91-Year Old Brooklyn Resident Receives Substantial Settlement After Slip and Fall Due to Leak in Rental Apartment
July 20th, 2015
When an elderly individual is injured due to the negligence of another, experienced attorneys sensitive to their needs must be retained. The attorneys at Hill & Moin LLP take special interest in helping elderly clients.
Ida Michelovski, 91, was injured due to the negligence of her Brooklyn landlord. Despite numerous complaints to building management, Ms. Michelovski’s toilet leaked for weeks causing the floor to become slippery. Ms. Michelovski slipped on the bathroom floor and fractured her hip. Although surgery to replace her hip was successful, Ms. Michelovski often suffers from pain due to the accident. While no amount of compensation can heal the physical pain, Hill & Moin is thrilled to have negotiated with the landlord until a favorable settlement was obtained. Regarding her experience, Ms. Michelovski stated “Melisande and Cheryl are the best attorneys I could have ever asked for. They treated me like I was family and I will never forget it.”
