When you go out to a bar, restaurant or club the last thing you expect is to be injured, mugged, or assaulted.

These types of incidents seem to center around high traffic places like the numerous clubsand restaurants off of the 10 freeway between Sunset Ave. & Barranca.

What Exactly Is Negligent Security?

Negligent security can include many types of incidents:

• Lack of adequate security personnel, resulting in a fight or assault that could’ve been prevented
• Incompetent or inadequately trained security personnel
• Lack of proper lighting
• Lack of security cameras
• Inadequate security patrols
• Failure to protect against foreseeable harm
• Lack of security alarms
• Overzealous & aggressive security guards or bouncers
• Lack of proper locks on windows and doors

Failure to Protect Against Criminal Acts

According to California law, property owners in Covina & West Covina are negligent if they failed to take reasonable steps to secure their property against foreseeable criminal acts by third parties. If there has been a history of assaults, muggings, or bar fights in the establishment or the surrounding area, property owners may be obligated to provide enhanced security. The threat of criminal activity in these cases could be considered foreseeable.

Negligent Security Claims

If you have been injured in a criminal attack or assault on someone else’s property or at work, you may be able to recover compensation for your medical bills, lost income, and more from the property or business owner or the entity in control of the property. Property and business owners have a duty to provide adequate protection from criminal attacks. Although you may have a good personal injury case against the person who personally attacked you, your chances of actually collecting the money are much better when you pursue a negligent security lawsuit.
