$300,000

Settlement for Child Burned by Defective Playground Equipment

The Case
A minor child suffered burn injuries from playground equipment during the summer months. We brought the case as a product defect and failure-to-warn claim against the equipment company that made the playground equipment and the city responsible for maintaining it.
The Outcome
The case resolved for $300,000. Because the client is a minor, the settlement was approved by the court and structured to provide future periodic payments to the child beginning at age 18, protecting the recovery until she is old enough to benefit from it.
