Motor Vehicle Accident Litigation

At Schaffer Herring PLLC, we represent individuals involved in serious car, truck, and motorcycle collisions across Tulsa and the surrounding communities. If you or a loved one was injured due to another driver’s negligence, our attorneys can guide you through the complexities of motor vehicle accident litigation and help you pursue the compensation you deserve.

We proudly serve clients in Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Bixby, Jenks, Owasso, Sand Springs, Glenpool, and throughout northeastern Oklahoma.

Understanding Motor Vehicle Accident Claims

A motor vehicle accident claim is more than just a formality with an insurance company. It’s a legal process that protects your right to fair compensation. In many cases, insurers try to minimize payouts or deny valid claims altogether. That’s where we come in.

Our attorneys handle litigation involving:

  • Rear-end, head-on, and T-bone collisions
  • Distracted or impaired driving
  • Speeding or reckless driving
  • Commercial vehicle and semi-truck crashes
  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Multi-vehicle or chain-reaction crashes

If another driver’s careless actions caused your injuries, Oklahoma law allows you to pursue damages through a personal injury claim.

How We Approach Motor Vehicle Accident Litigation

We prepare every case as if it will go to trial. This allows us to negotiate from a position of strength and ensures we’re ready for court if the insurance company won’t offer a fair settlement.

Our team handles every part of your claim, including:

  • Investigating crash reports and scene evidence
  • Identifying all responsible parties
  • Working with medical experts to assess injuries
  • Calculating economic and non-economic damages
  • Handling communication with insurers
  • Litigating aggressively when necessary

From the first consultation to final resolution, we stay focused on your recovery and legal outcome.

Common Injuries in Car Accident Cases

Our attorneys handle personal injury claims arising from car, motorcycle, and truck accidents in Tulsa and throughout northeastern Oklahoma. Whether the collision occurred on Highway 75, I-44, or a local road in Broken Arrow or Jenks, we help clients recover damages for medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.

Commercial Vehicle Injuries

Motor vehicle accidents often result in serious and lasting injuries. We have represented clients who have suffered:

  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
  • Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
  • Broken bones or fractures
  • Internal organ damage
  • Soft tissue injuries and whiplash
  • Emotional trauma and PTSD

In many cases, recovery can take months—or even years. That’s why our legal team fights for full compensation, not just short-term relief.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have to file a car accident lawsuit in Oklahoma?

In most cases, you have two years from the date of the accident. However, specific facts can affect your deadline, so consult an attorney as soon as possible.

What if the other driver’s insurance company contacts me?

You are not required to speak with the other driver’s insurer. In fact, it’s often better to let your attorney handle communications to avoid harming your claim.

Can I still recover damages if I was partially at fault?

Yes. Under Oklahoma’s modified comparative negligence rule, you can recover damages if you were less than 51% at fault, but your compensation will be reduced proportionally.
