    FAQ
    • Whom Can I Sue in a Negligent Security Claim?

      Typically, victims of an assault or attack due to negligent security would sue the property owner or responsible party for damages. However, parties you might hold accountable for your damages could include:

      • Landowners
      • Security firms
      • Apartment complex and condo associations
      • Homeowners’ associations
      • Property management businesses
      • Managers of convenience stores
      • Hotel management
      • Administrators of schools and colleges 

      In some cases, multiple parties could be liable for compensation, for example, a security firm and the property owner. Since negligent security claims can be complex, working with a lawyer can help you recover what you deserve and hold those responsible accountable for their failures.

    • Is There a Time Limit for Filing a Negligent Security Lawsuit in Fort Myers?

      Victims do not have unlimited time available to file a negligent security claim. Per Florida Statute §95.11, you can generally only file a lawsuit within four years of your injury. If your loved one died due to an assault or attack, you have two years after the death to file a wrongful death lawsuit and seek damages.

      Waiting too long could mean missing the state deadline and being unable to seek justice and compensation. Therefore, if you or a loved one got hurt in a negligent security lawsuit, speak to a lawyer before it is too late. Our premises liability attorneys can be here for you. We can determine the best timing for your lawsuit and ensure you are not missing any critical deadlines that could jeopardize your claim and compensation. 

    • What Is My Negligent Security Case Worth?

      The value of your case can depend on multiple factors, including but not limited to:

      • The scope and severity of your injuries
      • Your medical treatment costs and expected future medical expenses
      • Property loss in the incident (such as phone, clothes, tablet, jewelry, etc.)
      • Income loss and expected future loss of earnings 

      Since every negligent security claim is unique, settlement amounts can vary significantly. An experienced premises liability attorney from Morgan & Morgan can analyze your claim and determine what you are owed. 

    • Do I Need a Negligent Security Lawyer?

      Handling a negligent security claim alone can be overwhelming and exhausting, especially if you are still healing from your physical and emotional injuries. If you suffered severe injuries or a loved one died due to negligent security, working with an experienced attorney can be essential. 

      Good reasons to work with a qualified attorney from Morgan & Morgan include:
