Every motorist owes a duty of care to other road users to act with care and avoid causing harm to others. When drunk drivers cause an accident, they may be subject to criminal prosecution, however, they may also be held financially responsible for the damage caused to victims of the accident. If you or a relative have been injured in a drunk driving accident, you may be entitled to financial compensation for your damages and the Tulsa drunk driving accident attorneys at the Gorospe Law Group can help you. For more information about drunk driving accidents and your right to compensation, call us at (918) 582-7775.
Meet Attorney Anthony Gorospe
Anthony Gorospe is a dedicated Tulsa personal injury lawyer and the founder of Gorospe Law Group. With over 20 years of legal experience, he has built a reputation for fiercely advocating for individuals who have been injured due to negligence.
He began his legal career as an Assistant District Attorney in Tulsa County, where he honed his skills in the courtroom. He later transitioned to a large defense firm, representing insurance companies in personal injury claims. However, after witnessing firsthand how insurers work to minimize or deny claims, Anthony made a pivotal decision—to fight for the injured rather than defend corporate interests.
Now, as a Tulsa personal injury lawyer, Anthony leverages his deep knowledge of insurance defense strategies to level the playing field for his clients. He understands the emotional and financial toll that serious injuries can bring and is committed to securing the compensation his clients need to rebuild their lives.
At Gorospe Law Group, Anthony and his team provide comprehensive support beyond legal representation. They help coordinate medical care, arrange vehicle repairs or replacements, and even provide transportation for clients in need. The firm operates on a contingency fee basis—meaning clients pay nothing upfront, and all legal fees and case-related costs are covered until a successful resolution is achieved.
Whether handling car accidents, truck accidents, wrongful death claims, or other personal injury matters, Anthony Gorospe is a relentless advocate, ensuring that insurance companies are held accountable and that his clients receive the justice they deserve.

What Constitutes Drunk Driving in Oklahoma?
Oklahoma has several laws addressing drug and alcohol-related driving. These laws establish the standards by which a driver’s conduct is evaluated in personal injury claims. Key factors considered include the person’s blood concentration levels of drugs or alcohol exceeding legal limits. If a person voluntarily consumes alcohol to the extent that their ability to drive is impaired, endangering public health and safety, or if they violated Oklahoma’s drunk driving laws, they can be held liable for any injuries caused in a resulting accident.
How Is Fault Determined in a Tulsa Drunk Driving Accident?
You were hurt in an accident, and a drunk driver caused that incident to occur. It seems straightforward. Yet, it is up to the victim of any accident to prove that the other party was negligent in the case if they hope to recover damages. The evidence from the scene will help to do this, as will other details that your attorney will seek, such as:
- Failed sobriety tests in the field, as well as medical reports
- Eyewitness information
- Data from police on what they determined at the time of the arrest
- Video footage that shows the driver’s intoxication
- Your testimony
To prove negligence in any case, you must demonstrate that the other party owed you a duty of care. If they got behind the wheel of a car, they were establishing that duty. It is then necessary to demonstrate that they violated that duty of care. If they were intoxicated beyond the legal limit according to Oklahoma law, then that is a documented indication of a violation of duty of care.
You then must show that their intoxication directly caused the accident to occur. If they were weaving in and out of traffic, for example, that could help prove this. Finally, you must show that you suffered injuries and other losses as a result of the accident. With the help of your Tulsa drunk driving accident attorney, it will be possible to do this in most situations.
Why You Need a Drunk Driving Accident Attorney
A person who fails to adhere to the standard of care by drunk driving can be held liable on the basis of negligence or negligence per se. To succeed on a claim for personal injuries after a drunk driving accident based on negligence, you must have evidence to prove:
- The driver owed you a duty of care
- The driver breached their duty of care
- The driver’s breach of duty caused your injury
- The driver’s breach was the proximate cause of your injury
- You suffered an actual injury
A drunk driving accident lawyer in Tulsa can help you gather and preserve the evidence you need to prove your claim. An experienced Tulsa drunk driving accident attorney understands the challenges of dealing with insurance companies and can help you negotiate a fair settlement for your damages. The team at the Gorospe Law Group are experienced litigators, and we are not afraid to take your case to court if necessary.
How Long Do I Have to File a Drunk Driving Accident Case in Oklahoma?
The statute of limitations for filing a personal injury-related legal claim in a court of law is two years. This falls under Oklahoma Statute §12-95. It is important to know that this is not the timeline to file a claim with the insurance company, but rather to file a lawsuit in a court of law for the incident. If you wait beyond this timeframe, you lose the right to pursue legal action against that party simply because the court will not hear your case. Do not wait to contact a Tulsa drunk driving accident lawyer to fight for you in these situations.

“Anthony was exceptional in handling my case. I couldn’t be happier with my experience here. My case was a smaller one because I wasn’t extremely injured in my car wreck, but I still missed a lot of work, had a long healing process with physical therapy and the chiropractor as well as all the medical bills that come with it. I feel He put the exact same amount of time and effort into my case as he would any other major case. His team was excellent when it came to advisement, and availability. He refused to settle for the peanuts my insurance company was offering me. Anthony went above and beyond.”
-Raina C.
