$195K Achieved Full Policy Settlement for Slip & Fall Accident
Our client suffered injuries as a result of a slip and fall on the stairs in in Los Angeles, California. The stairs were being painted by the defendant company, which failed to block off the access. As a result, the victim sustained serious injuries. According to California OSHA, the law requires that workers close off access to stairs during repairs, such as painting. This negligence led the victim to contact our experienced Los Angeles slip and fall lawyer.
Therefore, the defendant is liable for failing to place a sign or warning tape on the stairs or alert our client to the potential danger. The accused party claims that one of its employees, whose name is unknown, may have placed the caution tape. However, the defendant never provided this person’s identity or contact information.
Related Negligence with Prior Injury on the Same Premises
Oddly enough, the property was owned by a family that was under a court order, according to the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office. Records indicate that the owners of the property where the accident occurred allowed a neighborhood gang to use the premises for illegal activities. As a direct result of the owner’s negligence, the plaintiff suffered injuries. Our client was the victim of an assault by the same gang members on the same property several years earlier. Consequently, the plaintiff suffered injuries, including a shoulder injury, that lasted until the day of their slip and fall.
The owners selected the defendant to manage the property according to a court order. Although the order included specific requirements for an on-site manager, the installation of high-definition cameras, and proper maintenance of the property, the defendant failed to comply with any of these requirements. The defendant’s failure to implement these safety measures contributed to the plaintiff’s fall and injuries. In the end, an Adamson Ahdoot slip and fall Los Angeles lawyer secured a $195K settlement for the victim.
