Slip & Fall – Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Settlement

Our client suffered a concussion and mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) after slipping at an indoor water park in California during a family outing. What should have been a safe and enjoyable recreational experience became a life-altering event when unsafe conditions at the facility caused a preventable fall. Our investigation revealed that the defendant had knowledge of multiple prior similar incidents at the same location – a troubling pattern of negligence that the facility had repeatedly failed to address.

A mild traumatic brain injury can cause chronic headaches, difficulty concentrating, memory problems, mood instability, and ongoing neurological symptoms that impact a person’s ability to work, parent, and enjoy daily activities. Despite the profound impact on our client’s life, the defendant offered far less than fair value. Feher Law rejected the inadequate offer and prepared aggressively for trial.

Just days before trial, the defendant agreed to a $1,785,000 settlement in June 2024 – more than five times their prior California Code of Civil Procedure 998 offer. This result reflects the strength of the case Feher Law built and our commitment to maximum recovery for every client. If you were injured in a slip and fall at a water park, recreational facility, or any venue in California, contact Feher Law today.
