Negligent Security
When an assault, rape or murder occurs on private pro-property, the owner may be liable for failure to provide adequate security. Mall and shopping center operators, apartment and residential rental housing owners, hotels and motels, restaurants, bars and private clubs have a duty to implement reasonable and ordinary security measures for the protection of customers, residents and employees from crime when necessary. For 40 years, Babbitt, Johnson, Osborne & Le Clainche has provided successful representation of crime victims in negligent security cases in malls, hospitals and private clubs.
