The Lanier Law Firm Takes On Caterpillar in Personal Injury Case
On Monday, January 11th, Mark Lanier will take on machinery giant, Caterpillar and one of their distributors on behalf of a man who was critically injured while operating one of their scrapers. "The problem with this case is that this accident was preventable." stated Mr. Lanier, "The company was aware of the defects on this particular piece of machinery yet failed to inform those who were using it or rectify the issue. Now a healthy young man does not have the use of his legs due to someone else's negligence and failure to act."
The victim suffered vertebrae fractures and permanent paralysis due to the malfunction of the machine that was being operated otherwise in the most safe and proper manner. The Lanier Law Firm will seek liability from the defendants in the fact that they designed and marketed the 623 G Scraper while knowing it was unreasonably dangerous.
For years, The Lanier Law Firm has represented consumers who have been seriously injured by defective products, both at home and in the workplace. The work, on behalf of clients, has resulted not only in financial recoveries, but has also put pressure on manufacturers to design safer products. While no amount of money can truly compensate a client for a debilitating injury or the loss of a loved one, they, and The Lanier law Firm, are gratified knowing that future consumers might not be put at the same risk.
