CSCS represented the family of an 83-year-old woman who slipped on a small patch of ice while leaving an apartment complex. She fractured her skull and later died from the injuries.
Property Owner Disputes Responsibility
The apartment-complex owners argued that they had acted reasonably in clearing the walkway and should not be responsible for the small amount of ice that remained.
$500,000 Mediation Settlement
Joseph Cammarata and Allan M. Siegel represented the family. The wrongful-death premises-liability case settled at mediation for $500,000.
