Defendant Prevails on Summary Judgment in Slip & Fall Case

Kimberly A. Beckwith, of our Tampa office, obtained a summary judgment in favor of our client, a hospital cleaning company. The plaintiff was visiting her son at a hospital when she slipped and fell on a floor that had been mopped about 45 minutes earlier by our client. Video footage showed the timeline of events, including several hospital staff members walking in the area without incident prior to the plaintiff’s fall. The court granted the motion for summary judgment, concluding there was no genuine issue of material fact despite the plaintiff’s testimony, which was inconsistent with other record evidence.
