Egan Explains: Negligent Security and Getting the Compensation You Deserve
Negligent security is when a property owner or manager fails to provide reasonable security measures to protect its patrons from foreseeable harm. If you have been injured due to negligent security, you may be able to file a personal injury lawsuit against the property owner or manager.
Types of Negligent Security Claims
There are many different types of negligent security claims, but some of the most common include:
- Assault and battery: This type of claim arises when a person is physically attacked on someone else’s property.
- Fraudulent misrepresentation: This type of claim arises when a property owner or manager makes false promises about the safety of their property, which leads to a person being injured.
- Premises liability: This type of claim arises when a person is injured on someone else’s property due to a dangerous condition.
