What Is Premises Liability?
Under state premises laws, property owners have the duty to ensure their premises are reasonably safe for lawful visitors. If you or a loved one was injured on another party’s property, you may have the right to file a personal injury lawsuit against the property owner to recover financial damages. You may be able to recover compensation for medical bills, emotional trauma, lost earnings, future medical treatment, and possibly more.
Common Examples of Premises Liability Claims
A premises liability case could arise from any accident on someone else’s property due to their negligence. As such, it covers a vast range of incidents, including:
- Dog bite injuries
- Slip and fall accidents

Understanding the Duty of Care in a Premises Liability Claim
When it comes to premises liability law in Oklahoma, victims must prove that the property owner owed them a duty of care. Whether or not this duty of care was owed is dependent on the victim’s status.
Generally, a duty of care is owed to invitees though it may also be owed to a licensee. If the individual were not expressly invited and had no lawful right to be on the property, that person would likely be a trespasser. Property owners do not owe trespassers a duty of care unless the person was a child and something on the property (an attractive nuisance) drew them to it.
These are some other key elements involved in premises liability claims:
- The property owner was responsible for maintaining the property
- The property owner knew or should have reasonably known about the dangerous conditions and failed to address them or warn others of the risks
- You were injured
- The property’s negligent actions directly led to your injuries
