Kelly A. George grew up intending to remain on his family’s farm in southwestern Oklahoma and follow in his father’s and grandfather’s footsteps.
But when he went away to attend Oklahoma Christian University in the early 1980s because his parents insisted on him obtaining a college degree, the farming economy sharply declined and became much less appealing. So when he received his B.S. degree in American Studies in 1985, George opted for an alternative career path. He decided to become a lawyer instead of a farmer, attending Oklahoma City University Law School and the University of Oklahoma College of Law, receiving his J.D. in 1989.
George has never doubted that decision because he’s found that he enjoys the practice of law as much as he does agriculture and has compiled a solid career as a plaintiff’s lawyer.
After receiving his J.D., he launched his legal career working at an established gene

Wrongful Death
At Burch, George & Germany, P.C., our product liability lawyers take on cases of injury, illness, serious health conditions, and wrongful death associated with the use of a dangerous drug. Many people in Oklahoma have died or suffered serious side effects after being prescribed a medication with dangerous side effects. Their families may not know where to turn. Our law firm stands ready to help you seek justice and hold drug manufacturers accountable for the harm their dangerous drugs have caused.
Traffic Violations
According to the Oklahoma Highway Safety Office, 33,721 people were injured in traffic fatalities in our state in 2013 and 678 were killed. Of the deaths, a fourth were the results of alcohol impaired crashes where the driver had a blood alcohol content of.08 percent or higher. Even more fatal accidents involved a speeding driver.
Robbery
Drug Crimes
Drugs are often recalled only after the FDA has received reports of hundreds or thousands of patients’ injuries or deaths, or after independent research has verified the dangerous side effects of the drug. When a drug has been shown to be defective, through independent research, FDA action, or in some cases the release of manufacturers’ documentation, those responsible can be held liable for the harm the drug has caused.
Assault
Hit and Run
You may also have uninsured motorist/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage. This coverage pays for personal injuries caused by an uninsured motorist, an underinsured motorist or a hit-and-run driver. You are not required to carry this coverage in Oklahoma. Still, insurers are required to offer it with every auto insurance policy.

Property Damage
Liability insurance pays for personal injuries and property damage if you are at fault in a car accident. Therefore, you would seek payment from the other driver’s insurance if he or she caused your crash.

Medical Malpractice
People go to the doctor to get better. Sometimes the opposite happens – medical treatment actually makes their condition worse or even results in death. When a bad medical outcome results from substandard care provided by a doctor, nurse, hospital, urgent care center or other health care provider, it could be the basis of a medical malpractice lawsuit.
As motorcycle riders ourselves, we have an affinity for the Oklahoma Downed Bikers Association. This nonprofit organization provides emotional and financial support to those injured in motorcycle crashes and their families. The Association holds benefit runs and other events throughout the year to raise funds for the families of fallen bikers. Burch, George & Germany is glad to bolster that aid by making monthly donations to the cause. The firm believes that most motorcycle riders are conscientious and law-abiding. They deserve fair and compassionate treatment if they are involved in car crashes. Members of the firm have assisted tornado victims with insurance claims and helped avert a deficiency judgment against a client facing foreclosure. We also volunteer at local churches, schools, food banks and animal shelters. We donate time and give financially to groups such as the American Heart Association, Cancer Research Institute, Children’s Hospital Auxiliary, Lawyers Fighting Hunger, United Way, Salvation Army, Cystic Fibrosis Association, Limbs for Life, Feed the Children, Boys & Girls Clubs, Big Brothers Big Sisters and American Red Cross.
