Our firm represented a hotel guest who suffered a serious ankle injury after tripping over an unsafe concrete elevation outside a lodging facility. The incident occurred after sunset, when exterior lighting near the room entrance was not functioning, leaving the walking surface dangerously dark.
The client sustained a displaced ankle fracture with tendon and nerve involvement, ultimately requiring surgery, ligament repair, and extensive rehabilitation. Despite treatment, they continued to experience chronic pain, instability, and reduced mobility that significantly affected her daily life and physical activities.
After the case was filed in state court, it was removed to federal court by the defense. During litigation, we conducted multiple depositions and a site inspection, which allowed us to establish that the property operator had actual notice of recurring lighting failures in the area but failed to correct the condition.
Following discovery, the case resolved for $350,000, providing fair compensation for our client’s injuries and long-term limitations.
