Floored!: Real-Life Stories from a Slip and Fall Expert Witness

Autor Russell J. Kendzior
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 sep 2017
When watching the evening news you can be led to believe that most slip and fall claims are bogus and nothing more than a scam designed to fleece business owners and the insurance industry for money. But not all Plaintiffs are scam artists, and not all victims are seeking to cash in on their injury. Falls can affect each of us. The next victim could be your mother, your brother, your spouse or child.and oh yes, even you!

The truth of the matter is, each year millions of personal injury lawsuits are filed by victims of a slip, trip and fall accidents, most of which are settled out of court. However, over the past decade there has been a noticeable rise in the average settlement as well as jury verdicts. As an expert witness, Russell J. Kendzior has been retained in more than 700 slip, trip, and fall lawsuits and has now compiled over 50 of his top cases in Floored!

Rather than debate the truth behind slip, trip and fall litigation Kendzior sets the record straight and provides the reader with a behind the curtain view of the people filing these lawsuits and the companies being sued. This book is a great resource that explains what can be done to prevent the injury and thus the lawsuit through the eyes of a safety expert and stories of real-world victims.

Recenzii

Enter the herculean energies of Russell Kendzior to speak prevention and mitigation to this indifference and sometimes outright opposition to change for safety and the economic costs thereby avoided as well. He links knowledge to action to diffusion and is the guiding force behind pertinent safety standards.
Russell's professional resume shows his leadership in the safety profession. When OSHA begun revising its sub-part D. Walking and Working Surfaces standard, Russell was asked to provide input which was of great value in the regulatory process.
One of the best slip and fall experts I have ever used. A true professional!
We retained Russ in a floor mat trip and fall case and after a long and difficult battle we were able to overturn a lower courts summary judgment at the state supreme court, which lead to a $3.95 million settlement.
Russ is one of the most knowledgable, passionate and focused expert witness I have had the pleasure to work with. A true professional.
Russ is the experts expert!
Russ Kendzior's trial presence is without a doubt one of the best we have seen of any expert witness we have hired.
Russ Kendzior is the Albert Einstein of the walkway safety industry.
