Theresa J. Calcaterra has filed a lawsuit against T-Mobile USA, Inc., alleging negligence that resulted in her injury at one of their stores. The complaint was filed on October 15, 2024, in the Circuit Court of Palm Beach County, Florida. Calcaterra claims that she suffered significant injuries due to unlevel flooring at a T-Mobile store and is seeking damages exceeding $50,000.
According to the complaint, on March 7, 2024, Calcaterra visited a T-Mobile store located at 20642 State Road 7, #M5 in Boca Raton, Florida. As an invitee seeking assistance with her cell phone, she tripped and fell on unlevel flooring while exiting the store. This incident allegedly caused her serious injury. The lawsuit accuses T-Mobile of failing to maintain safe conditions within their premises and neglecting their duty to warn customers about potential hazards.
The plaintiff's legal team argues that T-Mobile had exclusive control over the store and was responsible for its maintenance. They assert that the company breached its non-delegable duty by not ensuring the safety of common areas and failing to properly warn invitees of any known or hidden dangers. The complaint highlights several points where T-Mobile allegedly failed: maintaining common areas safely, warning customers about dangers, and keeping the floor in a safe condition.
As a result of these alleged failures by T-Mobile, Calcaterra claims she sustained injuries affecting her body and extremities, exacerbated pre-existing conditions, endured pain and mental anguish, and faced an inability to lead a normal life—consequences she believes are permanent and ongoing. Furthermore, she has incurred medical expenses for treating her injuries and anticipates further costs in the future.
Calcaterra seeks judgment for damages exceeding $50,000 along with coverage for legal costs and demands a jury trial for all triable issues. Her legal representation is provided by The South Florida Injury Law Firm with attorneys Jeffrey M. Braxton, Robert H. Stein, and Craig A. Posner leading her case.
