Represented BB

Area of Expertise: Personal Injury

Settlement Amount: Confidential

Ski area negligence case filed against Vail Resorts, who operate the Keystone Ski area, in federal court in Colorado. BB was an Iowa skier traveling downhill and was struck by a ski patrol worker traveling uphill on a snowmobile. BB suffered a patella fracture and two meniscal tears that were surgically repaired. We filed suit in federal court to avoid litigating the matter in Summit County, Colorado, whose economy depends on the ski industry. We obtained a confidential settlement after a settlement conference held by the federal Magistrate Judge in Denver.
