Compensation for Injuries Suffered on Dangerous Property
Owners of buildings and land are generally responsible for keeping their property in a reasonably safe condition, but at the same time, members of the public are just as responsible for watching out for their own safety. The Oklahoma law of premises liability covers disputes between plaintiffs and defendants over just where one responsibility ends and the other begins.
If you or a member of your family was seriously hurt in a slip and fall accident or structural collapse, the personal injury lawyers of Wilburn & Masterson can advise you about your right to damages and help you pursue your claims. Contact us in Tulsa to discuss your premises liability issues.

Premises liability law provides that the property owner needs to warn people of hidden dangers, but has no obligation to warn of "open and obvious" conditions. Our attorneys can investigate the accident scene and interview witnesses to see whether the risk that you encountered was something that you should have seen with ordinary care, or whether instead you should have been protected by a sign, caution tape, orange cones or perhaps better yet, proper maintenance.
What might be an open and obvious hazard in broad daylight might be a hidden danger at night. What might be perfectly safe for healthy adults might be dangerous for children or seniors. At Wilburn & Masterson, our familiarity with the ways small details of fact have a big impact on legal rights can make a significant difference to the outcome of your case.
