Confidential Seven-Figure Settlement

Unsafe stair cases often begin with a fight over what made the stairs dangerous. Owners may claim the stairs met code, that no one else complained, or that the injured person simply misstepped.

CRPS adds another defense target because insurers often challenge pain conditions they cannot see on a standard scan. The case has to explain the broken leg, the later pain syndrome, and why both trace back to the fall.

The defense side looks for gaps between the incident and the diagnosis. Building the timeline tightly is what turns a disputed stair fall into a serious premises liability claim.
