Mari JuarezWhen my colleague got rear-ended on his way to work, we thought that his lingering neck pain would be the most worrisome factor. Soon enough, his medical bills were piling up, and I knew I couldn’t help him financially, so I asked my team to help find him a personal injury lawyer.
Fortunately, the team came through, and my coworker ended up with the best settlement possible, so he could focus on recovering from his injuries and seeing a spine specialist.
Getting injured sucks, and more so if it’s not your doing. So, if you think you’re wrongly hurt, whether it be in the hands of other people, in the workplace, etc., keep on reading to learn more about my team’s top personal injury lawyers!

1. Austin Pieratt Esq – AP Injury Lawyers
Areas of practice: Personal injury, auto accidents, premises liability, wrongful death, workers’ compensation
Location: 512 NW 12th St.
Contact: +1 405-336-3000
Business hours: Open 24 hours
Austin Pieratt, Esq., comes highly recommended for his accessibility. He and his firm offer 24/7 availability for phone consultations, preventing clients from having to deal with “underlings” or secretaries during a crisis.
Past clients also praise his prompt response times, which helped keep them at ease during the emotionally stressful times. He is also known for giving clear explanations of complex personal matters, so clients feel more in control of their situation.
We also appreciate how he treats every client as an individual. He avoids the “one-size-fits-all” approach and provides support and reassurance. Furthermore, he doesn’t leave out details regarding his legal strategies.
While Pieratt has only 10+ years of experience, his leadership skills are clearly well-established. Clients have noted that his natural negotiation style helped them secure settlements that exceeded their expectations.
It’s also worth noting that he has built a positive reputation for his expertise in multiple areas, such as dog bites, auto accidents, and wrongful deaths.
We’re just slightly concerned about his firm’s lack of a BBB accreditation. While he has a great local reputation, some potential clients see that badge as a necessary mark of legitimacy.
Went for the big prize!
“Nice place. Easy process. Good outcome to say the least. I’m just glad it’s over. They did an outstanding job and went for the big prize! I’m proud of them for that! Bless their hearts for the work they do. We can’t win without them. Thanks, guys. God bless you both, Austin and Tripp.”

2. Jack Stipe, Esq. – Law Offices of Stipe & Belote
Areas of practice: Auto accidents, pedestrian accidents, boating accidents, oil field injuries, workers’ compensation
Location: 9400 Broadway Ext Suite 420
Contact: +1 405-254-7796
Business hours: Open 24 hours
Jack Stipe, Esq., is a standout prospect due to his extensive range of personal injury expertise. He handles everything from standard auto accidents to complex cases involving trucks, cars, bicycles, motorcycles, and even boating incidents on Oklahoma’s lakes.
Stipe has an excellent track record in securing medical assistance for injured workers. We spoke with past clients who noted that he advocated fiercely for their claims.
His 25+ years of experience are on full display during these negotiations. Clients described his tactics as “unrelenting,” which typically leads to settlements far higher than the initial lowball offers.
We were also pleased with how reachable Stipe and his team are via phone and email. He’s also praised for giving clients personal attention, helping them calm their nerves and stay informed through his clear and prompt communication.
Now, the only thing to keep in mind is the firm’s structure. Because Stipe leads a busy operation, clients will likely spend a significant amount of time working with his support staff rather than the man himself.
Exceptionally thorough and professional
“The services provided by The Law Office of Stipe & Belote were exceptionally thorough and professional. The staff did a great job keeping me informed throughout the process via phone communications and emails.
My case was settled in a timely manner, and the result was fair. I will definitely use Stipe & Belote for any future legal advice and representation. Thank you, Jack Stipe and staff!”

They want what’s best for each of their clients
“Jack Stipe and his legal assistant, Taylor Levendusky, have been incredibly supportive in my dad’s workers’ comp journey of 5 years. They have always answered our calls, texts, or emails in a very timely manner and have advocated strongly for his quality of life.
I am confident that they want what’s best for each of their clients. Every step was taken to ensure that my dad received excellent medical care and treatment. We are forever grateful to them both.”

3. Cameron Torres – Cain Law
Areas of practice: Truck wrecks, car accidents, pedestrian accidents, product liability, workers’ compensation
Location: 9612 S Pennsylvania Ave.
Contact: +1 405-591-4733
Business hours: Open 24 hours
Cameron Torres and Cain Law caught our attention with their track record of recovering over $250 million for their clients.
We interviewed their previous clients who noted that they won settlements that often exceeded expectations thanks to Torres’s negotiation skills. He’s known for seeking peaceful agreements first but becoming aggressive when the situation demands it.
On the flip side, Torres is remarkably reassuring when speaking with his clients. Our interviewees added that he’s always available for follow-up questions and clarifications, which he patiently obliges with.
Torres also became one of our top picks because of his strong academic prowess. He graduated cum laude with a Bachelor’s in Criminal Justice and received the Pro Bono Service Award upon earning his Juris Doctor.
We also believe that his internship at a public defender’s office gave him a unique edge in client advocacy and courtroom preparation.
Although Cain Law is a well-established firm, Torres himself has slightly less experience in the field, and feedback on his solo cases is still somewhat limited.
Significantly surpassed my expectations
“Cam and Michael provided invaluable assistance throughout the entirety of my case. They consistently reached out via phone or text to check in with me and facilitated my connection with the necessary medical professionals.
Without their guidance, I am confident that my current state of recovery would not have been possible.
I am deeply grateful for their exceptional support, as they have significantly surpassed my expectations and provided me with far more assistance than I could have achieved independently.
I wholeheartedly recommend Cain Law to anyone who has been involved in a car accident and requires the utmost expertise in handling such situations. Cain Law is an exceptional law firm that guarantees the best possible outcome.”
– Dawn McMillan, Google Review
Demonstrated remarkable dedication
“I would like to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt appreciation to Lawyer Cameron C. Torres for his outstanding representation of my daughter’s case. As this was my first experience with hiring an attorney, I was uncertain about what to expect.
After researching and contacting various law firms, I had the pleasure of discussing our case with Cameron. Unfortunately, the insurance company involved in our case was dishonest and uncooperative, refusing to return my calls or assist in resolving the claim.
However, Cameron and his team demonstrated remarkable dedication and perseverance, ultimately securing a favorable settlement. I feel extremely fortunate to have had the benefit of their expertise.
Not only did we receive the compensation we were owed, but we also obtained every nickel. My primary objective was to secure coverage for the medical bills and damages to the truck, and Cameron exceeded my expectations. He went above and beyond to ensure that we received the justice we deserved.
I am deeply grateful for the exceptional treatment we received from Cameron and his team. If you require legal assistance, I highly recommend entrusting Cameron and his team with your case.
Additionally, I would like to express my gratitude to the legal assistants Andrea and Adriana. Their exceptional professionalism and meticulous attention to detail were truly impressive.
These remarkable individuals consistently demonstrated a commitment to excellence, and their hard work was greatly appreciated. Thank you for your tireless efforts.”

4. Bryan Garrett PLLC
Areas of practice: Personal injury, ride share accidents, car accidents, truck accidents, slip and fall
Location: 210 Park Ave, Suite 1810
Contact: +1 405-972-6960
Business hours: Open 24 hours
Bryan Garret has earned significant peer recognition over his 25+ years in practice, including inductions into Super Lawyers and the National Trial Lawyers Top 100.
We like how he maintains a highly personalized approach, taking the time to listen to each client’s specific goals. We like how this approach ensures that the client’s best interests are placed first when formulating a legal strategy.
Working with Garret is reportedly hassle-free, as he makes himself available via phone 24/7. He’s also known for communicating complex injury matters in digestible terms.
When he’s not available, however, his team is always ready to provide answers and assurances. This may just be a bit iffy for those who prefer to work with a sole attorney.
Garret is also considered a reliable personal injury lawyer due to the breadth of his practice area.
He’s handled slip-and-fall accidents, car accidents, and truck wrecks, but what caught our attention most was ride-share accidents, where he’s helped Uber and Lyft passengers secure settlements.
Truly had my best interests in mind
“After a traumatic car accident, I’m very grateful for the care and professionalism Bryan Garrett showed me. He was transparent, patient, and truly had my best interests in mind throughout the entire process.
He handled everything efficiently and achieved a strong result for my case. I would absolutely recommend Bryan to anyone needing personal injury representation.”
– Julie Vo, Google Review
Very appreciative of his help
“My jeep was totaled at the end of July in Sulphur, and I reached out to Bryan because I didn’t know what else to do, and on recommendations for my daughter, just from Google recommendations, he was awesome.
The office staff was awesome. We contacted each other by texting and e-mail, with very few phone calls. I am now driving a car that is a newer model than the one I had. I’m very appreciative of his help and guidance.”

5. Carr & Carr Injury Attorneys
Areas of practice: Personal injury, car accidents, truck wrecks, wrongful death, defective products
Location: 1350 SW 89th St.
Contact: +1 405-691-1600
Business hours: Open 24 hours
Patrick E. Carr was a no-brainer candidate for us due to his 50+ years of legal practice. Throughout his tenure, he’s nurtured his firm and has become a natural leader, equal parts assertive and compassionate with his clients.
His previous clients also noted that his extensive courtroom experience gave them an advantage in negotiations with insurance companies. They also shared that they were ready to accept the lowball offer before Carr and his firm helped them secure a larger settlement.
We also chose Carr for his expertise in numerous personal injury matters, including car accidents and defective products. Moreover, he’s lent his expertise on high-impact cases, such as wrongful death, medical malpractice, and catastrophic brain injuries.
His position at his firm also gives him access to numerous resources. For instance, when he’s not available, he can have his team members assist his clients.
At the same time, we could see this as a problem for clients who want to work closely with a single lawyer.
Always respectful
“I was really not sure how things would go with my disability request, and after dragging on for almost four years, I had begun to think that it would not work out in my favor. Carr & Carr had been recommended to me by a friend.
It was amazing how easy they made the process. I received calls at each step along the way to let me know what to expect next and what forms I should expect to receive. They followed up each time to see if I had questions.
They explained things in an easy-to-understand way, and they were always respectful in dealing with me. I honestly thought the process would be more difficult, and I expected to have to deal with many more questions.
What’s amazing is that everything was handled by phone and mail. I never had to travel to any office except for two medical examinations. Carr and Carr really made it easy on my part. Best of all, my disability request was fully approved by the Social Security Administration.
I credit Carr & Carr for doing the work necessary to get the favorable recommendation. I would definitely recommend their law firm to others.”
– Kevin Armstrong, Google Review
Amazing at helping me through the process
“I was in a car accident, and I was five months pregnant. I ended up in the hospital for a whole week. I called Carr & Carr because the other person’s insurance was not returning my calls.
They were amazing at helping me through the whole process, checking in to see how I was doing.
Today, I have a beautiful, healthy baby, and they made sure that I got the settlement that I deserved.”
