$35,000
Private Property - Loose Railing
While visiting a private residence, our client grabbed a railing that gave way, causing her to fall down the steps and suffer arm fractures.
The Outcome:
We negotiated a $35,000 settlement from the homeowner’s insurance policy.
Creative Legal Strategy:
We used a building inspection report to establish the railing violated local safety codes. Our rapid documentation of the scene—including photos and witness statements—left little room for the insurer to contest liability.
