Legal Assistant Hurt At Work Wins a 1.8 Million Dollar Settlement
It was a chilly, late winter afternoon when A.R. was outside enjoying the refreshing air during her lunch break. After taking some time to relax and stretch her legs, she made her way toward the high-rise building where her office was located. As she approached the door, she did not notice that there was ice forming above the exterior door that she was about to cross beneath. As she began to pass blow the overhang near the door, she was unexpectedly struck by a large chunk of falling ice. Disoriented and confused, she continued into the building and returned to her office. Upon seeing A.R. in distress and pain, her coworkers were quick to insist on medical care. Before long, she was on her way to seek emergency medical care. Luckily for A.R., medical treatment was not the only help she was put in touch with. A trusted friend urged A.R. to reach out to the attorneys of Hill & Moin and A.R. was thankful that she did. She described the steady communication, bedside manner of support staff, and overall ease of working with Hill & Moin as an “A+”. She added that, having had experience working in the legal field herself, she couldn’t have asked for a better team to handle her case. When all was said and done, the counsel of Hill & Moin was able to pin down a staggering 1.8-million-dollar settlement for the pain and suffering A.R. had withstood. With her freshly awarded funds, A.R. has plans to save and invest in her future and those of her children as well.
