Case Details

Successfully resolved a trip and fall case for a 40-year-old BBQ installer who tripped over a metal bracket while installing a BBQ. Did not fall, but injured his back to the extent where 36 hours later medical tests revealed a portion of his disc broke free and wedged into his spinal cord, rendering him a paraplegic. Defense argued that the plaintiff sustained his injury while lifting a 200 pound BBQ and that the area where he tripped was not dangerous.
