We recovered over $1.2 Million in a construction negligence case for a tradesman who suffered a shoulder injury during construction of the “Deep Tunnel” storm water remediation project. Our client slipped and fell while carrying a concrete form board as he attempted to negotiate his way through the slippery and debris strewn tunnel. We showed that due to the confined workspace, wet conditions and dim lighting, it was imperative that the general contractor enforce proper housekeeping on the job to prevent this type of accident. The general contractor failed to monitor the housekeeping on the job site and also failed to take steps to reduce the flow of ground water through the work area and our client was injured as a result.
