Guest Gets Over $13K After Getting Injured at South Beach Restaurant
A young lady went out to a popular South Beach restaurant located on Ocean drive. While eating there, a place struck her face below her eye. (The restaurant closed years later.)
She didn’t know who threw the plate. After the plate hit her, she went to Mount Sinai Hospital for medical treatment.
While there, a doctor stitched up her cut.
The good news?
Months after the accident, her cut was no longer visible. (That’s good news for her self esteem. However, the full value of the case was lower since the scar was not visible.) Many factors affect the value of a personal injury case. Often times, the extent of the injury is the biggest factor.
I looked at the restaurant’s website. It stated, that “guests shouldn’t be surprised if they hear the sounds of plates breaking. It is just tradition.”
American Empire Surplus Lines insured the restaurant. They are part of Great America Insurance Group.
They paid the $13,500 settlement. $1,000 of the settlement was from the insurance policy’s Medpay coverage. I did not charge a fee on this $1,000 portion of the settlement.
Settlement for Trip and Fall at Miami Beach Apartment Complex
Read about this settlement for my client, who tripped and fell at a South Beach apartment complex. She fractured her hip. She had rods inserted.
Lawsuit for Trip and Fall on Buckled Carpet at Miami Beach Condo
Learn why a court let a condo unit owner’s claim continue towards trial after she tripped on buckled carpet in a hallway. It happened at the King Cole Condominium in Miami Beach, Florida. This wasn’t my case.
It is located in North Beach.
Customer Gets $210K for Fall at a North Miami Beach Restaurant
See my case where I got a $210,000 settlement for man who had 2 surgeries to his wrist. A man was eating at a Denny’s restaurant in North Miami Beach, Florida. He was sitting in a booth. While attempting to exit the booth, it tipped in up. This sent him falling to floor.
Some lawyers rush to sue. However, I look at each case individually. Here, I tried to settle the case before suing the restaurant. Travelers Insurance Company insured the restaurant. (They are the same company whose that handles all Lyft accident cases in the United States. In another words, they are “big time”. However, Travelers would not offer more than $20,000.
Therefore, I sued the restaurant. Shortly thereafter, Travelers increased its offer to $40,000. With trial quickly approaching, we settled my client’s personal injury case for $210,000. Most of the settlement was for my client’s pain and suffering.

This is advantage over slipping and falling in Hialeah, Homestead, Doral or Kendall, which have lower rent. Those are nearby cities.
