Assault and Premises Liability

Premises liability claims are often based around accidental dangers, such as wet floors or poorly maintained staircases. However, business owners can also be found liable for other parties’ more malicious acts. When a property owner fails to take reasonable security measures, he or she can be found partially liable for any attacks that occur on his or her premises.

If you have been the victim of a mugging or other form of assault due to a lack of security, the Tampa premises liability attorneys of Beltz & Ruth, P.A. are ready to defend your rights. We can help you pursue compensation for your medical expenses, pain and suffering, and other losses. Call our offices at 800-235-8978.

Crime Prevention

A property owner may be found liable for your injuries if you have been assaulted on his or her property and the following apply:

• The property owner knew or should have known about the risk for criminal assaults on his or her property.
• The property owner failed to take reasonable safety measures, such as providing adequate lighting, security guards, cameras, and so on.
• This negligence contributed to the likelihood that an assault would occur on the premises.
• As a direct result of being attacked, you have suffered significant injuries that merit some amount of compensation.

Recovering from assault can be very difficult physically, emotionally, and financially. A Tampa lack of security lawyer from our law offices can help you aggressively pursue the compensation you need to get your life back on track.
