Boguslawski filed suit in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Salem County, proving that the salon was negligent in failing to safely maintain their premises to avoid hazards, and won the client a $525,000 settlement.

For treatment, she underwent left total hip arthroplasty and completed several courses of physical therapy to improve her condition. Davis, Saperstein & Salomon, P.C. Partner Patricia Z. Boguslawski won our client a settlement for her injuries, pain & suffering.
Settlements are often limited by the total available insurance coverage. Insurance company adjusters and their lawyers often defend cases by claiming that a client was negligent and could have avoided being injured by arguing comparative negligence on the part of an injured client; or that their pain and suffering was caused by pre-existing medical conditions or prior injuries. Despite those defenses, the Davis, Saperstein & Salomon, PC lawyers won their client’s injury claim. Each client’s case is unique. Results may differ because of different facts, circumstances and available insurance coverage.
