Case arose when disabled client was left unattended in a restroom at a local care facility. The caretaker negligently failed to provide for a safe transfer of our client who fell to the ground, breaking bones in her lower legs.  Video from the facility was produced after the suit was filed but it was edited to omit the exact time of the fall. Interestingly, the insurance carrier claimed to have settled the case and insisted that a lawsuit should be dismissed while dealing with a relative of the injured party – and not the legal representative of the party..  After filing the lawsuit and establishing the neglect of the facility in dealing with her fall, a settlement for the limits of coverage was achieved.. POLICY LIMITS settlement.
