David Speyer Secures Take Nothing Ruling on Serious & Willful Misconduct Claim

David Speyer achieved a Take Nothing verdict on a Serious & Willful Misconduct claim, protecting our client from added liability. The applicant alleged major spine, back, lower-extremity, and shoulder injuries, claiming the company knowingly allowed her to use a faulty wheelchair lift.

David presented the mechanic’s same-day inspection report confirming the lift was safe and operable, undercutting any suggestion of reckless disregard. The Judge ruled that the employer’s conduct fell short of the strict Serious and Willful guidelines and dismissed the claim. The applicant attorney filed a petition for reconsideration for which the Trial Judge issued his report and recommendation supporting the defense verdict. The matter awaits the final determination of the Appeals Board. This outcome was the result of David’s thorough preparation and keen attention to the evidence, ultimately protecting the client from significant potential damages.
