Injuries from Unsafe Premises:

  • Gas station owner not responsible for client's injuries from slip on oil spill.   
    Description: A gas station owner was not responsible for a patron's injuries when the patron slipped on an oil spill near the gas pumps. The court found that the condition was open and obvious and the patron should have discovered the condition on his own. As a result, the defendant owner had no duty to warn about it.
  • Restaurant Not Responsible to Injury to Patron from fall from raised platform where table was located   
    Description: A restaurant patron sued the restaurant for injuries she sustained when she fell when she got up from her booth that was located on a raised floor. The court of appeals agreed with the trial court that the step between the floor and the booth was an open and obvious danger and patron should have discovered this condition and protected herself.
  • Construction Injury Leads to Settlement   
    Description: In some cases, it takes persistence and perseverance to obtain justice. Ben Barrett, Sr., was able to win a substantial award for a client after a seven-year court battle. The client had been injured while on a construction site where a residential home was being built. The truss upon which he was standing, cracked and gave way, causing him to fall to the ground below.
