John R., who is a residential electrician in Denver, suffered major back injuries when he fell ten feet from the top of a 12 foot ladder while he was working on a light fixture at a restaurant. The ladder had been defectively manufactured by Red Top Ladder, Inc.
John had always been active and was a keen jet skier and hunter. However his once vigorous lifestyle has now ended since the accident and he is limited to short periods of walking.
He endured a several surgeries for his injuries and a great deal of pain and had to attend a Rehabilitation Center where he had to learn to walk again. He was also terminated from his job due to his condition and is unlikely to work full time again as his doctor has said that he will need more fusion surgeries and has a high risk of developing arthritis. He has also been diagnosed as being permanently impaired.
John was recently awarded a $3.5 million judgement for injuries against Red Top Ladder
