Stories from the Frontlines of Lawsuit Abuse

Busy Time for Oklahoma Personal Injury Lawyers

Oct 26th, 2011 by Project Lawsuit Abuse

Not ones to miss out on opportunities to file lawsuits, personal injury lawyers are making the last few days before Oklahoma’s cap on non-economic damages goes into effect count.

Personal injury attorneys have been crowding the airwaves more than usual – with lawyers buying up airtime encouraging Oklahomans to file their lawsuits now.

One lawyer told KFOR that he has filed 500 percent of what he would normally file in an entire year in the past two weeks.

Says one lawyer: "I would not want to be a court clerk on Monday, October 31."

Our only hope is that the claims in the lawsuits filed are legitimate – and that any awards benefit the victims more than the personal injury lawyers.
