$2 Million Settlement for Roofer Who Fractured Heel in Fall

A 41 year-old Vice President of M. W. Powell and Company was working as a foreman in his family’s roofing business when he attempted to pick up what he thought was debris. The “debris,” however, was an unsecured cover for a hole in the roof. Not seeing the hole, the foreman stepped into it and fell to the floor below, fracturing his heel. Attorneys Shawn Kasserman and Michelle Kohut represented him in the $2 million settlement.
