Our client was serving as master of ceremonies at a festival at a Queens performing arts center. Leaving to collect her bag from the dressing room, she slipped on a floor that had just been mopped and carried no warning signs. Moments after she fell, one employee was overheard asking another: “Why didn’t you put the signs up?”

She suffered a displaced fracture of the right humerus, repaired with intramedullary nailing, along with a torn rotator cuff and significant permanent scarring to the right shoulder.
