Trip & Fall – Brain & Back Injury Settlement

Our client was staying at a hotel in Los Angeles, California, and walking her dog on the property when she tripped and fell on an uneven surface that the hotel had failed to maintain. The fall resulted in severe and life-altering injuries: a broken right orbital socket requiring surgery and a mild traumatic brain injury with lasting neurological symptoms.

A broken orbital socket – the bone surrounding the eye – is an extremely painful and serious injury that can affect vision, facial structure, and long-term health. Combined with a traumatic brain injury, our client faced a complex and difficult recovery that affected her ability to work, care for herself, and enjoy daily life. Under California premises liability law, hotels have an affirmative duty to maintain their grounds in a reasonably safe condition, including walkways, pathways, and all outdoor common areas accessible to guests.

Feher Law conducted a thorough investigation, documented the dangerous condition, and built a comprehensive case capturing the full extent of our client’s injuries. The case settled for $2,000,000, holding the Los Angeles hotel accountable for the preventable harm caused by their failure to maintain safe walking surfaces on the property.
