At Burrage Law Firm, PLLC, our wrongful death attorneys are here to help you seek justice, accountability and the financial support your family needs.

When a serious car accident, workplace injury or act of negligence leads to a fatality, you shouldn’t have to fight alone. Insurance companies often fall short in truly valuing what has been lost.

Our goal is to take care of all the details and ensure the financial costs are covered so you can focus on grieving your loss.

What Types Of Compensation Are Available In Wrongful Death Matters?

Families affected by wrongful death may be eligible for several types of compensation, including:

  • Funeral and burial expenses
  • Loss of the deceased’s expected income
  • Loss of benefits such as health insurance or retirement contributions
  • Emotional suffering experienced by surviving family members
  • Loss of companionship, guidance and emotional support
  • Medical expenses related to the deceased’s final care

Our goal as your wrongful death attorney is to protect your rights and ease your financial burden so you can focus on healing.

When Must A Wrongful Death Lawsuit Be Filed In Oklahoma?

In Oklahoma, you must file a wrongful death lawsuit within two years from the date of your loved one’s death. Missing this deadline can result in losing the right to compensation. That’s why it’s important to contact a qualified wrongful death attorney as early as possible to preserve evidence and protect your claim.

How Does Oklahoma’s Negligence Law Affect A Wrongful Death Case?

Oklahoma follows a modified comparative negligence system. This means if your loved one was found to be partially at fault, it may reduce the amount of compensation awarded. If they were more than 50% responsible, the family may not be able to recover damages. An experienced wrongful death attorney will investigate all details, work to prove fault and advocate for the maximum recovery.
