- Together with his trial team, Nathan achieved a verdict of $802,805.15 in a sidewalk trip and fall, with zero comparative fault on the Plaintiff. Nathan's client was seriously injured when he tripped over an out-of-code abrupt raised edge on a sidewalk on a jogging/recreational path in a park, controlled by a special taxing district. The client required emergent lower back surgery, endured months of pain and suffering in the recovery, and lost wages while out of work in a high-earning profession. One noteworthy thing about this verdict was that the jury answered "No" to question #2 on the verdict form, as to whether Plaintiff was in any way negligent and contributed to his own injuries. This is a highly unusual result in a trip/slip and fall case, but under the facts, the jury concluded the Plaintiff had done nothing wrong and bore zero responsibility for his own injury. This was despite his testimony that he had traversed that same portion of the sidewalk dozens, if not hundreds, of times prior to the incident., 2024
