Have you been hurt because of negligent security? Unfortunately, many people throughout Florida are hurt every day in incidents that could have been avoided with adequate security. Owners of public places, as well as hospitals, have an obligation to make sure adequate security is in place if there have been safety issues in the past. If they fail to do so and you become injured or the victim of crime, you need a Miami personal injury lawyer to represent you. At Leighton Law, we’ll make sure your rights are protected and get you the compensation you deserve to cover medical bills, pain and suffering and out-of-pocket expenses.

What is a Case of Negligent Security?

If a property owner, hospital, nursing home or any other type of business fails to fulfill their duty to keep you safe or warn you of potentially dangerous conditions, they may be held legally liable. This is particularly true if there is a history of criminal activity in the area or past incidents. If the business has failed to take steps like hiring well-trained security guards or installing sufficient lighting on the premises, we’ll help you get compensation. We handle a wide range of negligent security cases, including:
Victims of crime such as battery, assault and rape
Inadequate surveillance or lighting in the parking lot
Negligent hiring practices, whether the security guards were not trained properly or actually caused the harm
Attacks on the property in an elevator or stairwell
Landlord liability cases
Negligent assisted living or nursing home security

Negligent security at a college campus, shopping mall, stadium, theme park or ATM kiosk
