Case Summary
In a precedent-setting case on behalf of the family of a 43 year old construction worker who fell from a ladder at a job-site, resulting in serious injuries which prevented him from returning to work. After taking pain medication for approximately 2 years, the worker died from the effects of the medication prescribed for his injuries. Despite the passage of time between the accident and his death, we successfully demonstrated the causal connection, resulting in this settlement.
