Morici, Longo & Associates successfully obtained a $300,000.00 settlement for a client who suffered serious personal injuries due to hazardous property conditions on church and school grounds in suburban Chicago.
The client, a resident of the area, sustained a shoulder fracture after tripping over a significant height deviation between two adjacent concrete walkway slabs. The defect was allegedly caused by the roots of a nearby tree, which lifted the slabs, creating a clear tripping hazard.
As a result of the fall, the client required a reverse shoulder replacement, a serious and life-altering procedure.
The property owners—both the church and elementary school—were alleged to have known about the unsafe condition and failed to take proper steps to remedy the hazard. This incident underscores the responsibility that property owners have to maintain safe premises for the public, a central focus in premises liability law.
The injured woman was represented by Chicago Premises Liability Attorney Andrew J. Mazzuca of Morici, Longo & Associates, a law firm with a proven track record of results in cases involving unsafe property conditions. This is one of hundreds of successful outcomes Mazzuca has secured for clients injured due to property owner negligence.
