| $895,000 eve of
trial settlement for 29 year old construction worker who fractured
back after falling off a roof. |
| |
Plaintiff was working
on the roof of a house without any safety devices when he fell to
the ground. He sustained several compression fractures in his back
and a complex fracture of his wrist, each requiring surgery. Although
the owner of the premises was uninsured, plaintiff’s counsel
was able to show enough of a connection between the property and another
entity to invoke the latter’s insurance coverage (which was
limited to $1,000,000). Amy Rosenbloom negotiated the settlement offer
on the eve of trial (more than seven years after the accident) at
plaintiff’s request to avoid the inevitability of an appeal
and further delay.
