Falling Merchandise Case

Woman was shopping in a clothing store when a large, heavy wooden shelf fell from above, striking her on top of foot. Her foot was fractured as a result, and she sustained permanent soft-tissue foot injuries, which negatively affected her quality of life. The insurance company for the clothing store refused to offer a fair settlement offer, and she was forced to hire a lawyer. Attorney Matt DeVos filed a lawsuit on her behalf, and the case was settled before trial.

“Matt showed concern about the accident and the impact it had on my daily life. Before I hired your firm, the settlement offer was a very insignificant amount and it seemed that [the defendant] was not taking my case very seriously. Matt worked very hard and I felt from day one very comfortable and confident that my case was in good hands. I was very happy with your services and I thank you for handling the case as you did.”

Woman was horseback riding at a resort while vacationing in the Wisconsin Dells area, when a golf ball from a nearby golf course came crashing through nearby trees, spooking the horse she was riding, causing her to fall and sustain serious injuries.

She will also have permanent problems with double-vision to her eye, and damage to her sinus cavity resulting in chronic sinusitis.

A settlement was reached prior to the filing of a lawsuit.

“I was absolutely satisfied with your knowledge of the law and legal expertise. The advice given and the shared knowledge of all the staff-as well as the hope-saw us through to the end and a nice settlement. Thank you.”
