Boy Injured in Bungee Cord Accident Awarded $10 Million

Lawsuit: Dangerous Products:
              Bungee Cord
Victim: 15 year old boy
Injury: Eye
Verdict: $10 Million
Lawyers: Nicholas Wise,
               Edward S. Bosek

Dangerous Products: Bungee Cord. A 15-year-old boy suffered blindness in one eye, loss of the quality of life and emotional distress, from a bungee cord accident. He was on a school field trip involving a zip line and was struck by a broken bungee cord which acted as a brake for the zip line, that was carrying another student between two trees while the boy was waiting for his turn. Weitz & Luxenberg attorneys Nicholas Wise and Edward S. Bosek argued that the bungee cord in the break system was too short and negligently designed. The victim recovered $10,000,000 compensation from the company that made and installed the system. If you have been injured, find out if you deserve compensation too.
