Negligent Security Lawyer

Property owners or those in charge of a premises are supposed to take measures to protect visitors. When they don’t, the injured party can hold them accountable under premises liability law. Having poor security measures or not having them at all also applies to this area of personal injury law.

If the property owner’s failure to have reasonable security measures and deterrents contributed to your attack, then you may be eligible to pursue a negligent security case. This can include security cameras, security personnel, and installing proper locks. You may also hold the owner of the premises liable if they had security measures, but they were broken, uninstalled, or weren’t working. The owner should have taken reasonable steps to know about the status of their security features and fix any issues in a timely manner.

Other examples of places where negligent security can result in someone getting hurt include apartment buildings, the workplace, schools, and places of mass transit. Even a parking lot that lacks adequate lighting can become a dangerous place. If the incident that resulted in your injuries occurred on private property, you should still reach out to a negligent security lawyer. They’ll take a look at the laws of the state you’re in and the unique circumstances of your case to help you find the best way to proceed.

When you have an experienced negligent security attorney representing your rights, you can trust that they’re going to fight for your best interests. At Thomas Law Offices, we understand how devastating an attack can be—and how the injuries and damages can continue to affect you.

The injuries you sustained may require medical treatment and time to heal. During this period, you’re likely not going to be able to work or live your life as you did before the incident. On top of this, you’re processing the emotional injuries you suffered as well. We’ll help you hold the property owner accountable for their inadequate security and file a negligent security lawsuit.

The first part of building you a strong negligent security case is to find out what happened. We’ll get your account of the story, identify the responsible parties, and use all available avenues to see how the incident affected you. This includes any significant injuries you sustained and the full economic and noneconomic damages of the incident.

Our negligent security lawyers know what questions to ask. We’ll seek the answers to the following:

• Did the incident occur on private, public, or commercial property?
• Does the property have a history of criminal activity occurring on the premises?
• Did the property have proper security measures?
• What type of crime occurred and when did it happen?
• Was a security guard supposed to be on duty and they weren’t there?
• Did a business owner fail to fix security cameras?
• What were the medical costs of your injuries?
• Did the property owner fail to prevent foreseeable crimes?

You can also seek legal aid from negligent security attorneys if your loved one was a victim of a crime. If a loved one was on someone else’s property and an attack occurred that resulted in death, our lawyers can help you seek justice with a wrongful death lawsuit.

Our lawyers will also help you handle any questions or communications with insurance adjusters. It’s common for people injured on another’s property to receive a call from an insurance adjuster to get a statement of what happened. However, the adjuster is likely seeking information that will help the insurance company they represent protect their bottom line. The best way to make sure you don’t provide information that could be used against you is to have a negligent security lawyer speak on your behalf.

When you’re healing physical and emotional injuries and aren’t able to work, you may start to worry about your finances. You shouldn’t have to worry about how you’ll support your family and yourself. We’ll fight for you to get fair compensation so you can get the recovery you deserve.
