I had x-rays taken and my primary care doctor sent me to a specialist and now they want to do the MRI to find out what's wrong

An Oklahoma attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. You could reach out to local attorneys to learn about your rights, handling of medical bills, and other aspects of the accident. Free initial consults are the norm in such matters. Good luck

The specific details always matter such as the age of the child, size of the child, and exactly how this happened.
If the child was required to be in a booster seat and the parent simply failed to put the child in the seat, that's going to be one thing.
If a parent secures... View More

Sorry, but I don't think that you have a case. The divorce court apparently approved the sale, and 7 years later your claim would be barred by the statute of limitations.
It's time for you to move on and get over this.

you would want to consult an Oklahoma attorney, but my read would be 1) this is one divorcing person with another--let their attorneys handle it; if they have decided not to use attorneys, be aware that the person texted is getting free information, ammunition possibly. Why stop the flow. (In... View More

Proving common law is a fact-finding adventure and you should consult with a family law attorney to assist you. While it may seem very easy it in fact can be challenging to prove.

If you know about a crime, you go with them to the crime scene, you stay with them and you leave with them knowing what has occurred, you will almost always be charged as a codefendant. If you could show some coercion was applied to you, threats of some sort if you did not comply, and that you did... View More
