Negligent Security Lawyers Serving Miami, Broward County, Surrounding Areas

Security systems and staff are put in place to prevent violence, theft, and vandalism in areas where citizens live, work, and conduct their day-to-day activities. Shopping malls, apartment buildings, parking lots, and hotels are often monitored by security personnel to prevent crime and provide a sense of security for people in those areas. When injuries occur as a direct result of inattentive or unprepared security staff or inadequate security systems, victims may be eligible to file a premises liability lawsuit on the grounds of negligent security.

As experienced negligent security attorneys, the lawyers at the Miami and Broward-area law firm of Downs Brill and Whitehead have assisted many victims and their families obtain compensation from the party or parties responsible for their injuries.  If you have suffered a personal injury due to negligent security, please do not hesitate to contact our practice today.

Premises Owners’ Obligation to Guests

Property owners have a legal responsibility to provide a reasonably safe environment for patrons or guests. They are required to take note of dangerous conditions on their property and warn patrons or guests of any dangers known by them but not obvious to the guest. Owners are also responsible for correcting dangerous circumstances that could lead to the injury of a guest.

Consequences of Negligent Security

Negligent security can fail to prevent—and, in some circumstances, even encourage—criminals to take advantage of citizens left vulnerable to crime. When innocent people are victimized in places where security patrols supposed to provide safety and peace of mind, the results can be devastating. Examples of possible crime from inadequate security are:

  • Robbery
  • Sexual assault
  • Homicide
  • Theft
  • Grand theft auto
  • Property damage
  • Vandalism

Other injuries can occur from inadequate warning of unsafe circumstances that could lead to slip and fall injuries, or other hazards.  Our negligent security lawyers serving Miami, Palm Beach, and surrounding areas handle the full range of premises liability cases.
