Katherine McGovern, of the Ft. Lauderdale office, obtained a Summary Judgment in a change in elevation case. The Plaintiff fell and was injured visiting a model home when she failed to appreciate a step down into a garage converted for use as a temporary sales center. This is typical practice in new construction communities.

Katherine defeated arguments relating to “unusual design” and codes relating to commercial, as opposed to residential, properties along with all the usual optical illusion arguments.
