A homeowner asked our client to trim a palm tree taller than 15 feet. When his chainsaw cut his strap, he fell and died. Four other competent attorneys declined to take the case, citing that there was no liability on behalf of the homeowner. WLC took the case, defeated a Motion for Summary Judgment (FAQ), and settled the case on the eve of trial. It was a lifesaving moment for the family left behind.
