Security Negligence
Definition:
Property owners have the responsibility to ensure safety
on and around their property. Under premises liability law, security
negligence occurs when a property owner knows of hazardous or unsafe
conditions on the property, but fails to correct the conditions in order
to prevent injuries. When there is security negligence or
dangerous property conditions, it could lead to serious injury or death.
Security negligence can occur in shopping malls, public parking garages,
office buildings and anywhere else security arrangements could be made.
Consequences of Security Negligence:
Security negligence claims are classified as premises liability. A property owner can neglect security by keeping parking lots, elevators, dressing rooms and other areas unmonitored. As a result, some guests could be sexually assaulted or seriously injured. Negligent security can take place at public or private establishments, such as bars, hotels, college campuses and apartment buildings.What a Lawyer can do for you:
