Were You Attacked on Someone Else's Property?
When property owners know that their customers or residents are in danger of assaults and other attacks, they have some responsibility to protect or warn them. In some cases, they can be found legally negligent if they do not install security systems or hire trained security personnel.
At the law firm of Carman & Bevington in Brandon, Florida, we help our clients pursue fair compensation for injuries caused by negligent security at retail stores, restaurants and other public venues in the Tampa Bay area. To schedule a free consultation, contact us today. You will not pay us a dime unless we help you obtain compensation.
Understanding Property Owners' Safety and Security Obligations
Not all property owners, even those who serve the general public, are necessarily expected to take security measures. However, when property owners know their premises are dangerous because of past incidents in the area or other factors, they should respond appropriately.
Judges and juries in Florida have awarded compensation to the families of homicide victims and to the victims of assaults and sexual assaults in locations such as:
- Apartment complexes
- Mall and shopping center parking lots
- Movie theaters
- Bars and nightclubs
If you've been attacked on someone else's property, our attorneys will analyze the facts of your case and give you honest advice on whether we believe you have a premises liability claim for compensation from the property owner for your injuries.
We are dedicated to doing whatever it takes to hold negligent parties responsible for the full and fair compensation our clients deserve. Contact us to discuss your case with an experienced personal injury trial lawyer.
