Push-and-Fall Victim Receives $250,000 in Settlement

Peter Wachowski Obtains $250,000 Settlement for Push-and-Fall Injury Victim

Peter Wachowski, a partner at Bellas & Wachowski, specializes in representing victims of push-and-fall injury incidents. Peter successfully obtained a $250,000 settlement for a client who entered a local establishment and was pushed by a security guard and fell, resulting in injury and pain. 

This complex push-and-fall injury case required experienced legal counsel, as the guard denied pushing our client and lied, suggesting she slipped and fell due to her high heels and rainy weather.

Surveillance Video of Push-and-Fall Injury Critical Evidence

Bellas & Wachowski requested the video from the establishment, which showed that our client was wearing flat shoes and the guard was continuously pushing her. The establishment conveniently lost the portion of the video showing the actual fall. Another security guard testified under oath that the defendant did push our client and was responsible for the push-and-fall injury. 

Push-and-Fall Injury Medical Bills Reduced with Total Guard Approach

The security guard’s physical force caused our client to sustain shoulder injuries and back pain. Surgery was necessary for our client’s left shoulder due to the pain she was experiencing. Since she has not yet been able to work as a result of the injury and without insurance coverage, she has a significant amount of medical bills. As part of our Total Guard Approach ® (Money Maximizer), we reduced her medical expenses and secured a settlement of $250,000 by employing strategic litigation and mediation.
