I have a few cases coming up for trial soon. In one case, client was in her house. Neighbor's kid came over and said their house was on fire, and asked for help. Long story short, the parents had left the kids home alone, and they had also left a pot of grease on a stove under a sparking fan. Client tried to help, and ended up getting burning grease on her foot. She's recovered reasonably well from her burns, but we'll see how it turns out.
In the other case, client is a student at a local college. There was a big campus event, and the school had put out balloons tied down with bricks. An unknown person dropped one of these packages off the second level, and it fell, hitting my client on the noggin. He suffered a head injury, including a concussion and a substantial scar on the top of his head. That's coming up soon too.
Some new cases came in too. In the latest, client is a child who was in a vehicle that was rear-ended in a car accident. Kid has a cracked rib. That should walk him in the "serious injury" door of NY's no-fault law.
