Woman with CRPS

Our 50-year-old client was walking through a hotel lobby when she tripped and fell on a table left in the lobby by the defendant event staffing company. As a result of falling, our client suffered a leg injury, which eventually resolved and a crippling arm injury, known as Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS). The defendant argued that our client was responsible for her own injuries and that her injuries were not as she described. We were successful in convincing the Court that she was not responsible for her injuries and established that her injuries were as significant as she described. While the verdict will not resolve our client’s chronic pain in her arm, it does provide some assistance and compensation for the injuries the defendant caused.
