Important Things to Know About Fatal Car Accidents in Oklahoma 

Navigating the legal complexities surrounding a fatal car accident can be overwhelming. It’s important to be aware of the regulations and statutes that apply.  

• Oklahoma is a comparative fault state which means that drivers can be found partially at fault for an accident. This percentage is assigned based on how much fault is determined which may limit their compensation. For example, if a plaintiff is found 10% at fault, they would only be able to receive 90% of the overall compensation. 
• Oklahoma’s statute of limitations gives victims 2 years from the date of the accident to file an injury lawsuit.
