Ever wondered how the whole process works when it comes to hiring an attorney and obtaining a settlement? This article series will seek to answer some common questions about key topics in the lawsuit or insurance claim settlement process in Oklahoma.

Good Lawyers Keep Clients informed of the lawsuit and settlement process in Oklahoma

Savvy clients will want to know everything about their lawsuit process, from how to determine settlement amount to knowing when to take the defendant or insurance company’s offer. When the money does arrive, how is it distributed? How are medical bills and/or liens paid out of the settlement amount and how is the attorney paid? These are good questions, and I strive to make sure my clients are informed.

Just calling a law office alone can be nerve racking for a prospective client, much less hiring counsel and entering into litigation, making decisions about settlement, and dealing with all the medical bills, hospital liens, insurance subrogation, and trying to figure what you will take home after all that has been deducted, plus paying your attorney and all expenses.

My clients all have one thing in common: they’ve been harmed. By teaming up with us, my clients get vindication of their rights, and the opportunity to make the defendants or the insurance company pay for their bad conduct.
