An Oklahoma wrongful death lawyer can help you get the compensation you deserve.


They will file a lawsuit on your behalf and make sure that all of the details are handled properly. They will also help with any legal proceedings that may arise in this type of case, so that there is no chance for anything to be overlooked or forgotten about. Your attorney will work hard to make sure that justice is served and closure can be reached for all parties involved.


Attorney fees are typically paid out of the amount recovered.

Attorney fees are typically paid only after a recovery by settlement or judgment. Attorney fees are not paid directly by the victim or their family, but rather they are a percentage of the amount recovered. For example, if you recover $50,000 in a wrongful death lawsuit and your lawyer receives 50% (or $25,000), then that would be how much would go toward his or her attorney fees.
