Increase legal defense contract by $250,000 for personal injury lawsuits
In Plain English
Richmond faces ongoing personal injury and dangerous condition lawsuits from incidents like falls or accidents on city property. The city hired Allen Glaessner law firm in 2020 to defend these cases. The original contract budget has run low due to active litigation costs, requiring this fourth increase to continue legal defense through 2023.
