Re: Werner S2210 Attic Ladder
Posted by Paul on 1/18/11
I'm an attorney in Tennessee. I represent a gentleman who was severely
injured when the lower hinges on his Werner S2210 snapped. I was doing
some research and ran across this site. I'm very interested in
speaking
with anyone that has had a similar experience as my client. My email
address is ppeel@farris-law.com.
