A resident of Palm Beach County has filed a lawsuit against a local property management company, alleging negligence after suffering injuries from a fall on their premises. Richard Fliegel initiated the complaint against Phoenix Management Services, Inc., in the Circuit Court of the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit in Palm Beach County, Florida, on October 8, 2024.
The case revolves around an incident that occurred on March 12, 2024, when Fliegel was visiting a property managed by Phoenix Management Services located at Brisata Circle in Boynton Beach. As a business invitee on the premises, Fliegel claims he tripped and fell due to an uneven and unlevel asphalt surface. The complaint asserts that Phoenix Management Services had a duty to maintain safe conditions for visitors and failed to do so.
According to the allegations detailed in the court documents, Phoenix Management Services is accused of several lapses in their responsibilities. These include failing to exercise due care in maintaining the premises safely, neglecting to inspect and repair hazardous conditions such as the uneven asphalt surface, and not warning visitors about potential dangers. The plaintiff argues that these failures constitute negligence on the part of Phoenix Management Services.
Fliegel's complaint outlines various damages resulting from his fall. He reports suffering bodily injury accompanied by pain and suffering, disability, disfigurement, mental anguish, and loss of enjoyment of life. Additionally, he cites expenses related to hospitalization and medical care as well as a diminished capacity to earn income as consequences of his injuries. The lawsuit seeks damages exceeding $50,000 along with any other relief deemed appropriate by the court.
Representing Richard Fliegel is attorney Ashley Eagle from Keller Swan PLLC based in Jupiter, Florida. The case has been assigned Case Number 502024CA009678XXXAMB.
