Negligent security covers a variety of negligent or reckless situations. However, in essence, negligent security falls into two categories: no security measures in place when there should have been, or inadequate security.

Examples of negligent security:

  • Inadequate lighting
  • Lack of or malfunctioning locks, fencing, or gates
  • Lack of or malfunctioning video cameras
  • Lack of or malfunctioning alarms or other warnings
  • Failure to have security personnel
  • Security personnel that acted negligent, reckless or caused intentional harm
  • Failure to have metal detectors
  • Inadequate security personnel
  • Lack of sufficient policies and procedures
  • Improperly trained security personnel

In the eyes of the law, property owners and event operators have a duty to guard against possible risks and dangers. You only need to turn on the news to see that violence can happen just about anywhere:

  • Residential and commercial buildings, private or public
  • Parking lots and structures
  • Schools and colleges
  • Hospitals and health clinics
  • Nightclubs, bars, and restaurants
  • Concerts and entertainment events
  • Amusement parks
  • Political events
  • Sporting events
  • Hotels
  • Shopping Malls
  • Nursing homes
  • And many others.

Negligent security cases are often complex because there can be more than one defendant:

  • Property owners
  • Some leasing a property
  • Third party security operators,
  • Event producers and organizers
  • Federal, state or municipal governments

Not only can gathering evidence be difficult, but determining the defendants, their various contracts, and their respective policies and procedures can be daunting too.
