Our client was an active college student in Fort Collins, Colorado, involved in campus activities, working multiple jobs, and commonly working out and interacting with friends. On her 21st birthday, she and her friends, decided to celebrate at a few local bars. Upon arrival to the last bar, the floor was slippery and partially covered in trash, including broken glass. As a business, this bar has a duty to exercise reasonable care to protect her against dangers that the employees knew of, including glass on a slippery floor. The bar had not exercised its duty to protect, causing our client to step onto a glass cup and fall forcefully to the floor. Her hand landed on a large piece of wet, broken glass, slicing a tendon in her hand, causing significant nerve damage. Due to this incident, our client had to undergo surgery, treatment, and seven months of rehabilitation. During her recovery, she was unable to perform in school, at her three jobs, or live the active lifestyle she had before this incident. To aid with her medical bills, lost wages, scarring and physical limitations, VanMeveren Law Group was able to obtain a large settlement on her behalf.
