Success Stories

Construction Site Fall

I represented a construction worker who fell down an unmarked and unguarded elevator shaft. The general contractor denied fault and testified that he warned my client about the elevator shaft and placed yellow caution tape in front of the doorway.

After I subpoenaed two witnesses who testified that the contractor did not warn my client and that the caution tape was placed in front of the door after the accident, my client received a $992,000 settlement.

Workplace Sexual Harassment

My client, a female police officer, was constantly sexually harassed by two of her supervisors. After she made it clear she was not interested in any type of relationship with her supervisor, they retaliated against her and terminated her employment.

I settled my client's case for $380,000.

Rotted Deck Fall

My client fell through a rotted wooden deck in the home he was renting. He suffered several broken bones that required two surgeries. Throughout the case, the landlord claimed that he did not have notice of the dangerous condition and accused my client of knowing about the rotted deck but neglecting to notify him.

Through discovery and investigation, I was able to prove the landlord had been given notice of the deteriorated deck. I settled the case during mediation for $1,525.000, which included a $1 million payment from the insurance company, and $525,000 from the Landlord Defendants.

Workplace Sexual Harassment

I represented a client whose coworker made sexual comments to her and even invited her out to his car. When she refused, he became upset and tried to undermine her performance. When she complained to Human Resources, they took sides with the harasser and refused to investigate or take any corrective action. She was eventually forced to quit because the tension in the office was more than she could tolerate.

I conducted several depositions, and just before trial, the defense firm agreed to a settlement of $525,000.
