Why quick action matters in Oklahoma
Oklahoma generally allows two years from the date of injury for most personal injury and wrongful death lawsuits (12 O.S. 95). Claims involving a government entity are much tighter: a written notice of claim within one year under the Governmental Tort Claims Act, then a short window to sue once the claim is denied — and damages are capped by statute. Evidence fades fast either way: skid marks weather, video gets erased, witnesses scatter. This is general information, not legal advice; a participating law firm can explain the deadlines that apply to you.
