$550K Oklahoma Earthquake Damage Class Action Settlement

If your home, business, or property in Oklahoma was damaged by earthquakes in recent years, you may be eligible for a cash payment from a $555,000 class action settlement.

The lawsuit claims certain oil and gas companies operated wastewater disposal wells that allegedly contributed to earthquakes across Oklahoma, including a 5.1-magnitude earthquake near Prague, Oklahoma on February 2, 2024. The companies deny wrongdoing but agreed to settle.

Why This Lawsuit Exists?

This case centers on property damage caused by earthquakes.

According to the lawsuit, wastewater disposal wells operated by:

  • Spess Oil Company

  • Circle 9 Resources

  • Culbreath Oil & Gas Co., Inc.

 

may have contributed to earthquakes, foreshocks, and aftershocks across Oklahoma. Property owners say these seismic events caused structural damage to homes, businesses, and other real estate.

No admission of fault was made, but the settlement provides money to help cover documented damages.

Who Qualifies?

You may qualify if:

  • You owned or had an interest in residential or commercial property in Oklahoma

  • The property was affected by earthquakes between January 19, 2019 and the settlement’s effective date

  • The damage is linked to earthquakes occurring in Oklahoma, including the February 2, 2024 Prague earthquake

 

Payments are divided into two geographic zones:

  • Zone A (90% of funds):
    Lincoln, Payne, Logan, Oklahoma, Cleveland, Pottawatomie, Seminole, Okfuskee, and Creek counties

  • Zone B (10% of funds):
    All other Oklahoma counties

How Much Can You Get?

You’ll need to provide:

  • Proof of earthquake-related damage

  • Repair estimates and/or repair bills

  • Evidence linking the damage to Oklahoma earthquakes (including the Feb. 2, 2024 event, if applicable)

 

If you don’t file a claim, you won’t receive any payment.
