Russell M. Pfeifer (Partner-Miami, FL) and Emma Nunn (Associate-Miami, FL) obtained final summary judgment in favor of a product manufacturer in a slip-and-fall lawsuit filed by the largest personal injury firm in Florida. After nearly one year of litigation between the plaintiff and a large retail establishment, the retailer forced the plaintiff into amending her complaint, adding our client to the suit. The allegations, mainly advanced by the retailer, were that the water in which the plaintiff slipped and fell most likely came from our machine; and further, the subject machine had a long history of leaking water. Russell and Emma vigorously defended these claims and ultimately made the plaintiff’s case against the retailer since by their own admission, if the subject machine had issues, it should have been their responsibility to take it out of service and have it repaired. Russell and Emma proved that our client had no knowledge of any defect in the subject machine and that the retailer had in place a system to call for maintenance through a portal. The service records did not support any claim that the machine had issues when the accident occurred and ultimately neither the plaintiff nor the retailer adduced any evidence to support a claim of product liability. Following an unsuccessful mediation, the retailer followed up several times pleading to contribute toward a global settlement and to accept its tender of defense and indemnity. Russell and Emma refused to do so and instead sought summary judgment, which was granted.
