Electrician Fell from Warehouse Work Platform

 

He Suffered Severe Fractures

$822,500 Verdict

Kevin Dalton sued Injury Intelligence Systems for personal injury after he fell from a homemade work platform and fractured his wrist and elbow on January 2, 2001.

Dalton, a 33-year-old electrician, was sent by his employer to the defendant's warehouse to work on lights on the ceiling. The warehouse owner offered to have one of its employees operate a forklift with a work platform positioned on it to raise Dalton to ceiling height.

The platform was homemade, held in place by gravity and a four-inch clamp. As the platform was being lowered, it tilted to one side and threw Dalton to the concrete floor. He fell about six feet and was off work for five months. He returned at half his usual salary due to his injuries.
