Construction site – traumatic brain injury suffered after fall from ladder

Settlement at mediation for long-time construction worker who fell at jobsite suffering multiple fractures of his spine and shoulder. The plaintiff was employed by a subcontractor and the supervising contractor failed to provide him with a lift to perform work, instead giving him a ladder to work on an uneven surface. The worker lost his balance and fell 15-20 feet. He struck his head and sustained a traumatic brain injury resulting in well-documented mood changes and disfunction.
