Negligent Security Attorneys in Miami
Premises Liability Lawyers Serving in South Florida and Nationwide
When you visit someone else’s property or business, such as a restaurant or store, you have a right to expect that they have implemented all required safety and security protocols to keep you safe. This is especially true for places like nightclubs, bars, and sports arenas, where the risk of a violent attack or assault is heightened – and unfortunately, many of the property owners for these places do not have enough security measures in place to protect their patrons.
As a well-known Miami trial firm with more than 30 years spent serving the community, Grossman Roth Yaffa Cohen can provide skilled and compassionate assistance with your negligent security claim. Negligent security cases are a form of premises liability litigation, and you may be eligible for compensation if you were assaulted, injured, robbed, raped, or harmed in any other manner as a direct result of malfunctioning or inadequate security.
For more information, please contact our team today at (866) 629-1061 and schedule a free consultation. We serve clients in Miami and South Florida as well as nationwide.
What Is a Negligent Security Claim?
Landowners, managers, security companies and others who oversee a business location have a responsibility to protect visitors and people using their property, and even the area surrounding that property. After a violent attack or assault happens on their premises, these individuals or organizations may be considered partially responsible for the incident. Negligent security settlements and other positive outcomes for victims are possible when the victims and their attorneys can prove that an individual or entity failed to fulfill their protective duty.
For example, the victim of assault in a poorly-lit parking lot or a shooting at a hotel may have a strong negligent security case against the operators of those properties. The same can be said for someone attacked in a section of a mall, sporting event, or office hallway.
