Pembroke Pines Inadequate Security
Certain properties attract criminal activity. ATMs, banks, gas stations, apartment complexes, parking lots, dorm rooms, and other types of property are known for being the site of criminal actions. Owners of all commercial property and all property are in fact required by Florida law to offer adequate security for guests, patrons, visitors, renters, and others. When they fail to do so, anyone who is injured in a violent crime on the premises may be qualified to seek a legal claim against the property owner and their insurance company.

Who Is Liable For A Crime?If you have been the victim of a crime, it may seem obvious that the perpetrator of the attack or assault is in fact liable for the activity. However, there may also be other liable parties. In many of these cases, crimes are preventable with adequate security and property owners may be found partly liable if they do not take adequate steps to protect guests, patrons, and other visitors.
If you rent a home, the homeowner’s association, condo manager, or property owner of your apartment building may be held liable if the building has inadequate security and you are injured in an attack as a result. If your child is injured in school because the school does not have adequate security to keep out trespassers or fails to properly light parts of the campus, your family may also have a claim. These types of premises liability claims in Pembroke Pines and other communities can also arise if you are attacked while visiting a parking lot, shopping center, ATM, or any other premises.
In fact, any time you sustain serious injuries, it is a good idea to speak with a personal injury attorney. You have nothing to lose and it is a good idea to get a legal evaluation of your situation. A personal injury attorney can help you understand your rights and how much money you may be entitled to. An experienced personal injury attorney can also negotiate with insurance carriers and can pursue a legal claim if that is what you decide to do.
