Premises Liability Case Values in Texas (2026)

Texas Premises Liability verdicts in this dataset show a striking disparity between the median ($2.8M) and mean ($23.1M) outcome, driven primarily by the outlier $65M verdict in the Injured Electrician case, suggesting that catastrophic injury cases can produce exceptional results even in a defense-favorable jurisdiction. The three 2024 cases span a wide range from $1.4M to $65M, indicating that severity of injury, identity of the defendant, and specific liability facts play a dominant role in outcome variation. Despite Texas's modified comparative fault (51% bar) rule and generally defense-favorable jury pools, plaintiffs with clear liability facts and severe injuries continue to secure significant recoveries, particularly in commercial and industrial premises contexts.
