$1 Million Settlement for Construction Worker Who Fell Off Faulty Ladder

Our client fell while working at a building in the New York Stock Exchange off a ladder that proved to be faulty. On examination of the ladder, it was discovered that not only was the wood very old but the second rung was completely missing. As a consequence of the fall, our client sustained severe injuries including a tear of the medial meniscus of the knee; sprain of the ligament of the knee; right knee joint effusion; lumbar spine damage including central herniation.  Our construction accident attorneys were able to settle the case for $1 million for our client.
