$262,500 settlement after fall from roof: Neck & shoulder injuries

Fall from roof leads to huge recovery for Wisconsin subcontractor

Steve Caya recovered $262,500 for a client who sustained a neck injury and shoulder injuries after falling from a roof.

The client was injured while doing roofing work and the general contractor failed to provide fall protection to the subcontractors. The insurer denied liability throughout and alleged the client was responsible for his own injuries.

After Steve Caya submitted a detailed report to the insurer describing why the insurer’s position was incorrect, the insurer agreed to resolve the claim, settling for $262,500.
