Catastrophic Lawn Mower Accident Claims Life Of Rio Grande, New Jersey Man

According to news sources, a 72-year old man, Art Shiver, was killed when the lawn mower he was riding flipped over pinning him underneath. The catastrophic fatality occurred at the Sands Baron Golf Club on Route 9 when Mr. Shivers came close to a sand trap causing the lawn mower to flip over on top of the operator.

As an experienced product liability lawyer familiar with lawn mower defects, I am all too familiar with heart wrenching catastrophic injuries and wrongful deaths that occur as a result of lawn mower accidents. Our hearts and prayers go out to the family of Art Shivers and we will keep them in our prayers. Although the investigation is incomplete, the family of Art Shivers would be well advised to retain the services of an experienced Pennsylvania product liability lawyer to commence an investigation about their legal rights and options. Depending on who and what was responsible for this fatal tragedy, Mr. Shiver’s family would be able to receive compensation for their loss.
