| Restaurants, night clubs, grocery stores, retail malls – all businesses that depend on customer traffic have a responsibility to provide a safe and secure environment for their clientele. Security staff, surveillance cameras and lighting are the standard precautions, but when a business lacks any or all of these elements, customers can find themselves victims of robberies, assaults and other crimes.
Hotels, motels, apartment complexes and other housing properties can present potentially dangerous scenarios for their customers/residents when proper security measures are found lacking. In all cases, failing to disclose security risks, such as previous on-site criminal activity, proximity to high-crime areas, or known problems with lighting and/or surveillance cameras, deepens a property owner’s liability. If you fall victim to any accident or crime due to an establishment’s negligent security, you are entitled to compensation for your pain, suffering and losses.
Sometimes, logistics create dangerous environments. For example, inadequate parking may force patrons into unsafe and hazardous situations by parking extreme distances from the establishment and/or parking in unauthorized locations. Whether it’s premise liability or inadequate security, you should not have to fear for your safety when patronizing an establishment. Property owners are responsible for injuries and losses that result from these scenarios and you are entitled to compensation if you become a victim.
