Attorney Mike Smith Obtains Dismissal of Premises Liability Claim Based on Lack of Notice

Attorney Michael Smith recently obtained summary disposition on a slip and fall claim where Plaintiff claimed she slipped and fell on an oily substance in our client’s restaurant. The Court ruled that there was no evidence that Defendant had actual notice of the alleged hazard.  The court further ruled that Plaintiff did not present sufficient evidence to support the claim that the substance existed on the floor for a sufficient length of time that Defendant should have known of its existence (constructive notice).   With recent changes in law, premises liability cases require skilled defense lawyers to obtain these results!
