Personal injuries often extend far beyond physical pain. At Lawrence & Associates, we understand that a serious accident can impact your family and your future. We recently represented a client who suffered life altering consequences following a horseback riding accident, including the eventual end of her marriage due to the strain of her injuries.

Breaking Through the Liability Waiver

Many people believe that if they sign a liability waiver, they lose their right to seek justice. This is a common misconception that our firm proactively addresses. In this case, the defense argued they were protected by both a signed waiver and statutory immunity laws.

Our team refused to accept these barriers. We focused on the fact that a waiver does not give a business permission to be negligent. To build a strong case, we collaborated with an equine expert to prove the riding facility was responsible for the incident. This expertise allowed us to show that the facility failed in its duty to keep our client safe.

A Trusted Partner for Your Recovery Journey

We believe in the “Right to a Full Analysis” as part of our Client Bill of Rights. By thoroughly evaluating every legal avenue, we successfully overcame the defense’s attempts to dismiss the claim. The end result was a $500,000 settlement that provides our client with the financial support she needs to move forward.
