Who Can File a Wrongful Death Lawsuit in Oklahoma?

In general, the family member of the deceased can file a lawsuit and recover compensation in Oklahoma. But they claim the coverage within a limited timeframe. Otherwise, it will get denied. The domestic partner or surviving spouse is eligible to get the claim or other dependent family members of the deceased, including stepchildren, parents, children and grandchildren, can also file a wrongful death lawsuit. They should hire a wrongful death attorney to get the most out of the claim and expedite the process. However, there is no way you can know the exact amount of compensation before getting the approval.
