Practice Areas › Inadequate security and violent crime
In North Carolina, the owners and managers of hotels, apartments, shopping centers, hospitals, nursing homes, and other businesses have a duty to provide reasonable security for their guests, employees, and residents. While no one can guarantee the safety of a given location, owners who negligently ignore dangerous conditions may be held accountable for crimes committed on their property.
If you have been the victim of a crime because of a property owner’s failure to provide adequate security, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries. Our attorneys are knowledgeable in the law of premises liability. We have obtained compensation for victims or their families where inadequate security resulted in kidnapping, assault, rape, and homicide. We have experience:
* developing legal theories to provide civil remedies for crime victims
* working with law enforcement and security experts to analyze evidence
* working with doctors and rehabilitation experts to assess damages
* evaluating and applying insurance coverage
Not every crime has a civil remedy. If you have been injured, we invite you to call us to learn your rights.
