Negligent security occurs when a business or private property owner fails to provide a reasonable and adequate level of security for customers or visitors on the premises.

We strive to develop unique strategies for each case we are assigned to better serve our clients and maximize their chances of recovering compensation for their injuries.

Here are some examples of inadequate or negligent security for which a lawsuit may be appropriate:

  • Workplace violence causing injuries sometimes fatal injuries involving homicide
  • Attacks, rapes, or assaults at hotels due to negligently allowing intruders access past the front desk to guest rooms or other inadequate security measures
  • Assaults including attacks at apartment complexes due to insufficient lighting and security safeguards
  • Bars, restaurants, and clubs not providing proper private security, including not removing other guests who are intoxicated or violent
  • Parking garages and parking lots failing to provide adequate security or sufficient lighting
  • Theaters, arenas and sports stadiums failing to provide adequate security leading to fights or assaults including failing to properly screen guests
  • Schools, universities and day care centers negligently providing adequate security

There are many ways a property owner can protect people from criminal activity, and the law may hold them responsible especially if the property owner knew or should have known of the risk. Some simple measures for security may include: hiring qualified employees to perform security and performing background checks on employees; training employees to better prevent security breaches that may lead to assaults; providing proper locks and gates; providing security cameras; providing proper lighting and other deterrents to prevent criminal activity.
