Case Filed for Worker Injured by Aramark Forklift Operator

Attorneys at Arnold & Itkin, led by Trent Shelton, filed suit in Dallas County, Texas, against Aramark Management Services, LP, after a forklift operator employed by the company reversed without warning and struck our client while she was working at a facility in Irving, Texas. This forklift accident caused our client severe injuries.

Our client was simply doing her job when the operator's failure to follow basic safety steps put her in harm's way. Forklift operators are required to check their surroundings and ensure the path behind them is clear before reversing, precisely because a moving forklift can cause devastating injuries to anyone in its path. It is also the employer’s responsibility to ensure that anyone operating a forklift is well-trained in its operation and certified.

Our work injury attorneys are pursuing full accountability from Aramark Management Services for the severe injuries our client suffered because of this preventable incident.
