Learn MoreThe phrase “personal injury” refers to various types of injury affecting a person’s body, reputation, or emotions. The legal system addresses these cases by tort law in the legal system – designed to protect individuals who are harmed or injured due to the actions (or failure to act) of another person or organization.
The design of a personal injury case is to help you access available compensation from the person at fault. Thus, we help you build a case to establish who is at fault for your injuries. Typically, you can file personal injury claims in Oklahoma City on one of these grounds: negligence, liability, or intentional wrongs.
The best way to determine if you have a case worth pursuing is by talking to an Oklahoma City personal injury attorney about your injuries. When you schedule a consultation, please share as much information as possible with our team so we can evaluate the circumstances and improve the potential outcome for your case.
Many times, personal injury claims relate to bodily harm, such as:
When your Oklahoma City injury attorney helps you achieve a successful outcome for your case, you will receive monetary compensation for the injuries. The purpose of this payout is to compensate personal injury victims for their losses.
Not only is compensation available to cover medical bills, but you can often receive funds to reimburse lost wages, travel expenses, and more. In addition, other forms of personal injury compensation are usually available for household assistance, emotional and mental distress, and pain and suffering.
It’s difficult to determine the exact timeframe it will take to settle your personal injury claim. When the medical bills are piling up, it’s common for victims to ask about the anticipated completion of their case. Injury settlements can take weeks or years, depending on the extent of your injuries and factors contributing to the case. Most cases take between 1 to 3 years to reach a verdict.
Some of the most common factors that affect the timing of your case include:
The statute of limitations determines the length of time you have to file a claim after an injury occurs. Therefore, acting right away helps you avoid missing your opportunity for financial compensation.
The best way to speed up the process is by engaging the services of a qualified injury lawyer in Oklahoma City as soon as possible. Then, we’ll begin the initial paperwork, notify the other party of the pending claim, and work through court motions as needed.
Case research and discovery can take anywhere from 6 months to a year or more. Of course, if the case goes to trial, then it will extend the timeline. Sometimes, it can be as long as 1 to 2 years for the court to determine a verdict.
Our experienced team of attorneys at AMA Law has a streamlined system to address the most critical steps in your Oklahoma City personal injury case. When you hire our team, we provide a full-service approach that includes:
It’s essential to notify the defendant of the complaint and file the court paperwork. A summons notifies the other party they are being sued, a complaint outlines the facts of the case and why the defendant is liable.
During the discovery process, we gather evidence, dig up facts, and investigate circumstances surrounding the event. Discovery includes medical records, police reports, business documentation, security footage, and anything else.
When discovery is complete, we attempt a settlement through mediation, negotiation, or arbitration. If we can’t reach a reasonable settlement with the other party, it might be time to file a lawsuit.
When the other party isn’t willing to negotiate a settlement, we move forward with legal action. Sometimes, the lawsuit is filed sooner because of the timeline for your statute of limitations. If the case goes to court, then we follow through with full-service trial support.
Finally, when the case is successful, the collection process begins so you can receive the determined amount of compensation. You may receive this money as a lump sum or broken into payments.

I had the misfortune of being pulled over by a little OHP officer with a big ego and something to prove. Long story short I was guilty until proven innocent and needed legal assistance. Tommy Alder was extremely helpful, compassionate, and got the charges dropped without having to go to court. He is very personable and a good listener. I highly recommend him with any legal issue you have. It’s good to know you can get help when being wrongfully treated by law enforcement.

Working with AMA Law was the best experience I have ever had working with a law firm. They are truly dedicated to their clients and go above and beyond what you would ever expect an attorney to do for you. They are knowledgeable, well versed in the law and will go the extra mile to see a case to the end. I can't thank them enough for all of their hard work and I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs an attorney!

One of the most honest and professional groups of attorneys I’ve ever worked with, I specifically worked with Bria. At the time I had reached out to Adler Markoff & Associates I was hesitant about “hiring” an attorney. I was worried that my case and things would be taken advantage of and I ultimately would be pushed to the side for someone else’s gain. When I say you can truly trust these attorneys to do the best for you, I truly truly mean that. Bria took the time to explain things to me-and I mean every little thing, any questions or inquires I had were always taken care of in a timely manner. My case was settled, and I couldn’t be more thankful.They truly care about you and just not their gain. If you’re hesitant and not too sure on if you should call an attorney or try to fight it yourself, I’m telling you, call Adler Markoff & Associates! You won’t be disappointed. I actually chose them by reading what they have done for others. Now here we are! Call them if you need legal assistance! Thank you all so so much!!

I couldn’t have asked for anything more out of my experience with this law firm or my attorney, Dan Good. If you messed up, Dan’s the man to call. If you didn’t mess up but, someone says you did, Dan is the man to call. I was blown away by Dan after my first phone conversation with him. Dan clearly communicated what to expect and addressed everything running through my head when I was made aware I was charged with a crime: the timeline, the cost, the challenges, the avenues to resolve the case before trial and the potential outcomes of each avenue. Dan has a way of communicating directly but in a way that doesn’t induce panic or worry. I always felt like whatever came my way throughout the process Dan had my back and Dan was going to take care of it. From beginning to end, he did just that. Both Dan and Tommy’s presence in the courtroom are noteworthy. They are confident and clearly well respected. Bottom line, you gotta go with GOOD when you’re in a bad situation.
