Premises Liability Case Values in Texas (2026)

Premises Liability verdicts in Texas show dramatic variance, with a mean of $23.1M pulled sharply above the $2.8M median by a single $65.0M outlier verdict in the Injured Electrician case, suggesting that catastrophic injury cases can break through even in a defense-favorable jurisdiction. The 2024 case cluster reflects ongoing exposure for facility owners and landlords across commercial, hospitality, and construction-adjacent settings, with outcomes ranging from $1.4M to $65.0M depending heavily on injury severity and defendant culpability. Despite Texas's modified comparative fault (51% bar) rule and generally defense-favorable juries, plaintiffs with strong liability narratives and documented catastrophic injuries continue to secure substantial recoveries.
