A passenger in the front seat of a car driven by her husband arrived at the park with a grandchild. As she stepped out of the car her foot went into a large crevice in the parking lot. Her resulting fall left her with a broken hip. Several surgeries later, the last of which was a hip replacement, the case was settled for upper mid six figures. No one witnessed the fall and the municipality that owns the park fought the claim. The initial offer from insurance was $25,000. CLICK HERE to watch Jeannie’s story below.

Nursing Home Injury Client Review

  Slip and Fall Premises Liability Client Paid $1 Million

An elderly doctor was entering a burger shop in the Big Bear area. There is a landing that you step onto to enter the shop. It is about 8 inches high, and probably 3’ x 4’. You step up from the ground. He was opening the door, when he fell off the landing and fractured his hip, and had some complications. The case settled for the policy limits. This was a very, very difficult liability case, that many attorneys turned down.
