What is Premises Liability?
Premises liability refers to property owners’ legal responsibility for injuries caused by unsafe conditions on their property. Oklahoma City property owners must ensure their spaces are safe or adequately warn visitors of potential hazards.
When they neglect this duty and hurt someone, they can and should be held accountable.

- Restaurants

How an Attorney Can Help You
Premises liability claims require proving specific details, and that’s where we come in. Our Oklahoma City slip and fall attorneys provide expert legal guidance to level the playing field against powerful insurance companies and negligent property owners.
Our team can help with:

- Negotiating with insurance companies for a fair settlement
- Litigating your case in trial, if necessary
What Needs to Be Proved in Premises Liability Cases?
Unlike car accidents, where, in most cases, the car that hit you is most likely at fault, premises liability cases are more difficult to investigate. When someone is injured on a property, it’s rarely clear who bears the responsibility for that injury.
To prove liability, we must establish that:
- The landowner had a duty to keep their property safe.
- They failed to meet this duty, either by ignoring or failing to fix a hazard.
- This failure directly caused your injuries.
Our Oklahoma City premises liability attorneys and support staff of investigators, case managers, and medical records specialists meticulously investigate every detail of your case to build a compelling and fact-driven claim.
What Damages Can I Receive After a Slip and Fall in Oklahoma City?
Economic Damages
If you’ve been injured on someone else’s property, you may be eligible to recover compensation for various economic losses. Economic losses are hard financial losses that can be measured, such as:
- Current and future medical expenses, including hospital bills, rehabilitation, and ongoing therapy
- Long-term care costs for life-altering injuries
- Lost wages, including past income and future earnings
- Property repair or replacement costs
- Funeral and burial expenses in cases of wrongful death
Non-Economic Damages
Living through a traumatic accident and suffering catastrophic injuries can also lead to emotional and personal harm, allowing you to seek non-economic damages, including:
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of companionship or impact on relationships
- Mental health conditions like PTSD
- Loss of independence or diminished ability to enjoy life
- Disfigurement or permanent physical changes
