Attorney D. Robin Gouveia recently secured a $240,000 settlement from Specialty Insurance Company for a New Bedford, MA area man who sustained serious injuries during a slip and fall incident. While leaving a commercial establishment, our client slipped and fell on untreated ice. The business did not properly treat the ice nor warn patrons of this hazard. Our client fell down the stairs and suffered a fractured ankle. This injury required extensive medical treatment, including physical and occupational therapies, wound care, and home nursing services. After getting medical care, our client contacted our firm’s office in New Bedford, MA. We began to investigate his case immediately.
Attorney D. Robin Gouveia commented, “Knowing the law in Massachusetts as it relates to slip and fall at a business, we were able to convince the insurer that the property owner was responsible for failing to adequately protect the patron from black ice, left untreated. The fall resulted in serious injuries, and we advocated for our client and obtained a fair settlement to compensate for the suffering endured. We negotiated medical bills and liens to maximize the client’s recovery.”
