What You Are Entitled To Under the Law
Under Oklahoma law, a dog owner is strictly liable for any bites, attacks, or injuries caused by his or her dog. This means that it is not necessary to prove that the dog owner was negligent. To be eligible for and awarded compensation for injuries a dog bite victim received during an attack, the victim must prove: 1) that he or she was bitten by the dog, 2) there was no provocation for the bite or attack, 3) the victim was lawfully on the premises on which he or she was bitten, and 4) the ‘accused’ is the owner of the dog.
