Content:

A Cuyahoga County jury awarded a $584,000 verdict to a construction worker who had been injured when he was struck by a construction vehicle. The verdict reflected the jury's finding that the vehicle operator bore primary responsibility for failing to maintain proper awareness of workers in the area.

The verdict was adjusted to reflect a finding of 30% comparative fault on behalf of the worker under Ohio's comparative negligence rules, meaning the worker received compensation proportional to the court's determination of the parties' relative responsibility for the accident.

The case was tried by partners Ryan Fisher and Greg Scott of Lowe Trial Lawyers. The result demonstrated the firm's ability to achieve a favorable jury verdict on a construction site accident case, even where comparative negligence issues were present.
