Connecticut Negligent Security Attorney

The basic concept in a negligent security lawsuit is that a private or public property owner has a legal duty to make sure the property does not present an undue danger to the physical well-being of people who come onto the property for business or social purposes.

This duty includes the duty to provide a secure environment for customers, patrons and tenants.

If an assault occurs on private property, and if poor security conditions made it possible for the assault to occur, then it may be possible to bring a private civil lawsuit against the property owner for negligent security.

Examples of poor security conditions include lack of security lighting, the location of a business establishment in a known high-crime area without sufficient security measures, or a lack of security personnel or security cameras in an area known to have a high crime rate.
