Who May Be Eligible to File a Negligent Security Case?

To determine whether you may be eligible to pursue legal action, our legal team needs to review the circumstances that caused your injuries. Typically, negligent security cases are filed by victims of some type of crime who had a legal right to be on a commercial or private property. These victims could be:

If a trespasser was injured on private or business property, it is unlikely he or she would have a claim.

In these cases, the burden of proof is on the plaintiff, so in order to establish that a property owner was negligent, there are certain elements you or your attorney need to prove:

Duty of Care

You must prove that you had a legal right to be on the property and the owner had a legal obligation to maintain his or her property, including providing adequate security, to prevent harm to anyone legally permitted on the premises.

Duty of Care Not Upheld

What is deemed necessary to maintain safe premises can vary depending on the property and the location. For example, in an unsafe area, a property owner might have failed in his or her duty of care if there was no physical security on the property or the lighting was not sufficient to ward off would-be trespassers or criminals.

Causal Link

Proving the connection between the failure to uphold a duty of care and the injuries you sustained is key. For example, if the owner had employed a security guard, you might not have suffered an assault by a criminal who trespassed on the property.

Damages

You must have been injured and suffered damages as a result of the property owner’s negligence. For example, if you were attacked in a hotel parking lot, your damages could help cover your medical bills, lost wages and more.

Our experienced Prescott negligent security attorneys have been pursuing compensation for injury victims for almost 30 years, and we know what it takes to build a strong argument on your behalf. We are prepared to review the circumstances that caused your injuries and determine if you may have a case.

How Much Compensation Could I Receive?

The value of each case is unique so the compensation amount you could be eligible to receive will depend on the extent of your injuries, how much time you may have missed from work due to your injuries, and whether you are able to return to your previous job after your recovery time, among other factors.

Contact our knowledgeable attorneys today to learn more about how we accurately value our clients claims to help achieve maximum compensation for their injuries. In general, the types of compensation we may be able to seek for you include:

What is Negligent Security?

A property owner has a legal obligation to take active steps to help ensure the premises are reasonably safe for any customers or other legal invitees who enter the property. An important part of ensuring there is adequate security includes taking into consideration where the property is located, how well lit the area is and more. Some steps that an owner can take to maintain adequate security might include:

If a property owner fails in this duty and a customer or other legal invitee is injured, the owner could be held liable for negligent security.

Why Should I Consider Hiring a Lawyer?

After an incident, you should expect the insurance company to reach out to ask about what happened. It is important to note that no matter how friendly an insurer may sound on the phone, his or her ultimate goal is not to give you money, because it is not in the best interest of the insurance company. An insurer will always try to find ways to discredit you by saying that your injuries are non-existent or not as severe as you claim, or by trying to offer you a lowball settlement to avoid a larger payout.

Our experienced Prescott negligent security lawyers consider multiple factors when determining the value of a potential claim. For example, we may investigate the general safety of the location, the premises where you were injured, and what other security deficiencies may exist on the property. If there is any camera footage, we would also want to review that for potential evidence.

I felt they were more my friends than my personal injury lawyer and that isn't something you're taught it's something you have inside. If I ever needed a lawyer again Phillips Law Group Injury Lawyers would be my only choice. I can't recommend them enough. They are professional on every level and compassionate throughout. Thank you for everything.

When in pain because of an accident all you want to do is focus on getting better and that is what did thanks to this firm. My family and I were set up with a Dr and Chiro right away. The treatment we received was great. I am extremely thankful for all the help we received and the outcome on the cases. Thanks to everyone involved on my case. A special thanks the intake specialist Rosalba who was very kind on the phone when I first called. I highly recommend this firm to anyone, they treat you like family.

Erika A.

I am so thankful for Ruthann and Maria. They both were amazing throughout the process. When Maria took over my case, I felt like I was being treated with empathy about my pain and experiences while treating. She also made sure to answer my questions. Maria always responded to my communication attempts and answered questions I had as they came up. She helped me with things I needed in regards to my case and helped ease the anxiety as bills piled up and my injuries were still being treated. I was able to contact her as I was treating and she helped find providers closer to my home to make it more accommodating for me. This helped me juggle work...

What can I say about Phillips Law group. I was involved in a major car accident and sustained injuries. I looked up for Law Firms in Arizona and stumbled across Phillips Law Group. I decided to give them a call about my accident, and they were very respectful and took in my case immediately. They assigned me Tim LeDuc to represent me. From the beginning, he was very responsive and made sure to give me the proper care I deserved from this accident. Him and his team fought tooth and nail to give me the best settlement I deserved. I am so thankful, and I highly recommend Phillips Law Group to represent anyone who has been in any accident and...

My case closed yesterday and I RAN to make this review because of how exceptional my experience has been with Phillips Law Group! I received the best settlement I could've hoped for and am extremely happy with the outcome; but I especially wanted to shout out and give praise to Julianna, the Litigation Paralegal on my case. From the moment Julianna was assigned to my case almost two years ago, until the completion of the settlement process yesterday, Julianna's commitment to exceptional customer service, clear communication, and unwavering support truly stood out. I had so many questions -- from the legal process, to where to seek medical treatment, to questions about medical bills, to the negotiation process, and more --...
