Plaintiff suffered severe burns on 68% of his body after being lit on fire while sleeping in his truck. The defendant in this case failed to meet industry standards when dealing with an intoxicated person on their premises. Defendant’s failure resulted in the assailant loitering for an extended period of time and ultimately lead to plaintiff’s injuries. The injuries were so extreme that plaintiff was left with no use of his hands outside of being able to lift his arms up and down. The case resulted in a settlement one week before trial in the amount of $4.85 Million.
