ExperienceWon a summary judgment in favor of our commercial client finding no duty was owed to a patron who tripped and fell in a mall. Secured this favorable decision by convincing the court to view the evidence showing the plaintiff was in an area of the property that was not under the control of our client, near individuals who were not employees/agents of our client. Demonstrated the plaintiff instead tripped on her own untied shoelace, warranting a finding that the plaintiff was wholly unable to make out a prima facie case of negligence against our client.
