Slip and fall accidents are a surprisingly common occurrence, often leading to significant injuries. These incidents can happen anywhere, from slippery sidewalks to wet floors in stores, making them a pervasive safety concern. While many people may dismiss these accidents as minor inconveniences, the potential consequences can be severe, including broken bones, head injuries, and even fatalities.

Client’s case

An elderly woman was shopping for groceries at a supermarket a few blocks from her Upper West Side Manhattan home. She slipped on a puddle of water leaking from a produce freezer suffering a broken knee cap and requiring surgery. The case was resolved at a mediation following completion of many depositions.
