Fighting for Injured Oklahomans with 30 Years’ Combined Experience

When you or someone you love is hurt through another party’s negligence or recklessness, the aftermath is overwhelming. Medical bills pile up, income stops, and insurance companies move quickly to protect their own interests, not yours. Personal injuries happen every day in Tulsa, from car accidents to criminal attacks, and the financial and emotional toll on victims and their families can be severe.

Oklahoma law gives you the right to pursue damages for losses you’ve already suffered and those you’ll face down the road. With over 30 years of combined legal experience, our attorneys at Enlow Law are prepared to stand between you and the insurance company tactics designed to minimize what you recover.

Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle

Oklahoma’s statute of limitations gives injured victims two years from the date of injury to file a claim under Oklahoma Statutes Title 12, §95. Missing that deadline can permanently bar your recovery, so acting promptly matters. The cases we handle span a wide range of incidents, and the damages available can be substantial.

Cases We Handle

Personal injury cases can arise from:

Damages You Can Recover

You can pursue both economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages cover medical expenses, lost income or wages, and property damage. Non-economic damages include pain and suffering, mental anguish, disfigurement, and other intangible losses. In Oklahoma, there is no statutory cap on non-economic damages in personal injury cases. The Oklahoma Supreme Court struck down the former $350,000 cap as unconstitutional in Beason v. I.E. Miller Services, Inc., meaning juries may award non-economic damages based on the full weight of the evidence.

How to Prove Negligence in an Oklahoma Personal Injury Case

Proving negligence requires establishing four elements, each supported by evidence such as witness testimony, expert opinions, and medical records. Our attorneys help you gather and present what’s needed to build a compelling case.

  • Duty of Care: The defendant had a legal obligation to take reasonable steps to prevent harm to you.
  • Breach of Duty: The defendant failed to act reasonably and did not take the necessary steps to prevent harm.
  • Causation: The defendant’s breach directly caused your injuries, meaning your injuries wouldn’t have occurred had they fulfilled their duty.
  • Damages: You suffered provable physical, emotional, or financial losses as a result of the defendant’s breach.

We prepare every case for trial from day one. That discipline gives us leverage in negotiations and helps ensure no element of your claim is left underdeveloped.

Oklahoma’s Modified Comparative Fault Rule

Not every accident is entirely one party’s fault. Oklahoma follows a modified comparative negligence standard under Title 23, §13 of the Oklahoma Statutes: an injured person can still recover damages as long as their share of fault doesn’t exceed 50%. At 51% or more, recovery is completely barred. When a plaintiff does share some responsibility, their compensation is reduced in proportion to their percentage of fault.

Insurance companies understand this rule well and routinely try to inflate a claimant’s share of fault to shrink or eliminate what they owe. Fault narratives are often shaped long before a case reaches trial, which is why early investigation and evidence preservation are critical. Our team conducts systematic evidence review and motion practice from the outset, working to keep your share of fault as low as the facts support and to pursue compensation that reflects your losses.
