$500,000 Settlement – Retail Store Premises Liability Slip & Fall

A $500,000 settlement was secured in a premises liability case involving a slip-and-fall at a Chicago-area retail store in September 2017. The Plaintiff slipped and fell on a water spot on the floor at the retail store next to a display stand and broke her leg. The retail store did not have any warning or caution signs around the spill that occurred shortly before the Plaintiff walked past the stand. The Plaintiff needed surgery, injections and physical therapy following the fracture to her left leg.
