Beach umbrella foot impalement settles for $135,000.00

When summer comes many of our clients and their families spend time at the beach and unfortunately we see a lot of injury cases that derive from those trips. Consequently Clark and Steinhorn have become very familiar with the Circuit Court for Worcester County, Maryland as a result of Ocean City crashes and falls. An unexpected kind of case we see increasingly are injuries from flying commercial grade beach umbrellas. The outfits that rent these often do so with the knowledge that  on summer afternoons the wind picks up from the South and turns the umbrellas into spears with huge sails on them. Their employees fail to properly secure the umbrellas and give the renters no warning of their potential danger to the public.
