A negligent security claim typically asks whether a property owner owed a duty to protect visitors, whether that duty was breached, and whether the breach caused your injuries.
Evidence may include security camera footage, incident reports, maintenance records, and witness statements.
Negligent security occurs when a business or property owner fails to implement reasonable safety measures, leading to a crime or injury on the premises.
To succeed, a claim typically requires proving duty, breach, causation, and damages, followed by steps such as investigation, filing, negotiation, and, when needed, litigation.
This glossary explains the main terms used in negligent security cases.
A property owner or business has a duty to keep premises reasonably safe for customers and visitors.
A lapse or failure to implement reasonable security measures that contributes to an injury.

Compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other losses.
