Brain Injury; Defective Product; Minor Child
Another attorney requested the assistance of our Firm in representing the parents of a child who had sustained a brain injury at a park when the defective flagpole on which she was swinging suddenly broke throwing her onto nearby rocks. After co-counsel had filed suit, the Firm conducted the investigation, retained an expert metallurgist, and took the depositions of the relevant parties. The park owner's insurance carrier agreed at mediation to pay the settlement demand (insisting on confidentiality as to the amount).
