A would-be client went to a personal injury law firm looking for legal representation. But after the man was injured when the chair he was sitting in at the law firm collapsed he sought damages against the law firm for the injuries that he suffered from the chair.
The man took the premises liability case to court and won a $2.2 million jury verdict. The law firm was liable for one-third of the man's total damages award and the retailer that sold the chair was liable for two-thirds.
