Chicago woman injured while shopping

A Chicago woman shopping at a local toy store was injured when a box fell of a shelf landing on her head. She sustained neck injuries which required physical therapy. The toy store’s insurance company refused to settle and a lawsuit was filed against the toy store.

At trial it was proven that the employee of the store was negligent in stacking the merchandise onto the store shelves. The improperly stacked shelf caused the merchandise to fall and hit the woman in the head.

The woman was awarded $20,0000 for her injuries.

Donald W. Fohrman & Associates, Ltd. was the attorney for the injury victim.
