Negligent security claims involve injuries or losses caused by insufficient security measures at a property owner’s premises, such as broken lighting, absent security personnel, or malfunctioning surveillance systems.
To establish liability, we examine the property owner’s duty to protect guests, document how the lapse led to harm, and connect that harm to the incident with credible evidence.
Negligent security is a type of premises liability claim that holds property owners or managers responsible when a predictable crime could have been prevented with reasonable security practices.
Key elements include a duty of care, a breach of that duty through inadequate security, a causal link to injuries, and damages. The process involves gathering evidence, evaluating liability, negotiating with insurers, and, if needed, pursuing court action.
