Arnold & Itkin Secure $395,000 Settlement for Man Struck by Mooring Line
Posted on
A U.S. offshore injury worker suffered severe injuries after he was struck by a mooring line while working offshore. The man was stationed on a rig in the Gulf of Mexico where the accident occurred. As a result of the injury, the man was diagnosed with a variety of leg injuries, and eventually needed arthroscopic surgery to correct the problems. The man hired Arnold & Itkin to help him seek compensation after suffering these injuries and going through surgery.
During the case, a defendant argued that the worker had the knee injuries before the accident occurred, and that the injuries themselves were caused by his own negligence. Arnold & Itkin were able to prove that this was not the case. Attorneys Jason Itkin, Noah Wexler, and Cory Itkin all came together to prove this fact to the courts, and the case was settled with $395,000 awarded to the plaintiff.
