Ft. Lauderdale Partner Alyssa Tornberg and Miami Associate Michelle Gonzalez recently obtained summary judgment in a slip-and-fall case in Miami-Dade County.
The case involved a slip-and-fall in the parking lot adjacent to their client’s medical practice. Plaintiff argued that the practice had a non-delegable duty to maintain the common areas in a safe condition. In their Motion for Summary Judgment, Alyssa and Michelle argued that pursuant to the terms of the lease and based upon the record evidence they obtained via discovery, the defendants had no such duty, and therefore, were entitled to summary judgment. They took this position on day one of the case assignment, and on the eve of the hearing, Plaintiff conceded and agreed not to dispute their motion.
