Frequently Asked Questions

If you're looking for a truck accident lawyer near you in Stillwater or Payne County, choose a firm that understands federal trucking regulations and has experience with commercial carriers. Addison Law Firm handles 18-wheeler cases throughout Oklahoma and knows how to hold trucking companies accountable.
Oil field accidents are complex. Liability may extend to the driver, his employer, the company that hired the truck, and even the well site operator. We investigate all layers of liability.
Federal law mandates higher insurance limits for commercial trucks ($750k to $1M+). Also, the injuries are often more severe, and there may be punitive damages for corporate negligence.
This is spoliation of evidence. We can often recover data from the truck's Electronic Control Module (ECM) 'black box' and use the destruction of logs to prove guilt in court.
We work on contingency. You pay nothing unless we recover money for you.
