Negligent Security

When someone is shot, stabbed, raped, assaulted, or killed at an apartment complex, hotel, bar, shopping center, parking lot, gas station, or other establishments, he or she may have a claim against the owner of that property. In Florida, every property owner has a duty to ensure that their property is safe from crime. Through aggressive litigation, the Graham Injury Firm has been successful at securing millions of dollars for numerous victims of negligent security. Our results stem from cases where we have unearthed damaging evidence. For example, in one case, the defendant fired their security guards despite knowing the lack of security in such a dangerous area would likely lead to individuals being seriously harmed. Another negligent security case involved a property owner who knew that hundreds of crimes were taking place on his property. That knowledge, and his refusal to implement adequate security protocols, led to a multi-million-dollar recovery.
