Plaintiff was a laborer who fell from a defective ladder on a construction site while constructing a shoring box. He sustained a fracture to his right lower leg and injury to his right knee, which were treated without surgery. After a period of time out of work, he returned to work and is presently working. Napoli Shkolnik was able to negotiate a very favorable settlement at mediation, as well as obtaining a reduction in his workers compensation lien.
