She required surgery on her hip and on her ankle due to the accident.According to Mr. Monier, the injuries limit the woman\u2019s ability to perform activities of daily living, such as walking, bending, exercising, and sitting. She is unable to do regular house chores and sit or stand for long periods of time.The building owner was prepared to argue that it was not responsible for the injuries. The owner denied negligence, claiming that no one had complained to them about the condition, and they lacked notice of the slipping hazard outside the elevator.\u201cEven though the building owner is one of the biggest landlords in the City of New York, they argued that they acted reasonably and were not responsible for the Plaintiff\u2019s injuries and damages \u2014 even though they allowed the condition to exist for an unreasonable period of time and did nothing to eliminate its presence,\u201d Mr. Monier said.\u201cWe believe that while this million-dollar settlement cannot undo the injuries and damage that she suffered, it will assist my client in living with the residual disabilities caused as a result of the defendant\u2019s negligence, for the rest of her life.\u201dAbout David Resnick & Associates, P.C.David Resnick & Associates, P.C., based in Midtown Manhattan, represents clients throughout the New York City area who have been seriously injured due to the negligence of others.
