A haredi student who slipped in a school in Bnei Brak during camp, received from the insurance company of the school a sum of NIS 600,000 in compensation.
N., a student in Beis Yaakov from the center of the country, 20 years old today, was compensated in the amount of NIS 600,000 by the insurance company of the school for injuries caused to her leg - a result of sliding on school stairs during days off day camp held at the place. This was followed by an arrangement achieved by Attorney Tiran –Paz law firm in Ramat Gan representing N.
The story begins in 2006 at the summer vacation, at summer camp activities held at the school, which N. attended. One day in camp, was "wet day", as part of the activities of the day, there were water trampolines. At the end of the activity, when N. was soaked and dripping water, the staff of school counselors instructed her to go into the school building to replace her wet clothes with dry clothes. After N. changed her wet clothes, she started going down the stairs and suddenly slipped on the stairs that were wet. As a result, N. fell and suffered an injury with a broken leg that required several surgeries. N. suffered a limp for a long time and for harm to her leg she was left with limitation of motion of the leg and scars.
Following the incident, N.'s family turned to the Tiran –Paz law firm in Ramat Gan specializing in personal injury and medical malpractice with experience of over 20 years. A claim was placed against the school and camp who were covered by an insurance company.
"In such cases," explains attorney Galia Rosenbaum Tiran, "one has to prove there was negligence on the part of the school and camp managers. We therefore appended an expert's opinion on the scene and examined the stairs saying that they do not meet the necessary safety rules, and therefore the accident occurred, together with the activity held at the place which created an increased risk of water".
"We have proved that there had been negligence, the court's expert who examined the plaintiff stated that there is an orthopedic disability of 15% and that the plaintiff's condition may worsen towards the age of 50 due to the appearance of degenerative changes. On the basis of these data, the plaintiff received in recent weeks a total of NIS 600,000 in compensation for pain and suffering, third party assistance and future earnings losses."
