Case Details
Our client slipped and fell while walking up an airline ramp at a local airport. The ramp had been wet from recent rain, causing our client to lose his balance and tear his hamstring. Subsequently, during the hamstring repair procedure, the operating surgeon botched the surgery, causing nerve damage to our client’s leg. This nerve damage led to leg pain, numbness, loss of sensation, and even gait instability, making him a future fall risk. A suit was filed against the airline, ramp manufacturer and operating surgeon for their respective liability. Ultimately, after significant litigation, these three entities agreed to a combined $1.6 million settlement for our client’s injuries, wage loss, and pain and suffering.
