Woman sues mall kiosk for slip and fall

Slip01

ORLANDO — A Florida Mall patron is suing Hair Revolution LLC, a kiosk business owner, citing alleged insufficient measures were taken to prevent injuries for a slip and fall.

Lizette Pagan filed a complaint on April 24 in the Orange County District Court that the company breached its duty to exercise reasonable care for plaintiff's safety.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that, on June 25, 2015, she visited the Florida Mall to shop in the area near defendant’s kiosk when she slipped and fell on a plastic film on the floor. Plaintiff suffered bodily injuries, resulting in pain and suffering, disability, mental anguish and medical expenses. The plaintiff holds Hair Revolution LLC responsible because the defendant allegedly negligently created a slip or trip hazard in the area where plaintiff slipped and failed to adequately warn the plaintiff of the existence of the dangerous condition.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks damages in excess of $15,000, plus interest and costs of this action. She is represented by Louis A. DeFreitas Jr. of Morgan & Morgan PA in Kissimmee.

Orange County District Court Case number 2017-CA-003677
