I recently sat first chair as my colleagues and I tried a construction case to verdict in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas. Our client, a married father of young children, was catastrophically injured while he was on a construction job. He went from being an able-bodied business owner to a person who is permanently disabled and incapacitated, and who requires around-the-clock home care.
Our client’s injury was a tragedy. We knew we had a good case for liability and damages. We had strong arguments that the defendants in the case should have had protections in place to prevent people from falling victim to the dangerous condition that resulted in our client’s injuries. We further argued that the defendants were negligent for failing to provide a safe workplace or warn our client about this dangerous condition.
