Oklahoma City IsDangerous

Birth injuries caused by medical negligence can have lifelong consequences for children and families across Oklahoma City and Oklahoma County. These are not random outcomes — they are often the result of medical professionals failing to monitor, respond, or act in time during labor and delivery. OU Health University of Oklahoma Medical Center and Mercy Hospital OKC serve the delivery and pediatric needs of families across the metro. When those deliveries go wrong because of medical negligence, families are often dismissed and told complications were unavoidable. Oklahoma's new non-economic damages cap does not limit economic damages — including lifetime medical care costs. TopDog fights to get every dollar your child deserves.

Warning

IMPORTANT OKLAHOMA LEGAL INFORMATION — BIRTH INJURY

Statute of Limitations: For children under 12 at the time of the malpractice, the filing deadline is 7 years from the date of the injury under Oklahoma medical malpractice tolling rules. For children aged 12 or older, they have until one year after their 18th birthday to file a claim.

Non-Economic Damages Cap: Oklahoma's SB 453 (effective September 1, 2025) caps non-economic damages at $500,000. However, there are limited exceptions for severe physical disfigurement, loss of a limb, and permanent loss of an organ, among other. Economic damages including lifetime care costs are not capped.

This is a brief summary of commonly applied laws in the jurisdiction. There are often different laws that apply to different circumstances. Once you hire TopDog, your attorney will advise you on the applicable laws.
