Oftentimes these accidents are investigated by law enforcement and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and we need to make immediate contact with any investigative agency to collect photographs, witness statements, and any findings on the cause of the accident.A probate action must be filed appointing a personal representative to initiate the case against the party at fault.

We also recommend that all our estate planning clients execute a durable power of attorney. A durable power of attorney allows you to appoint a family member to make legal decisions on your behalf if you become unable to do so in the future. The typical scenario entails elderly family members who become unable to make legal decisions for themselves as a result of Alzheimer's/dementia or some other disease affecting mental functioning.

John is an honest, friendly, and an incredibly down to earth guy. He’s honest and up front with you from the get go. I was involved in a work accident and John took excellent care of me. We had many issues dealing with the insurance adjuster of my employer who tried to deny everything. John refused to let them bully or take advantage of me. He fought for me from the beginning and got me the best possible settlement. I’m happy to have had John in my corner. I HIGHLY recommend him and his firm.

John Melot and his team have helped me through two motor vehicle accidents. He’s great at communicating with his clients and I always felt in the loop about the progress on my cases. I highly suggest you reach out to him if you’ve been hit by a careless driver, he will make sure you’re well taken care of.

Professional, Efficient, Personable and Trustworthy. Our experience with John Melot was excellent! He communicated with us the entire time and personally answered every question we had. He gave my daughter’s case all the time and attention it needed to have a very successful outcome. We were truly grateful to have John fighting for her.

John Melot is an excellent lawyer. We were in a car accident last year. Our new car totalled and in need of medical treatment, we were left unsure of what we could do financially. A friend recommended John and we went see if he could help. He was very professional and knowledgable about our situation. He told us all of our options and possible obstacles. He and his staff kept in touch with us and were always available when we had questions or concerns. In the end we were rewarded with the help and funds that we needed. We are forever grateful, without his help we would have been left with a financial

Mr. Melot did an outstanding review with my husband's work injury. My husband's employer was being rather "not so nice", then we heard about John. He handled everything effectively and as quickly as possible. He got us everything we could get. We got a really good and fair settlement and the best doctors and treatment. John is a very personable guy, yet he was very aggressive with the case. He did a more than great job, and we recommend him to anyone who needs a fantastic workers' comp attorney.

John was very professional the entire time I worked with him. He helped me get all I thought I deserved for my care, comp. and settlement. I never had to do anything, he took over my case and did all the work and running around. He will definitely go the extra mile to help you. In my opinion, John is the best work comp attorney in Oklahoma.
