch with us right away!

Claims involving uninsured and underinsured motorists entail complicated legal and insurance jargon. You shouldn't attempt to file an uninsured or underinsured driver claim on your own. In a normal uninsured motorist case, the at-fault driver is not typically sued because it is likely that they lack insurance due to their financial situation. In most cases, you are filing a claim with your insurance provider. The goal of insurance companies is to give you the least amount of money; they can even reject your claim and give you nothing. The fact that other parties may share responsibility for your injuries only serves to exacerbate the situation.
When an uninsured motorist causes you harm, Hogan Smith will pursue reimbursement for you using every available legal tactic. Call us to arrange a free consultation.
