A client calls and tells you that they had to remove their shoes to pass through a TSA checkpoint. The floor was slippery and they fell and broke their knee requiring surgery. What do you do? This CLE course will take you from intake through trial in a federal tort claims act (FTCA) slip and fall lawsuit in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania and the Third Circuit.

The presenter will highlight cases to take and cases to turn down. FTCA cases have an unnerving number of pitfalls that lurk for the unwary practitioner. However, you are litigating against the government, which has its benefits! The presenter will provide key filings and Orders addressing sovereign immunity as it applies to FTCA as part of the included materials.
