The Calvert’s Story: Calvert vs. the City of Wewoka

Wewoka, Oklahoma:

When Terry and Debby Calvert’s home in Wewoka, Oklahoma was flooded with raw sewage, they were left dealing with much more than a plumbing problem. The sewer backup caused significant property damage, disrupted their daily lives, and created serious health hazards for their family. Even worse, this was not an isolated event—their home experienced multiple sewer backups over just a few months.

After a thorough investigation, it became clear that the flooding was caused by the City’s failure to properly operate and maintain its municipal sewer system. When a city neglects its sewer infrastructure, homeowners can suffer devastating losses through no fault of their own.

Rather than accepting the damage and the City’s response, Terry and Debby turned to Oklahoma Sewer Lawyers. Attorney Jim Buxton and our legal team investigated the cause of the sewer backups, gathered evidence of the City’s negligence, and fought to hold the municipality accountable.

Through determined advocacy and extensive investigation, we successfully resolved the case and secured a favorable settlement for our clients. While every case is different, it is possible for cities to be held responsible when their negligence causes sewer backups, raw sewage flooding, and property damage. 

If your home or business has experienced a sewer backup in Oklahoma, you may have legal rights under Oklahoma law. Don’t assume the City has the final word. An experienced Oklahoma sewer backup attorney can investigate your claim and help you pursue the compensation you deserve.

At Oklahoma Sewer Lawyers, we are committed to helping families across Oklahoma recover after devastating sewer backups caused by failing municipal infrastructure. We understand the physical, emotional, and financial toll these events take, and we fight to obtain justice for every client we represent.
