“Adam is amazing. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing after my trip and fall accident. The team is honest and worked very hard for me. They took care of me, and I really can’t thank them enough!”
- Megan from New York, NY
What Happened?
On December 3, 2023, Megan was walking along the East Houston Street sidewalk when she tripped on a cracked and raised section, causing her to fall on her left side. She felt intense pain in her arm and was unable to get up, remaining on the ground in shock and discomfort. To her disappointment, no one immediately stopped to help her. Eventually, someone came to her aid, and she was taken to the emergency room. There, she was evaluated, treated, and discharged with an arm sling and a prescription for pain medication.
Megan’s trip and fall accident resulted in injuries to her left shoulder, right wrist (her dominant hand), and foot. Initially, the doctors believed she had only fractured her left arm, but further evaluations revealed fractures in both her left shoulder and right wrist, as well as her foot. These injuries disrupted her daily life, making it difficult to lift or carry items, sleep comfortably, or enjoy leisure activities. Megan described her recovery as the most challenging year of her life. With conservative treatment and a dedicated home exercise program, her condition improved, and thankfully, surgery was not required.
Megan’s Result With Our NYC Trip and Fall Lawyers
A friend of Megan’s - who was part of the legal team where Megan also worked - recommended she reach out to an exceptional NYC attorney she knew: ADAM HANDLER. A week later, Megan made the call and immediately felt a sense of relief. She was grateful to finally find compassionate and skilled professionals who would help her, a stark contrast to how she felt after being left alone on the sidewalk. While every case is unique and results vary, Megan had an internal goal for the settlement amount she hoped to achieve, though she never shared this with Adam or his team. With the dedicated efforts of our NYC trip and fall lawyers, all of Megan’s medical bills were fully covered, and she secured a $150,000 settlement - the exact amount she had wished for - within just one year!
