Seeking Compensation for Negligent Accidents

Under Oklahoma law, a wrongful death claim can be filed by the estate of someone who died as a result of someone else's negligence. Wrongful death law is similar to personal injury law in that it involves many of the same underlying situations, such as the following:

• Motor vehicle accidents
• Truck accidents
• Nursing home negligence and abuse
• Defective products
• Slip and fall incidents and animal attacks

If you have a valid wrongful death claim, your family is entitled to compensation for your pain and suffering, funeral expenses, lost income and other damages.

Guiding the Probate Administrator Through the Claim Process

If the deceased person left a will and the estate is going through probate, a wrongful death claim can be brought by the probate administrator before the estate is closed at the end of the probate process.

In the absence of a will, family members will need to open an estate in the probate court and get an administrator appointed in order to move forward with a wrongful death case. Our firm can assist you with this process as well.
