Confidential settlement – 75 year-old falls at hotel (Orlando, FL)

Our client, a 75 year-old grandmother visiting an Orlando resort hotel, fell while engaging in an activity at the resort.  She sustained a serious knee injury. John Elliott Leighton proved through the use of an engineer, that the surface involved was defective and posed an unreasonable risk of harm to guests. The case was set for trial and the evidence would show that the surface violated the building code.  A confidential settlement was obtained prior to trial.
