  • Oklahoma Expungement - Can I Clear My Criminal Record?

    If you've ever been convicted of a felony or misdemeanor, you may have the option to get your record expunged. An expungement is a time sensitive and detail-oriented civil suit against the record keeping agencies. First time offender has the right to seek that the records of the earlier process be sealed, thereby making the records unavailable through the state or Federal repositories. In other words, once you pay your dues, you can start over with a clean slate, almost like your conviction never happened.

     

  • Oklahoma DUI Attorneys - First Time Offenses

    For years, public policy has called for extreme penalties for anyone convicted of drug charges or drug trafficking.

  • Reglan - Defective Drug Lawsuits

    Reglan (metoclopramide) is a drug that increases muscle contractions in the upper digestive tract, which helps the passage of food through the stomach to the intestines. Therefore, Reglan is often prescribed to treat heartburn, vomiting, and nausea caused by diabetic gastroparesis, a condition in which the stomach does not contract.

     

  • Reglan Side Effects Could Include Parkinson's-Like Symptoms

    Millions of people suffer from gastrointestinal problems that include diabetic gastroparesis and heartburn generated by gastroesophageal reflux.  Unfortunately, those who suffered from these difficult conditions had no choice but to basically make the best of it for many years.  However, recent developments in the pharmaceutical industry have made it possible to treat these two conditions, and one of the companies that formulated a product that showed promise was Baxter Pharmaceuticals.  Their product is known as Reglan, and eventually reports of Reglan side effects began to emerge that were extremely troubling.  As a result of these reports, many people around the country soon found a need for help from a Reglan side effects lawyer.  Below is a look at the most serious Reglan side effect.

  • Possible Correlation Between Provigil and Stevens-Johnson Syndrome

    Millions of people suffer from two all-too-common sleep disorders known as obstructive sleep apnea and narcolepsy.  While these conditions are not similar in terms of their causes and symptoms, they are in regards to the effects they have on those who suffer from either one of them.  That effect is chronic fatigue and the tendency to suffer from random sleeping spells that can occur at dangerous times during the day.  In response to the growing need for help with these conditions, Cephalon, Inc. formulated and obtained approval from the FDA to market a drug known as Provigil.

    Provigil was seen as an early success, as it provides a boost of awareness for those who use it, thereby minimizing the chance that unexpected sleeping spells will befall the user.  Provigil was seen as so useful that it began to be used off-label by those in such professions as fighter pilot and truck driver for that same awareness boost.  Unfortunately, reports of problems in those who used Provigil eventually began to surface, and Provigil side effects lawyers began to receive inquiries from patients who needed legal help.  Below is a look at the most devastating alleged Provigil side effect reported to date.

  • Filing for Divorce in Oklahoma

  • Family Law Center - Oklahoma Waiver Divorce

    Many Oklahomans are not familiar with waiver divorce.

  • Electronic Billboards - A Danger to Drivers?

    Although electronic billboards are more common in large cities such as Las Vegas and New York City, they've become more and more abundant throughout the United States. Currently, only about 2,000 of the nation’s 450,000 billboards are digitized, but this number will continue to grow in the coming years. Advertisers like them because they allow ads to circulate every six to eight seconds and can change advertisements according to timeliness and relevancy. Critics, however, are not impressed. Electronic billboards are just one more distraction to drivers, who already juggle with texting, iPods, and numerous other attention-getters while they should be focusing solely on the road.

     

  • The Role of an Insurance Claim Adjuster at the Scene of a Trucking Accident

    Trucking accidents occur at a high rate of frequency in Oklahoma, and when they do occur, several different parties immediately get involved with the aftermath of an accident.  One of those parties is the insurance adjuster, and below you'll find information regarding his or her role at the scene of any trucking accident.  In the meantime, if you or someone you love has been harmed in such an accident, you should not depend on anyone other than an experienced Oklahoma trucking accident lawyer for the help you need protecting your legal rights.

  • Nursing Home Abuse - Signs of Neglect

    The population of the United States is collectively getting older, and with that reality comes the result that nursing home and elder care facilities will continue to be further stretched to the limit in terms of their infrastructure and resources.  Regardless of those unfortunate trends, however, there is still no excuse for any sort of nursing home neglect or abuse.  Nursing home neglect and abuse are also becoming more and more of a problem, and many people have sought the help of Oklahoma nursing home abuse and neglect lawyers to protect the rights of those they love.  Below are some warning signs to be mindful of if you have a loved one living in a nursing home or assisted living facility.

  • Oklahoma Worker's Compensation and Third Party Liability

    When someone is injured while at work, that person is usually entitled to worker's compensation benefits that provide basics in terms of medical care and at least partial payment of the worker's income until such time as he or she is able to return to normal duties.  However, there is at least one other issue of liability that can arise if someone is injured at work, and that situation arises when a worker is injured by someone who is not employed or working at the same place and who was negligent.  These situations are known as third party liability, and anyone who's suffered through this scenario needs the help of an Oklahoma worker's compensation lawyer.

  • 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.

     

  • The Prius Could be Joining the List of Defective Toyota Vehicles

    Toyota has had about as bad a year as any company in the world, and for good reason.  The company has overseen several Toyota recalls that affected more than 8 million vehicles, and as a result the Toyota brand has been damaged perhaps beyond repair.  Until recently, and fortunately for Toyota, the Prius has largely avoided this issue.  There was a small recall of certain Prius models for problems with the braking system, but given its status as one of the highest-selling vehicles in the world Toyota has managed to stay afloat.  That's why several recent reports regarding the Prius are quite daunting not only for Toyota but for millions of consumers to the point where Toyota recall lawyers are once again being sought for help all over the United States.

  • Toyota Accidents Due to Faulty Accelerator Create Big Liability for Auto Maker

    The series of massive Toyota recalls in recent weeks has legal experts tossing out comparative situations that are truly historic in nature.  Such cases as the tobacco litigation are being used as a comparison, and others are stating that the forthcoming boom in litigation against Toyota could result in this issue becoming the largest defective products situation in the legal history of the automotive market.  All this should make it clear that Toyota accidents due to a faulty accelerator create big liability for the auto maker.  Toyota recall lawyers all over the United States are getting involved in handling inquiries from consumers and filing legal claims already.  Below is a look at two potential theories that could be used to substantiate claims for massive damages should Toyota accidents occur.

  • Reports of Cruise Control Problems with Toyota Prius Emerge

    Toyota has been dominating the automotive market around the world for what seems like decades, and in recent years when the automobile market overall took a decisive downturn, Toyota managed to continue to move forward largely on the back of the Prius.  The Prius is a hybrid vehicle that's one of the best-selling models of automobiles in the world, and even though it was indirectly affected by the recent massive Toyota recall, the reason was because of potential problems with the brakes and not with the accelerator pedal that led to the recall of millions of Toyota models.  However, now comes word that reports are surfacing regarding a potential Prius defect with the cruise control function that has created immediate danger for those who have experienced it.  This is just one more reason that Toyota recall lawyers are being contacted for help all over the United States.
