A serious legal battle is unfolding as a Pennsylvania couple takes on a prominent country club over alleged negligence. The lawsuit, filed by Alexander and Mary Lee Spada in the Court of Common Pleas of Delaware County on February 17, 2026, accuses Radnor Valley Country Club of failing to maintain safe premises, resulting in severe injuries to Mr. Spada.
The complaint stems from an incident on November 6, 2024, when Alexander Spada was visiting the Radnor Valley Country Club in Villanova, Pennsylvania. According to the lawsuit, while descending outdoor steps at the club, one of the steps collapsed under him, causing him to fall and sustain significant injuries. The plaintiffs argue that the country club had a duty to ensure their premises were safe for patrons but failed to do so. “Defendant’s acts and omissions constituted negligence,” states the complaint, which outlines several alleged failures by the club including not inspecting or maintaining the steps properly and not warning visitors about potential hazards.
The plaintiffs are seeking compensatory and consequential damages exceeding $50,000. They claim that Mr. Spada has suffered permanent injuries including a concussion and damage to his neck, back, and shoulders. Additionally, they assert that these injuries have led to ongoing pain and suffering as well as financial burdens due to medical expenses and loss of income. Furthermore, Mrs. Spada has filed a claim for loss of consortium due to her husband’s injuries impacting their marital relationship.
Represented by Brent Wieand and Jeffrey Parker from Wieand Law Firm LLC based in Philadelphia, the Spadas are demanding a jury trial. They are also seeking interest on damages awarded along with costs of suit and any other relief deemed appropriate by the court.
The case is being overseen by judges at the Court of Common Pleas in Delaware County under Case No., which is yet unspecified in public records.
