Sabatini and Associates, LLC

Attorney James Sabatini has filed a lawsuit on behalf of his client who was seriously injured in a car crash. The client sustained a herniated disc in the cervical spine that produces radiating pain.  The client initially attempted to handle the case on his own and deal with the insurance company’s claims adjuster.  His dealings with the insurance company became increasingly frustrating so he contacted Attorney Sabatini to takeover the case on his behalf. It is not uncommon for the firm to be retained by a client only after the client attempted to handle his case on own.  In cases involving significant injury, the injured person absolutely requires legal representation to ensure that he is properly and fully compensated for his injuries and losses.

Connecticut personal injury attorney James Sabatini has filed suit on behalf of his client who sustained serious injuries as a result of a defective parking lot.  Commercial and retail parking lots have to be maintained and inspected by the property owner. Failing to maintain a parking lot results in deteriorating conditions including loose gravel, cracks and potholes.  These hazards pose a significant risks to shoppers.  Stepping into a pothole or tripping over a serious crack in the pavement can cause serious injury.   The property owner must take reasonable steps to fix the defect or at a minimum place a warning cone to alert shoppers of the hazard. 

The failure to correct the defect or warn against it constitutes negligence and the property owner will be liable for injuries caused by the hazard.  In many of these cases, the property owner’s insurance company will argue that the injured shopper was at fault for not seeing the hazard.  In most cases this argument can be defeated or minimized. For example, shoppers will not see the crack, loose gravel or pothole because they are carrying large boxes or shopping bags.  In other instances, the hazard has been covered by leaves, sand, debris or snow.

Sabatini and Associates, LLC has been retained by a woman who suffered a serious personal injury, fractured ankle, as a result of trip and fall. The injury was caused by a defective and hazardous condition located in a commercial parking lot.  Under Connecticut law, business property owners have a legal duty to maintain their property in a reasonably safe condition.  To satisfy this duty, the property owner must periodically inspect the property to determine if an unsafe condition exists and if so, to then take reasonable measures in a timely fashion to fix the hazard.  If the property owner fails to carry out this duty, the property owner is liable for injuries suffered by individuals who are lawfully on the premises.

A Connecticut family seriously injured in a recent car accident has retained the law firm of Sabatini and Associates to represent them in their case.  The family was rear ended causing multiple family members including two small children to be injured. The entire family was taken from the collision scene by ambulance to the local emergency room. Our firm’s initial investigation into the collision has determined that the impact of the collision was greater than what the visible property damage to the vehicles would suggest. This was determined by witness accounts of the collision and structural damage to the family’s vehicle behind the bumper cover.
