Loyda Moreno, a resident of Palm Beach County, Florida, has filed a lawsuit against El Bodegon Grocery, Inc., alleging negligence that resulted in personal injury. The complaint was officially lodged on February 19, 2025, in the Circuit Court of the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit of Florida, located in Palm Beach County. The case revolves around an incident that occurred on May 6, 2023, at the defendant's premises.
According to the complaint filed by Loyda Moreno through her attorneys at Schuler, Weisser, Zoeller, Overbeck & Baxter, P.A., El Bodegon Grocery is accused of failing to maintain a safe environment for its patrons. On the date in question, Moreno was visiting the grocery store located at 4704 Forest Hill Boulevard in West Palm Beach when she slipped and fell due to allegedly hazardous conditions. The plaintiff claims that El Bodegon Grocery did not ensure that its floors were dry and free from substances that could cause slipping. Furthermore, it is alleged that the store failed to properly train its employees to clean and inspect floors regularly and did not warn guests about existing hazards.
The legal document outlines several accusations against El Bodegon Grocery. It asserts that the grocery store breached its duty of care by not providing a hazard-free environment as would be expected under similar circumstances. As a result of this alleged negligence, Moreno sustained bodily injuries leading to pain and suffering, disability, scarring, disfigurement, mental anguish, loss of enjoyment of life, medical expenses for treatment and care, loss of earnings capacity, and aggravation of pre-existing conditions. These damages are claimed to be either permanent or ongoing.
Moreno seeks compensatory damages exceeding $50,000 from El Bodegon Grocery along with covering the costs associated with bringing this action forward. She also demands a trial by jury to resolve these issues formally within the judicial system.
Representing Loyda Moreno is attorney Michael D. Dickenson from Schuler Weisser Zoeller Overbeck & Baxter P.A., based in West Palm Beach. The Case Number is: 502025CA001492XXXAMB Div: AD.
