A rooftop construction worker was doing his job when he took a terrifying fall from a ladder that was wet and unsafe for use. There was nothing to catch him, so the fall ended up being severe. He shattered his feet, ankles, hands, and spine, injuries that would completely upend his life and his ability to work.
A wet, unstable ladder has no place on a construction site, and it was the company’s responsibility to make sure the equipment their workers relied on was safe to use. We fought relentlessly on our client’s behalf, refusing to let the company avoid accountability for their negligence and their failure to provide safe working conditions. Every step of the way, we pushed to make sure the true severity of his injuries and the company’s role in causing them.
That hard work paid off. We secured a settlement of $3,500,000, ensuring our client received the full compensation and justice he deserved after an accident that left him with permanent, life-altering injuries.
