It seems to me worth pursuing further.
I would need to know more details about how the accident happened.

Re: stairs injurie
Your case probably worth to pursue due to seriousness of your injuries. I need more facts to be able to tell you if there are any negligence on the part of the owner/manager of the building. You can send me pictures of the stairs where you fell and check with the city planning if there is a building code violation/non-compliance. Another Twist to your case is whether as a volunteer you are covered under worker's compensation laws. Call me at 213.388.7070 for a free consultation.

You should have an attorney review it. The insurance adjuster is not the final word. However, without more facts, no one can tell you if you have a case.
