Manhattan Premises Liability Attorney
Any act of violence or theft against you is a violation of your basic rights and can have a lasting impact on your physical and emotional well-being. Property owners have the responsibility to provide basic security for visitors and residents of that property. When negligent security leads to an incident that results in an injury to you or a loved one, you may have the ability to pursue monetary damages from the property owner who failed to protect you.
At The Perecman Law Firm, our experienced attorneys have handled cases involving premises liability, slip and fall injuries and negligent security for years, including incidents that are similar to yours. We will pursue the recovery that you deserve from the owners of office complexes, shopping malls, parking garages, schools, apartment complexes or any facility where you have been injured due to negligent, or nonexistent, security. Year after year, we are one of the most successful firms in New York in terms of verdicts and settlements won for our clients.
Consequences of Negligent Security
When property owners fail to take proper measures to ensure the safety of those present it may lead to visitors or residents being robbed, raped, assaulted or otherwise harmed. While the assailants are the ones who actually caused the injuries, the property owners may be held liable for failing to prevent or warn against it. Negligent security may involve:
- Inadequate lighting
- Broken door locks
- Lack of security cameras or security guards
- No secure entry for apartment complexes
- Insufficient surveillance
- Lack of warning or notification about recent criminal activity
These cases are often complex. Having an experienced lawyer on your side is important to achieve a successful result. We know how to investigate and handle these cases in order to give our clients the best chance at receiving maximum compensation.
