A slip-and-fall incident at a residential complex has led to a legal battle, with the plaintiff alleging negligence on the part of the property management. Shawn Brown filed a complaint against Lawrence Hill Associates, LLC, doing business as Lawrence Hill Apartments, in the Court of Common Pleas of Delaware County on April 17, 2025. The lawsuit stems from an incident that occurred on January 19, 2024, when Brown claims he slipped and fell due to icy conditions in the parking lot of the apartment complex.

The plaintiff, Shawn Brown, asserts that Lawrence Hill Associates failed in their duty to maintain safe premises for residents and visitors. According to the complaint, Brown was legally on the premises when he encountered unsafe conditions that led to his fall. The lawsuit details multiple alleged failures by Lawrence Hill Associates, including not properly designing or maintaining walkways and failing to provide adequate warnings about potential hazards. The complaint states that these oversights resulted in severe and permanent injuries for Brown.

Brown's attorney, Marc F. Greenfield of Spear, Greenfield, Richman, Weitz & Taggart P.C., argues that Lawrence Hill Associates' negligence directly caused Brown's injuries. The legal filing accuses the defendant of failing to comply with building codes and safety regulations and disregarding known dangerous conditions on their property. As a result of these alleged failures, Brown claims he has suffered significant physical and emotional harm, as well as financial losses due to medical expenses and reduced earning capacity.

In seeking justice through this lawsuit, Shawn Brown is requesting damages not exceeding $50,000. This amount aims to cover medical costs beyond insurance coverage and compensate for pain and suffering resulting from his injuries. Additionally, Brown seeks any other relief deemed necessary by the court to address his grievances against Lawrence Hill Associates.

Representing Shawn Brown is attorney Marc F. Greenfield from Spear, Greenfield, Richman, Weitz & Taggart P.C., while details regarding defense counsel remain unspecified in the document. The case is being heard in Delaware County under Case ID 04-17-2025.
