Strategic Use of the Eggshell Rule in Trenton NJ Settlement
One challenge was the client’s history of similar medical treatments before the fall. To address this, our New Jersey slip and fall accident lawyers strategically applied the eggshell skull rule. This legal doctrine holds that a negligent party is fully responsible for the injuries they cause, even if the victim had a pre-existing condition.
This careful legal approach helped illustrate that the accident worsened the client’s condition and that the defendant remained liable. The use of this rule played a crucial role in securing the final $400,000 settlement for our Trenton, NJ client.
