A 45 year old man tripped and fell on ice on a walkway at his garden apartment complex. We were able to prove that the unnatural accumulation of ice was caused by a downspout system installed by the property owner which caused water from the roof to be splashed onto the walkway, causing a hazardous condition. Our client suffered a fractured ankle due to the fall, requiring surgery. The case settled about one and one-half years into the litigation for $225,000.
