I want your opions on this. We plowed & shoveled on Jan 1,5,6. I got a call yesterday (8) that someone had sliped and fallen Jan 4. We were not on the site that day, the contract, written by client, say plow & shovel at 3", or when called, we weren't called. I pulled the newspaper from the two days after said a trace on Jan 3, 2" on Jan 4. We don't salt the site at all, advised them in fall about ice control on walks, never authorized to do so. I talked to purchasing director today, said I don't understand how I'm responsible, as I wasn't authorized to do anything for several days before accident, said I was listed because I was the snowplowing contractor. This company has their own maintenance people tha do shovel & salt walks, when we don't. I forwarded all info to my insurance agent, know I'm covered, just I don't think I'm liable. I'm defininly droping them as clients ASAP. What do you guys think?
