Significant Settlement
Gloria, an 85-year-old with the energy and routine of someone decades younger, visited a Philadelphia art museum to enjoy her day out.
During her visit, she stepped onto a rug hiding a crack in the floor. She fell, fracturing her wrist and requiring surgery.
She came to us determined to hold the museum accountable for its unsafe conditions.
The defense relied on a familiar tactic: painting seniors as sedentary and claiming that injuries like Gloria’s don’t significantly impact their daily lives.
We pushed back against this insulting narrative, showing the jury the truth: Gloria’s strength, her lifestyle, and her resilience were anything but typical.
She had approached her recovery with rigor, completing physical therapy quickly and returning to her active lifestyle.
The jury agreed.
During deliberations, we settled the case for a significant amount.
If you or someone you know has been injured due to a property’s negligence, it’s time to take a stand.
