Proof Required?
If you live in Oklahoma and experienced property damage or other losses from earthquakes linked to oil and gas company operations, you may be entitled to compensation from a $2.6 million class action settlement. This lawsuit alleged that wastewater injection and other oil and gas industry activities triggered or contributed to increased seismic activity across the state. Oklahoma has experienced a dramatic rise in earthquake frequency over the past decade, and many residents and scientists have connected this activity to underground wastewater disposal practices used by energy companies. This settlement provides a fund to compensate affected Oklahomans who suffered real losses as a result. The claim deadline is July 28, 2026, so there's still time to see if you qualify and get your claim submitted. Class Action Buddy can help walk you through the process quickly and easily.
