William Peters, a Partner in our Fort Lauderdale office, recently obtained summary judgment in favor of a statewide towing company that was sued by a customer alleging that she was injured while exiting the tow truck. Mr. Peters pointed to the Plaintiff’s inability to describe any vehicle defects or actions of the driver which caused her to fall. The Court held that the mere occurrence of a fall does not equate to negligence on the part of the vehicle owner.
