Defense Verdict for Hospital Client in Alleged Premises Liability Case
Secured a defense verdict on behalf of a hospital client in a premises liability case in Virginia (City of Suffolk). The plaintiff alleged that health care staff did not timely tend to or otherwise notify staff about a hazardous condition on the floor that allegedly resulted in a slip and fall leading to injuries. Successfully argued that hospital and health care staff were unaware of any hazardous condition and that alternatively, plaintiff and her close relatives were responsible for creating the hazardous condition themselves.
