Verbal Contract Property Dispute

Summary

Verbal contracts can be legally binding but are harder to enforce, especially for real estate transactions which generally require written documentation. In Oklahoma, if no deed has been transferred and the other party continues to pay property taxes, you likely do not legally own the property. Consulting a local attorney specializing in real estate law is crucial for a detailed analysis and to explore your legal options. Contact the Oklahoma Bar Association for a referral to a local attorney.
