Slip & Fall Accident Attorney in Tulsa
A slip and fall accident can turn your life upside down in seconds. At Benedict Law, we fight to make sure you’re not left dealing with the consequences alone.
You deserve more than “just be careful”
Property owners have a legal obligation to keep their premises safe. When they fail, people get hurt. If you’ve been injured in a slip and fall accident in Tulsa, you may be entitled to compensation—but the window to act is limited.
At Benedict Law, we understand how disorienting the aftermath of a slip and fall can be. Medical bills pile up. You may be missing work. And the property owner’s insurance company is already working to minimize your claim.
That’s where we come in.

Frequently asked questions
What qualifies as a slip and fall accident?
A slip and fall accident occurs when someone is injured on another party’s property due to a hazardous condition—such as wet floors, uneven surfaces, poor lighting, or broken stairs—that the owner failed to address.
How long do I have to file a slip and fall lawsuit in Oklahoma?
In Oklahoma, you generally have two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury claim. Acting quickly helps preserve critical evidence, so don’t delay.
What damages can I recover?
You may be eligible to recover medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and future rehabilitation costs, among other damages.
What if I was partially at fault?
Oklahoma follows a modified comparative negligence rule, meaning you may still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault, as long as you were less than 51% responsible.
