On a rainy South Florida afternoon, our client descended parking lot stairs in a well known, local high rise office building. Although the parking garage stairs were inside, rain water had been tracked throughout the parking garage floor and into the stairwell. Our client tripped on a step and fell fracturing his knee. We discovered that the stair treads on the top and next step were different and that the stair depth did not comply with the South Florida Building Code. The building and its insurer confidentially settled for a substantial sum.
