Car Accident – Spine Injury Settlement #1

Our client in Los Angeles, California, suffered catastrophic spinal injuries after falling down a residential staircase that contained hidden structural irregularities – defects that were not visible to residents or visitors, and that the property owner had a clear duty to identify and correct. The injuries required spinal fusion surgery and the permanent implantation of a spinal cord stimulator to manage chronic pain that would affect her for the rest of her life.

Spinal fusion surgery is a major procedure with a long and difficult recovery period, and the need for a permanent spinal cord stimulator reflects the lasting and debilitating nature of the injuries sustained. These injuries impacted our client’s ability to work, move freely, and enjoy the quality of life she had before the accident. Feher Law pursued a comprehensive premises liability claim, documenting the hidden defects in the staircase and establishing the property owner’s negligent failure to inspect, disclose, and repair the dangerous conditions.

The case settled in February 2024 for $2,000,000, providing our client with the financial resources needed to cover ongoing medical care, pain management, and lost earning capacity. If you suffered a spinal injury due to unsafe property conditions in Los Angeles or anywhere in California, Feher Law is ready to fight for the compensation you deserve.
