East Providence slip & fall attorney Heather M. Spellman at d’Oliveira & Associates recently obtained a $200,000 settlement on behalf of a Rhode Island woman who was seriously injured in a slip and fall incident at a hardware store in Massachusetts. While walking into the store, our client slipped on an accumulation of water on the floor, causing her to fall and sustain severe lower-body injuries.
After extensive treatment without adequate relief, it was determined she would require surgery. The injury and recovery disabled the patient over an extended period through the completion of her post-surgical care.
“Premises liability cases often come down to careful documentation and persistence,” Attorney Spellman said. “Our client had been offered just $400 after slipping on water in an aisle at a big box store and waited almost two years before calling our office. By building the medical and liability evidence, we resolved the case for $200,000 and reduced the healthcare lien without ever having to file suit.”
