My brother (31 years old) fell up a flight of stairs while my family was vacationing at a rental property. He reinjured his leg (broken femur) above the old break. The stairs are progressively taller (ranging from 6-1/2" to 9+"). It's complicated, he's on Medicaid and is disabled (from the original injury). My mother's wedding was held at the house, and she may try to discourage my brother from taking any action because the house belongs to a friend of her new son-in-law's. My concern is that if we don't officially "do" anything they may leave the stairs exactly like they are and someone else might get hurt.
I've been told that the matter will be "taken care of." I'm not sure what that means. I think they will have a conversation with the owner. I've checked with the Breckenridge building inspector and he says that the stairs aren't to code. If my brother opts to not do anything, is there any action I can take to ensure that the stairs are returned to code?
