What Is Eminent Domain Law In Oklahoma?
In Oklahoma, state, federal, and even some private groups are entitled to seize private land for a public use. This right is known as eminent domain. When the entity takes the land, the process is referred to as condemnation. Hence, the entity taking the land is called the “condemnor.”
There’s nothing that can prepare a landowner for the moment of receiving an eminent domain notice. Having land taken away by the government can be shocking, unsettling, and stressful. But it’s important to take swift action. Here’s what a landowner can do to get the best possible outcome of their situation:
Hire an eminent domain attorney
An eminent domain attorney in Oklahoma has the knowledge and expertise to ensure justice is served. Your attorney will be there to advise and fight for your rights—so it’s essential to hire an attorney right away.
Learn about your landowner rights
Though you may feel completely powerless, you have landowner rights during the condemnation process. Your lawyer will educate you about those rights so you can use them to your advantage.
Let your lawyer negotiate
Your lawyer is your best chance at receiving full compensation for your land. Allow them to negotiate with your condemnor on your behalf.
