Negligent security is one of the most devastating forms of property owner negligence. When landlords, business owners, or property managers fail to provide basic safety measures, they put individuals at risk of harm from preventable criminal activities. These incidents can occur in parking lots, hotels, apartment complexes, shopping malls, or office buildings.
At LA Injury Lawyers, we believe no one should suffer because of someone else’s failure to provide a safe environment. Our attorneys, with their specialized expertise, are dedicated to holding negligent parties accountable and securing justice for victims.

Victims of negligent security may be eligible for the following types of compensation:
Economic Damages
Non-Economic Damages
Punitive Damages
In cases of egregious negligence, courts may award punitive damages to punish the property owner.
At LA Injury Lawyers, we’ll calculate the full extent of your damages to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.
While the criminal is directly responsible for their actions, property owners have a duty to prevent foreseeable risks. Failing to do so makes them liable.
At LA Injury Lawyers, we believe that everyone should have access to justice, regardless of their financial situation. That’s why we work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you don’t pay unless we win your case.
Even if you were partially responsible, California’s comparative negligence law allows you to recover damages proportionate to the property owner’s negligence.
We provide compassionate legal support for individuals facing challenges from personal injuries. Whether it’s a slip and fall, workplace injury, or medical malpractice, our team is here to fight for the justice and compensation you deserve.
Our attorneys will guide you through the entire process, from gathering evidence to filing the claim and representing you in court. Generally, you have two years from the date of the incident to file a claim. This timeline is strict, and missing the deadline can result in losing your right to seek compensation. However, certain exceptions may apply, such as cases involving minors or incapacitated individuals. It’s crucial to consult an attorney as soon as possible to ensure your case is filed on time.
Yes, you can still file a claim against the property owner or manager. Negligent security claims focus on the property owner’s failure to provide adequate safety measures, not on the identity or capture of the criminal. Your attorney will work to prove that the property owner’s negligence created an environment where the crime could occur.
The length of a negligent security case varies. A straightforward instant with clear liability and well-documented damages may settle in a few months. However, more complex cases, such as disputes over liability or significant damages, can take a year or longer to resolve. Your attorney will strive to move the case forward efficiently while ensuring you receive the best possible outcome.
Property owners are expected to address both known and foreseeable risks. For example, they must implement reasonable safety measures if there’s a history of criminal activity in the area or prior incidents on the property. A failure to do so can establish negligence, even if they claim ignorance. Your attorney will investigate and present evidence to counter such claims.
