Case Details

The obvious question arises: How can someone be compensated for falling from a tree? While the answer is straightforward, the legal issues are complex. Certain homeowners want to save a buck when performing necessary maintenance on their property - especially when that maintenance involves property that they are renting out and making a profit. Some of these homeowners hire unlicensed workers to avoid the associated cost of hiring a licensed company. When they do so, however, they are deemed to be the employers of the unlicensed workers, responsible for any and all work-related injuries. Accordingly, when our clients were injured performing tree work for which they were provided no training or safety gear, and which clearly required a license, the homeowners were held legally responsible.
