What is Landowner Compensation?
Landowner compensation refers to the payment property owners are entitled to when their land is taken or negatively affected by public or private projects. Under Oklahoma property laws, landowners must be compensated fairly, considering both the value of the property taken and any loss in value to the remaining property. Common situations include:
- Eminent Domain: Compensation for land acquired for public use.
- Partial Takings: Payment for portions of property taken that reduce the value of what remains.
- Loss of Access or Utility: Compensation for diminished functionality or access to your property caused by nearby projects.
Our attorneys work to ensure that landowners in Oklahoma City are fairly compensated in every case.

Common Questions About Landowner Compensation
How is fair compensation determined for landowners?
Fair compensation is based on the fair market value of the property taken, as well as any loss in value to the remaining land. Our attorneys ensure your property is thoroughly evaluated and your financial interests protected.
Can I challenge the compensation offered for my property?
Yes, if you believe the offer is too low or does not account for damages to your remaining property, you can challenge it. Our landowner compensation attorneys in Oklahoma City can negotiate on your behalf or represent you in court if necessary.
What are partial takings, and how do they affect compensation?
Partial takings occur when only a portion of your land is acquired, but the remaining property suffers a loss in value. Compensation must account for both the land taken and the diminished value of what remains.
Does landowner compensation cover damages caused by nearby construction?
Yes, if construction impacts the use, access, or value of your property, you may be entitled to compensation. Our attorneys will evaluate your case and help you secure the compensation you deserve.
