Negligent Security FAQ
Negligent security claims typically argue that a property owner or business failed to implement proper security measures, allowing a criminal act to occur.
- Some common instances of inadequate security are:
Not installing or maintaining proper lighting - Ignoring broken locks, doors, gates, or fencing
- Failing to install surveillance cameras on the premises
- Ignoring security warnings, alerts, or threats
- Neglecting to enhance security measures despite repeated crimes
- Failing to alert visitors about potential dangers
Landowners aren’t liable for every crime committed on their property. Liability arises when it can be proven that the property owner, business, or event sponsor didn’t exercise reasonable care.
In a negligent security case, the victim needs to show that:
- They were an authorized tenant, customer, or guest on the premises
- The defendant had a legal or contractual duty to maintain a reasonably safe environment
- The defendant’s negligence led to a lack of protection from foreseeable criminal activities
- Adequate security measures from the defendant could have prevented the crime
The victim suffered harm due to the negligence inflicted by a third party
Liability for inadequate or negligent security extends to various settings, including:
- Shopping centers
- Hotels and motels
- Apartment complexes
- College campuses
- Bars and nightclubs
- Restaurants
- Concert venues
- Sports stadiums
- Office buildings
- MARTA stations
Many negligent security attorneys, including Schneider Williamson Car Accident & Personal Injury Attorneys, work on a contingency fee basis. This means we only get paid if you win your case.
