Recent Cases Illustrate Our Ability to Handle Sports- and Playground-Related Accidents and Injuries.

  • Our client's young child was struck by the bat of a softball player who was practicing his swing while "on deck". At first, this case looked like a simple accident. Our investigation revealed that the area allotted for batting practice was too small and was consequently unsafe. Our representation led to 1) a high-value settlement for our client's family and 2) the construction of a batting cage, to ensure future players' safety.
  • Our client's child was a promising athlete and faced the strong possibility of a college sports scholarship. She tore her knee internally while jumping hurdles. We claimed that the hurdles had been set up in unsafe place, i.e. on a track that was not level. Our representation resulted in a high-value settlement.
