Teresa Mattison has filed a lawsuit against K Laundromat, HHC Holdings LLC, and an unidentified party referred to as John Doe, following a slip-and-fall incident that allegedly resulted in severe injuries. The complaint was lodged on March 24, 2025, in the Court of Common Pleas of Delaware County, Pennsylvania. The plaintiff accuses the defendants of negligence related to premises liability at a laundromat located in Upper Darby.
According to the details laid out in the complaint, Teresa Mattison was legally on the premises of K Laundromat on July 9, 2023, when she slipped and fell due to a hazardous substance on the floor. The plaintiff claims that this accident was caused by the negligence and carelessness of K Laundromat and HHC Holdings LLC, who are responsible for maintaining safe conditions at the property. The complaint outlines several failures on the part of these entities, including not properly monitoring or cleaning the premises for dangerous conditions and failing to provide adequate warnings about potential hazards.
The document further accuses both companies of not complying with relevant building codes and safety regulations. Additionally, John Doe is named as a fictitious defendant representing an unknown party potentially responsible for managing or owning the property at the time of the incident. The plaintiff asserts that despite diligent efforts to identify this individual or entity, their true identity remains unknown.
Mattison's injuries from this incident are described as severe and permanent, affecting her thoracic and lumbar regions with disc bulges and protrusions among other complications. These injuries have allegedly led to significant pain and suffering as well as financial losses due to medical expenses and diminished earning capacity. In light of these damages, Mattison seeks compensation exceeding $50,000 from each defendant along with attorney fees and any additional relief deemed appropriate by the court.
Representing Teresa Mattison is Joseph Lavin from Kwartler Manus LLC. The case is presided over by judges within Delaware County's Civil Trial Division under Case ID: CV2025002679.
