HOUSTON – A worker is seeking $1 million from the owners of a property after he fell while working and was paralyzed.

Pedro Xep Delores filed a complaint on Oct. 24 in the Harris County District Court against Continental Properties Co., et al. alleging negligence.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that on May 8, 2017, he was working on a job site in Austin owned by the defendants when he fell from a dangerous height and landed on debris left on the ground. He alleges he sustained severe and lasting injuries to his back, neck, and other parts of the body that resulted in paralysis as a result of the fall. 

The plaintiff holds Continental Properties Co., et al. responsible because the defendants allegedly failed to develop and implement proper safety protocols, failed to properly train and supervise employees and failed to provide necessary assistance.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks monetary relief of more than $1 million and such other and further relief to which he may be entitled. He is represented by Benny Agosto Jr. and Kelly M. Woods of Abraham, Watkins, Nichols, Sorrels, Agosto & Aziz in Houston.
