Trip and Fall Case : Premises Liability
Settlement: $
550,000
Our 79 year old client was leaving the movies one evening at the Boynton Beach Trail Centre, when she tripped and fell on a poorly designed area within the parking lot. The fall caused a fractured hip and spinal compression fracture, both of which required surgery to repair. While in rehab at a nursing home she developed a pulmonary embolism due to her inactivity, requiring more hospitalization. The firm retained the services of experts in the fields of both architecture/zoning, as well as rehabilitation.
