Personal injury cases are cases in which someone is injured because of the negligence or abuse of another party that results in physical or psychological harm. As a victim in a personal injury claim, you have the right to file suit against the negligent party in an effort to obtain monetary compensation for your injuries.
Suffering from the after effects of a personal injury is a daunting prospect. Not only must you deal with the physical pain and suffering, you must somehow account for lost wages and possible disability. Most people are unequipped to cope with their physical and emotional recuperation on top of filing a personal injury lawsuit.
For over 20 years, the people in Oklahoma have turned to the attorneys at Stipe Injury Law to help establish and file their personal injury claim.
Why do you need a personal injury lawyer?
Causes of personal injury include:
- Automobile accident
- Motorcycle accident
- Railroad or truck accident
- Improper prescription drug dosing
- Failure to diagnose, misdiagnoses of deadly diseases, surgical errors, or other forms of medical malpractice
- Any situation in which a victim suffers injury or death through someone else’s negligence or deliberate misdeeds
During a personal injury trial the plaintiff must prove that the defendant acted in a negligent manner and that this behavior resulted in physical or psychological damage. It is important to document your injury with as much direct evidence as possible from the start. Take pictures of the accident location and write down any statements made by the defendant expressing or implying their guilt.
Sometimes the cause of an injury or illness may not be readily apparent. If you suffer from an industrial disease suffered in your work place, you may not even pinpoint the cause for months or even years later. It is imperative that you seek legal counsel as soon as you suspect that your personal injury was the result of negligence.
The attorneys at Stipe Injury Law operate on a contingency basis, which means that you do not pay us a fee until your case has been won or settled out of court. At that time we will be compensated at a percentage of the damages awarded to you.

Although medical professionals are required by law to exercise the utmost care, skill and diligence when treating their patients, it is estimated that over 90,000 people every year are either injured or killed due to physician or nurse error. 
When workers are injured, employers and their workers compensation insurance carrier are responsible for providing those employees with the medical care they need as quickly as possible. 
If you are disabled, and can no longer work, the federal government offers disability payments to individuals who qualify under the Social Security Disability Insurance plan.
