There are several common causes of fractures, including:
Falls are the second-most common cause for accidental fatal injuries, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Additionally, approximately 10% of falls result in a fracture, according to Current Osteoporosis Reports. When a person falls from several stories or even slips and falls, he or she may break a hip or other bone in the body.
Pedestrians and cyclists who are hit by a motor vehicle often suffer fractures and other serious injuries due to the lack of protection against heavy metal machines, otherwise known as vehicles.
At Dansker & Aspromonte LLP Associates, we have represented many clients who have been injured in pedestrian or cycling accidents caused by another party’s negligence, including:
Fractures are common in motor vehicle accidents because the force of the impact is often enough to project vehicle occupants into hard surfaces in the vehicle, such as the steering wheel, dashboard, or door. We successfully obtained a verdict of $6.3 million for a young passenger who sustained fractures of her hip and leg in a multi-vehicle collision as well as $1 million for a 19-year-old college student who was a passenger in a vehicle where the driver suddenly lost control of the vehicle and hit a barrier. She suffered a fractured pelvis and bulging lumbar discs that required surgery to repair.
Construction work is often dangerous, which is why it is associated with the highest number of workplace fatalities and injuries, according to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). At Dansker & Aspromonte LLP Associates, we fight to hold contractors and property owners responsible for not maintaining a safe work site. We have represented multiple clients and recovered millions of dollars in construction accident cases.
One case we successfully pursued involved a 50-year-old construction worker who fell through a hole in the floor under construction. He suffered small fractures in his spine. We were able to recover $1.3 million on his behalf.
In another construction accident case, we were able to obtain a verdict of $2.25 million on behalf of a 46-year-old carpenter who fell from a ladder at work and suffered fractures in his knee and face.
We also represented an immigrant worker who fell 30 feet from scaffolding onto the concrete ground. He suffered fractures in his skull, neck, and back. We recovered $3.5 million on his behalf after proving the company he worked for failed to provide him with a necessary safety line.
