BOCA RATON, FL (Boca Post) (Copyright © 2026) — A civil complaint was filed Feb. 4, 2026, in the Circuit Court of the 15th Judicial Circuit in and for Palm Beach County in Marisol Mohamed v. Boca Raton Preparatory School, Inc., and SEK Institutional Communications, Corporation, Case No. 502026CA001331XXXAMB, alleging negligence tied to an alleged slip-and-fall at a Boca Raton school property.

The complaint says Mohamed, a Broward County resident, is seeking damages in excess of $50,000, exclusive of fees and costs. The lawsuit was filed with the Palm Beach County Clerk on Feb. 4, 2026.

The plaintiff is represented by Goldman & Daszkal, P.A. of Deerfield Beach, according to the filing. No defense law firms are listed in the complaint.

According to the complaint, the alleged incident occurred on Jan. 22, 2025 at 10333 Diego Drive South, Boca Raton, in Palm Beach County. The filing alleges Boca Raton Preparatory School, Inc. owned, possessed, operated, maintained, and/or controlled the premises on that date.

Mohamed alleges she was on the property as a guest or invitee when she slipped and fell in the school pickup area of the parking lot. The complaint claims the fall was caused by “unreasonably slippery and defective painted asphalt,” which the plaintiff alleges created an unreasonably dangerous condition.

In Count I, the complaint brings a negligence claim against Boca Raton Preparatory School, Inc. under a premises liability theory. The filing alleges the school, through its employees, agents, and/or apparent agents, had actual or constructive notice of the allegedly slippery and defective painted asphalt.

The complaint further alleges the school owed Mohamed a non-delegable duty to maintain reasonably safe premises and to warn of latent dangers it knew or should have known existed. The plaintiff claims that duty was breached in several ways, including allegedly failing to maintain the premises in a reasonably safe condition, failing to train and supervise employees or agents to locate and repair hazards, failing to restrict access to the area, failing to warn of the condition, and failing to correct it.

In Count II, the complaint asserts a separate negligence claim against SEK Institutional Communications, Corporation, also described as owning, possessing, operating, maintaining, and/or controlling the same premises on Jan. 22, 2025. The filing repeats the allegation that Mohamed slipped and fell due to the same allegedly slippery and defective painted asphalt in the pickup area.

The complaint alleges Mohamed sustained injuries resulting in pain and suffering and other damages, including medical expenses and loss of earnings, and claims the losses are permanent or continuing. The plaintiff demands judgment against both defendants for damages above $50,000 and requests a jury trial on issues triable by jury.

The original complaint, Marisol Mohamed v. Boca Raton Preparatory School, Inc., and SEK Institutional Communications, Corporation, Case No. 502026CA001331XXXAMB, as filed February 4, 2026, with the Clerk of Court, can be viewed here.
