How Does Shared Fault Affect My Compensation if I’m Partial to Blame for an Accident in Oklahoma?
In this blog post, Mike Ashworth, the head of personal injury law at the Wirth Law Office in Tulsa, answers the question of how shared fault affects compensation in Oklahoma. He explains that in the past, the formula for compensation changed in Oklahoma, introducing joint and several liability for defendants. However, he focuses on the broader concept of comparative negligence. Using an example of a motor vehicle accident where the injured party is found to be 40% at fault and the other party 60% at fault, Ashworth explains that the injured party’s recovery will be paid 60% by the more at fault party. Similarly, if the case goes to a jury trial, the verdict will be reduced by the injured party’s percentage of fault (40%). Ashworth concludes by providing his contact information for those seeking legal assistance.

What Do I Need to Prove if I’m Injured Due to Someone Else’s Carelessness in Oklahoma?
In Oklahoma, if you’re injured due to someone else’s negligence, there are certain elements you need to prove in order to seek compensation. Firstly, there must be a duty owed by the defendant to the plaintiff. Secondly, there must be a breach of that duty, meaning the defendant failed to meet their obligation. Thirdly, you must have suffered measurable damages, such as medical bills or lost wages. Lastly, you need to establish a causal connection between the defendant’s breach of duty and the damages you suffered.
