Negligent Security
Property owners have the duty to maintain and secure their property so that it does not present an undue danger to the physical well-being of people who come onto the property for business or social purposes. The firm of Schuler, Halvorson & Weisser, P.A. represents individuals who are crime victims who suffer robberies, head trauma, brutal attacks and sexual assaults because of a property owner’s negligence in hotels, supermarkets, malls, and other commercial properties because of negligent security. This negligence could include inadequate lighting, parking lot surveillance, broken or disabled locks at security entrances, or hotel security.
If a business is in a high crime area and criminal conduct of a third party is foreseeable, the property owner has a duty to prevent injuries to invitees if it reasonably appears or should appear to them that other innocent persons may be injured on the property. They must maintain the property in a safe manner to protect people from dangerous situations.
