Fighting on Your Behalf

What You Need to Know About Negligent Security

Negligent security cases occur when a business owner is aware that their premises are vulnerable to criminal activity yet neglects to implement sufficient security measures to safeguard their customers or fails to adequately warn them about the potential risks of criminal behavior.

In the state of Florida, property owners hold a responsibility to maintain a safe premises for anyone invited on the property. Failure to provide adequate security could result in a negligent security case. For example, if you sustained injuries as a result of a crime on the property, even if the property owner did not directly participate in or orchestrate the crime, this scenario would be referred to as negligent security.
