Premises Liability Case Values in Texas (2026)

Texas Premises Liability verdicts in this dataset show extreme variability, with outcomes ranging from $1.4M to $65.0M and a mean of $23.1M that is dramatically skewed by a single high-value electrician injury case, while the median of $2.8M more accurately reflects typical case resolution. Despite Texas being a generally defense-favorable jurisdiction with modified comparative fault rules that bar recovery above 51% plaintiff fault, catastrophic injury cases involving clear landowner negligence — particularly those with commercial facility defendants — continue to produce substantial verdicts. The disparity between the median and mean underscores the outsized influence of severity of injury and defendant identity on case valuation, suggesting that case facts and injury type are stronger valuation drivers than jurisdictional tendencies alone.
