A safety supervisor alleged a locker-room fall at 1:00 p.m. on October 20, 2025, but did not report the event until weeks later and after the employment relationship had ended. Video from the locker-room entrances showed that the claimant never entered during the relevant time, and employer records established that the claimant did not work that day.
Lois Law Firm Senior Associate Scott A. Grossman expanded the investigation beyond video. Employer interviews led to laptop connection records and key-card data, while three witnesses were thoroughly prepared for trial. Only three days before testimony—after the October 20 video had been disclosed—the claimant changed the alleged accident date to October 21. Although video from the new date had been overwritten, the team obtained key-card data showing that the claimant still did not enter the locker room at the times described.
At trial, the LOIS team demonstrated that the date change followed disclosure of the contrary video, that the reporting method was inconsistent with the claimant’s own safety responsibilities, and that digital access records contradicted the evolving testimony. The claim was disallowed. The matter reflects the full LOIS approach: creative investigation, forceful advocacy, professional witness preparation, and service focused on protecting the client from unsupported exposure.
