Negligent Security

Negligent security cases can involve some of the most severe injuries.  These injuries may include brain damage, physical beating, death, rape, murder or other serious life-changing events or injuries.

Apartment complexes, businesses and other facilities have an obligation to provide reasonable security measures that a reasonable person would provide under similar circumstances.  If an apartment complex or business knows that there is a dangerous condition or dangerous circumstances surrounding a property, they are obligated under the law to take reasonable steps to ensure the safety of people who directly and indirectly use their property.  If the business or owner does not take these steps, a lawsuit can be filed against them for negligent security. However the viability of the case strongly depends on the individual facts involved and a rigorous amount of investigation which must be conducted as soon as possible after the event.
