    Choosing an Oklahoma lawyer is a decision that everyone must come to on their own.

In an effort to help you, we provided a few key concepts that should assist in making your decision easier. In most situations, hiring an Attorney comes down to a few key concepts.

  • Getting a DUI on Private Property in Oklahoma

    In the past, it was not illegal to drink and drive in areas that were designated as private property. Although some states still restrict the offense of a DUI to public property, in Oklahoma, you can be charged with a DUI while operating a motor vehicle on private property. It is not safe to assume that just because you are on private property, you are immune from an arrest or conviction.

  • Holiday DUI Checkpoints

    While the holiday season is a time for being with family and spreading cheer, its also the time to indulge in celebration, which also means higher amounts of drunk drivers... which in turn leads to an increase in DUIs.

  • Alleged Heart Attack Side Effects in Yasmin Lawsuits

    Bayer Healthcare is one of the true giants of the pharmaceutical world, and one of their lines of products concerning prescription birth control medications has generated billions of dollars in revenue in recent years.  The original medication released by Bayer Healtchare is known as Yasmin, and it has been on the market for several years and has been used by women across the world who wanted to prevent unforeseen pregnancies.  Unfortunately, there have been a growing number of reports of Yasmin side effects developing in women who were using it, and many of them were extremely serious.  As a result of this development, Yasmin side effects lawyers have been contacted throughout the United States to provide help to those who have been harmed.  Below is an overview of the alleged link between Yasmin and heart attacks.

     

  • Deep Vein Thrombosis and Yasmin Correlation?

    Yasmin has been one of the leaders on the birth control market for years now, and that's primarily because it's shown itself to be effective in terms of preventing unwanted pregnancies.  Yasmin is manufactured by Bayer Healthcare, and it's also been heavily marketed in the United States and around the world through a series of aggressive advertising campaigns, many of which have been shown on television.  Unfortunately for many, the drug has also been linked to the development of serious Yasmin side effects, one of which being an otherwise rare condition known as Deep Vein Thrombosis, or DVT as it's commonly known.  If someone has contracted DVT as a result of using Yasmin, the need for help from a defective drugs attorney has arisen for obvious reasons.

  • How Common are Back Injuries for Motorcycle Accident Victims?

    Motorcycle accidents occur in Oklahoma with alarming consistency, and when these accidents do occur, they generally lead to injuries and even fatalities.  There are many reasons for this reality, including the obvious vulnerability of motorcycle drivers and passengers compared to those riding in larger vehicles and the smaller size of motorcycles compared to cars, trucks and SUV's that can weigh more than one ton.  When these incidents occur and injuries result, the need for help from an Oklahoma motorcycle accident lawyer arises.  One of the most common and serious injuries that results from motorcycle accidents is the back injury, and below is a brief overview of this issue.

  • Whiplash Symptoms to Look for After a Car Accident

    If you've been involved in a car accident and feel any sort of pain or discomfort that you can't quite identify, it could be whiplash.  Whiplash has long been panned by many as a made-up sort of injury that provides those who have been in accidents with a reason to file a lawsuit, but nothing could be further from the truth.  Whiplash is real, it's painful, it can be completely debilitating and it can last for the rest of a person's life.  That's why the need for an Oklahoma whiplash lawyer is so extreme if someone does suffer from whiplash after a collision - it can be difficult to prove and a prognosis from medical professionals can be difficult to obtain with a high degree of certainty.

     

  • Who Covers Medical Expenses if You've Been Injured at Work?

    Workplace injuries happen at an alarming pace, which is one of the many reasons that Oklahoma has an extensive body of laws that govern these situations.  While these extensive rules and regulations are intended to minimize confusion, controversy and ambiguity regarding what should happen, when it should occur and who should pay for benefits, adversarial situations still arise.  When a workers' compensation claim stalls or is denied wrongfully, the injured worker needs the help of an Oklahoma workers' compensation lawyer who can help revive the claim in question.

    Scenario: I was hurt at work just before Christmas and I have not been able to work since the accident. My company has sent me to see an orthopedic specialist who says I need neck surgery.
