$290,000 Trip and Fall Accident Settlement in Lodi, California

CASE RESULT - CURTIS
Our client was walking from her apartment to her car when she tripped upon a section of walkway that was made of concrete pavers.  Over time, the pavers had changed elevation creating a tripping hazard.  When she fell, she fractured her skull and suffered orthopedic injuries.  Initially, the apartment complex employees laughed the incident off, and joked that our client won’t be taking that path anymore.  However, we hired an engineering expert to determine that the pavers were improperly installed, and the defect was present for many months before the fall, creating a tripping hazard.  We introduced the client to doctors who specialize in head trauma to give her world class care for her serious injuries.  Our client made a full recovery.  When presented with this evidence, the apartment complex settled the matter for $290,000 before a lawsuit was even filed.
