Representative Cases

Product Defect

$2,000,000.00 A metal fabricator defectively designed and manufactured a large industrial delivery system of product. The system broke causing a man to fall into a boiling hot tank of the product and as a result he died. We represented the family of the deceased man and worked to make sure that they recovered the future lost income he would have provided had he not lost his life due to the negligence of the metal fabricator.

$400,000.00 A manufacturer of a medical device placed a defective product on the market and sold it to a hospital. During an operation the device broke because of the defect causing severe internal injuries to our client. We represented the woman and helped her recover for the long period of convalescence during which she endured unnecessary pain and suffering due to the defective medical device.


Falls

$600,000.00 A property owner of a truck loading dock knew that a rubber bumper had fallen from the dock. Whenever a truck would back up to the dock the missing bumper created a hole between the dock and the truck bed. Despite this knowledge the property owner left the dangerous condition unrepaired for months until a man unloading his truck stepped through the hole and broke his back. We represented the injured man and his family to make sure that the property owner paid for the past and future lost wages, the medical bills and the effect his broken back would have on his life.

$100,000.00 An employee of a large warehouse retailer, who was built like a linebacker, failed to watch were he was going during his efforts to catch a shoplifter. As he recklessly ran through the store, he crashed into an elderly woman causing her to fall to the floor and aggravate a long standing spinal condition. We helped her recover for the carelessness of the employee and the added pain she was caused because of her fall.


Brain Injury

$600,000 Amusement park operator failed to maintain its bumper boat ride. The water was murky and the propeller guard was defectively designed. Minor child riding on the bumper boat ride fell into the murky water. His t-shirt tangled into the propeller and he was held under water. Rescuers could not see him because of the condition of the water and he suffered a brain injury as a result of the lack of oxygen to his brain.


Wrongful Death

$200,000 The doctor of a mother of three children failed to refer her to a specialist after recognizing the diagnosis of a potentially terminal decease. As a result the mother's life expectancy was reduced to 5 years.
