Our client’s son was walking through the parking lot of the family’s apartment complex when criminal activity erupted. Our client’s son sustained two fatal gunshot wounds to the chest. Clark Fountain was hired to investigate the case and determine if there were any potential claims to compensate the family for the loss of their son.

The initial investigation revealed that the apartment complex and surrounding areas had a decades-long history of violent crimes leading to injuries and death of innocent victims. Despite this knowledge, the owners of the apartment complex and management company failed to hire any contractors to provide security for their residents.

Partners Donald R. Fountain and Ben J. Whitman were able to obtain a significant confidential settlement and hold the defendants accountable for the wrongful death of our client’shttp://Donald R. Fountain beloved son.
