Hope everyone is enjoying Luke Combs again tonight in OKC. Here is a little taste from last night’s finishing number. Luke went rock star at the end taking out the drum set. 😂 Fun concert if you like country music!

Finished a 46 page brief yesterday and got rewarded with a date night with my wife to watch the one and only Luke Combs. Work hard to play hard!

Know your worth as a lawyer and as a client. I see so many lawyers fail to evolve with the times and practice “ordinary law”. When you practice “ordinary” your results will be ordinary. At McIntyre Law we strive to be different. We want to be extraordinary. I want to be extraordinary. With that in mind we use cutting edge techniques that are constantly evolving to what works best in the courtroom. We are trained in using the best technology, visuals and whatever it takes to get the best result for our clients. We recently took a case that another firm had tried to settle before filing a lawsuit. When that other firm couldn’t settle the case they rejected the client. The client came to us. We filed the suit and after hard and creative work we discovered the defendant had not been telling the truth. In the end, the defendant’s insurance company offered their policy limits leaving a very happy client. Remember, ordinary lawyers get ordinary results. Extraordinary lawyers get extraordinary results.

A violinist played for 45 minutes in the New York subway. A handful of people stopped, a couple clapped, and the violinist raised about $30 in tips.

No one knew this, but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the best musicians in the world. In that subway, Joshua played one of the most intricate pieces ever written with a violin worth 3.5 million dollars.

Two days before he played in the subway, Joshua Bell sold out a Boston theatre, and the seats averaged about $100.

The experiment proved that the extraordinary in an ordinary environment does not shine and is so often overlooked and undervalued.

There are brilliantly talented people everywhere who aren’t receiving the recognition and reward they deserve. But once they arm themselves with value and confidence and remove themselves from an environment that isn’t serving them, they thrive and grow.

Your gut is telling you something. Listen to it if it’s telling you where you are isn’t enough!

Go where you are appreciated and valued.

Know Your Worth.

Everyone ready for the World Cup game tomorrow? Go USA! Win and advance. Lose and go home. USA 🇺🇸

11/24/2022

Happy thanksgiving. We have lots to be thankful for and are truly blessed. For me, being a personal injury lawyer where I see so many people suffering makes me feel doubly blessed. I see and help so many people who have lost loved ones or are badly injured. Cherish your health and loved ones this holiday season.

For fun, my beautiful wife just snapped a picture of me after my third trip back through the food line.

Oklahoma is often portrayed as being a flat prairie. That’s not the case especially in the eastern part of the state. Unfortunately, we see way too many Oklahomans injured on dirt backroads due to the negligence of another. Remember, stay on your side of the road, slow down if you can’t see and take your time. If the worst happens and you need a lawyer to go to battle against big insurance, don’t hesitate to call or message me for help.

In the mountains this morning with my little man (11 year old), father and family members for our annual hunting excursion. I’ve been doing this for the majority of my almost 47 years of life. My father claims he has been doing this for over 70 years as we are still on the land he tries to convince us he walked barefooted as a kid 😂.

So happy to get to share this with Skyler and teach the next generation responsible land and animal conservation. Best part is we are about to hike back to the cabin for breakfast and a little worship.

Lawyers can occasionally be found out in the wild without a suit and tie. I am a 3rd generation Oklahoman who is blessed to get to spend a weekend with a 4th generation Thurman admiring God’s beauty in nature this cold Saturday morning. If your near Cloudy Oklahoma (think SE Oklahoma area) and think you can find us, stop by and say hi and grab a cup of coffee.

11/18/2022

What an incredible event. So blessed to be able to give back to our community.

11/15/2022

Enjoyable week in Scottsdale. Lots of continuing personal injury education combined with some golf to end the trip. Ready to get back to Oklahoma to the family.

11/15/2022

Be careful out there.

At McIntyre Law we are real animal lovers. My three dogs pictured are Rumble (7 year old Yorkie and yes think of the OKC Thunder), Dallas aka Dally (4.5 year old Boston Terrier who, if you zoom super close, has a small snake in his collar) and last but not least Ellie Mae (2 year old spoiled rotten Frenchie in the tutu). One of the great things about dogs is no matter how good or bad your day is they are always happy to see you when you walk through the door. Take care of your pets and love them as much as they love you.

Happy Football Saturday!!!!!!

Very proud of the work our team has done on cases in the last month. It is so rewarding to see a favorable resolution for families who have suffered so much. The best part is getting to know our clients and most importantly providing a semblance of justice that will hopefully assist in the healing process.

As a humble brag I can’t talk enough about our team. From the late hours to the cutting edge trial techniques, I feel prepared in every hearing, deposition and trial. I’m in awe of the background work we do as a firm on defendants and corporations and the ability to find the proverbial needle in the haystack that can change the outcome and or enhance the value of a case. If you need legal advise we are always a phone call away.

Who said being a lawyer isn’t filled with daily danger. Almost stepped on this harmless snake coming out of the office for lunch. Needless to say I finally improved on my 1 inch old man vertical leap. Once I gathered myself I saw he was harmless and let him or her go on their way!

So, we made another hopefully humorous “lawyer commercial” using video from my little guy’s fall baseball season. Hope you enjoy and remember if you or a loved one has been hurt due to the negligence of another call me at McIntyre Law, P.C.! (405) 917-5200!

PS. Listen to the video with sound on and me and my family can assure you no children were hurt in the making of this video!

Leave it to 2020 to bring an ice storm in October. Stay safe Oklahoma. It’s getting slick out there.

10/26/2020

DON’T BE FOOLED BY AN ADJUSTER OR LAWYER CLAIMING YOU DON’T HAVE A CAR WRECK CASE DURING AN ICE STORM! ITS FAKE NEWS!

Guess what central and western Oklahoma? Its sleeting and icing. I can hear the pings of ice against my window. As this early season storm hits, I hope everyone stays safe. However, I know there are going to be some car crashes and that motorists will be hurt. I also know that insurance companies will ramp up their fake news campaign by refusing to pay hurt motorists’ damages for crashes that occur during an ice storm. They will claim that the ice caused the crash, and it was unavoidable. This is fake news!

If the roads are slick the law on negligence does not change. The person who runs the stop sign, who fails to stop at the red light or who loses control and causes a crash is still at fault. So, what is negligence? Negligence is simply not behaving like a reasonably careful person would under similar conditions. In the case of a stop sign, a reasonably safe driver will stop and not proceed through until it is safe to do so. This driving rule does not change because ice is on the road. You still must stop. If you slide through the stop sign you are still at fault.

So why am I even writing this? I have seen throughout the years insurance companies tell injured Oklahomans that they are not going to pay for their automobile or their injuries because ice was on the roadway. They will try to get you to settle for pennies on the dollar and/or deny your claim in full hoping you will not find an experienced personal injury attorney.

So how do you overcome the unavoidable collision defense? Oklahoma law is dirt simple. If a defendant is going to claim the collision was unavoidable because of slippery conditions they MUST show that the collision was unforeseeable. That means that no one could have foreseen that the roads would be slick. The Oklahoma Supreme Court says that the unavoidable collision defense “should be restricted to those instances where the evidence indicates the occurrence was caused by unforeseen circumstances or conditions…it depends on an introduction of evidence showing some factor over which the parties had no control, or could not, except by exceptional foresight, have predicted.” What the Oklahoma law is saying is that ice and snow are not a real unavoidable accident defense to your claim. Everyone has access to the weather channel. Everyone has access to radio. We have our own eyes and our own common sense to see if it’s snowing, icing, or sleeting. Every meteorologist will tell you to stay at home during these times as the roadways can be treacherous. Therefore, its common sense that a wreck on ice is foreseeable and the driver has control of whether he or she can safely be on the road. So, all you have to show to overcome this defense is the negligent driver knew or should have known that the roadways were slick. If you can demonstrate that you will likely win.

So, if an adjuster or lawyer tells you that everyone is responsible for their own damages in a crash on ice then ignore them. Hire a qualified attorney whose practice focuses on personal injury. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact me on my cell phone or at McIntyre Law, P.C.!

Jury Verdict Leads to $4.25M Award to Crash Victim in Case that Supports Elder Rights

For about 12 years I've taken a special interest in trucking cases. A couple of years ago we had the opportunity represent a family in this tragic case that resulted in one of the largest truck collision verdicts Tulsa has had. One of the interesting facts about the case is that the Defendant denied being at fault. We were able to show not only that they were at fault but this crash could have been prevented had they followed simple Federal Motor Carrier Regulations.

McIntyre Law Obtains $15 Million for Fatal Oklahoma City Dog Bite Case

This is one of several cases that has impacted me and makes me proud to be a personal injury attorney. It wasn't about the money. Mr. Brown's family wanted to make sure that this didn't happen to anyone again & hopefully this verdict will go a long ways in preventing future dog bites.

An Oklahoma court awarded the family of Edgar Brown a $15 million judgment after Edgar was brutally attacked and killed by five pit bull mixes.
