400,000 Slip & Fall Settlement

Client was a 45 year old who was injured when he slipped and fell at a popular Pennsylvania amusement park while attempting to exit a ride that had made an emergency stop.

The client was attempting to access the emergency stairway, which was over twenty feet in the air, when he slipped on a wet surface causing him to aggravate injuries to his neck that would later require surgery.

Through the assistance of an renowned amusement ride expert, Galfand Berger was able to demonstrate that the park had inadequate evacuation procedures in place for the attraction, which had a history of breaking down mid-ride.

The case was settled at mediation after suit was filed in excess of $400,000.00.

This matter was handled by Philadelphia premises liability lawyer, Michael Malvey, Esquire.
