Verdicts & Settlements

With more than 30 years of experience representing plaintiffs who have sustained serious personal injuries or financial losses, the trial lawyers of BIREN/KATZMAN have successfully handled hundreds of cases, collecting more than $150 million for our clients. The following case is just one example:

PEREZ V. 24 HOUR FITNESS

Man Awarded $1.88 Million For Neck Injury Sustained When Gym's Bench Breaks

Abraham Perez had been working out his entire life. When he lifted 225 pounds on defendant's incline bench press, the backrest of the bench broke, causing his neck to hyperflex.

The defendant gym contended that it inspected the bench every day and did nothing wrong. BIREN/KATZMAN proved at trial that the inspections were superficial and that the integrity of the wood component of the bench had never been analyzed in the decade that the bench had been in use.

Mr. Perez who underwent a 3 level cervical fusion was awareded $1.88 million by a Riverside jury.
