Myron Fishbane recently recovered a jury award of $800,000 after he broke his ankle in three places due to falling on the steps of the Chelsea Apartments in Manhattan, New York.
In 2004, Fishbane fell on the steps coming into the lobby of the Chelsea Apartments. Fishbane’s ankle was broken in three places and continues to require a metal rod and three screws to hold it together.
At the time of the unfortunate slip and fall accident, the steps of the Chelsea Apartments were covered with water, lacked adequate handrails and violated several other New York building code provisions with regards to lighting.
After a lengthy and hotly contended jury trial, Fishbane received a jury award of $500,000 for past pain and suffering and $300,000 for future pain and suffering.
