FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is negligent security?
Negligent security refers to the failure of property owners or managers to provide adequate security measures to protect visitors or tenants from foreseeable harm. This can include inadequate lighting, malfunctioning security cameras, lack of proper locks, or insufficient security personnel.
What types of incidents fall under negligent security claims?
Negligent security claims can arise from a wide range of incidents. This includes assaults, robberies, burglaries, sexual assaults, poor lighting, lack of security guards, shootings, stabbings, and other violent crimes that occur due to inadequate security measures on the premises.
How long do I have to file a negligent security claim?
The statute of limitations for filing a negligent security claim typically ranges from one to two years from the date of the incident. However, this depends on the specific circumstances of the case. Missing the statute of limitations could result in losing your right to seek compensation for your injuries and losses related to the negligent security incident.
