RETAIL AND PREMISES LIABILITY
Practice Group Leader: Barry Clifford Snyder
On its inception
over a decade ago,
the firm primarily
focused on defense
of retail and premises
liability matters. As
a result of its
retention as primary
defense counsel
for the world’s
largest retailer,
the firm and its
attorneys were
able to take over
300 cases to jury
trial. Our
trial focus has
expanded considerably,
but the wealth
of experience remains
in this area of
litigation.
In addition to
the run-of-the-mill
slip and fall or
trip and fall cases,
we defend false
imprisonment/arrest
claims, falling
merchandise, product
liability, and
pharmacy malpractice
matters. We
are experienced
also in first amendment
claims brought
by petitioners
on property and
have successfully
obtained injunctive
relief precluding
or limiting access.
Our most enjoyable
service in this
area deals with
preventative law
counseling. We
are often asked
to review leases,
employment agreements
or employee termination
documents, handbooks
and policy/procedure
manuals for the
clients. Early
attention to these
matters will often
eliminate the needs
for our legal services
in the future on
litigated matters.
