Freedom Energy Oklahoma Earthquake Settlement
Court case: Salzman, et al. v. Freedom Energy, Montclair, New Dominion, and H&P
If you owned property in Oklahoma and had earthquake damage between January 19, 2019 and the settlement's effective date, you can file a claim for a share of a $2.6 million settlement fund. You need to submit documented repair costs, and the deadline is July 28, 2026.
All persons, municipalities, county governments and tribal governments who owned or had an interest in real property within Oklahoma between January 19, 2019 and the settlement effective date, and who suffered damages from earthquakes, foreshocks and aftershocks within Oklahoma state boundaries. Payout: $2.6 million total fund distributed proportionally based on documented repair damages. Zone A (Lincoln, Payne, Logan, Oklahoma, Cleveland, Pottawatomie, Seminole, Okfuskee, Creek counties) receives 90% of net fund; Zone B (all other Oklahoma counties) receives 10% of net fund. Individual awards vary based on repair estimates and bills submitted; if claims exceed available funds in a zone, payments are pro-rated. Proof of purchase is required to file. Claim deadline: July 28, 2026.

Important dates
How hard is this claim to file?
Watch out for
- The $2.6 million fund is divided by zone before anyone gets paid. Zone A counties get 90% of the net fund; Zone B counties share the remaining 10%.
- If claims in your zone add up to more than the zone's share, everyone in that zone gets paid proportionally less than their documented damages.
- Municipalities, county governments, and tribal governments are also eligible claimants, not just individual property owners.
- The deadline is July 28, 2026. Double-check the official settlement effective date at https://www.oklahomaearthquakeslawsuits2024.com before you file.
We prepare — you file on the official site yourself. This is not legal advice and is not an eligibility decision; the administrator and court decide.
