Negligent Security

When a victim has been stabbed or shot, the assailant is often sent to jail and pursued in a criminal case. What many people do not know is that the property or business where the shooting took place can also be held liable through a civil case.

In cases where victims were shot due to negligent security from a business owner or property manager, Victims and their families should seek the representation of a personal injury attorney to prove that the business or property should have been aware of any criminal action in the area and could have enacted measures to prevent it.

    I had a great experience with Brooks Injury. They were very professional and the duo of James and Sara were amazing. James was always honest with me in what to expect. He fought hard for me, and made me feel like he was on my side. Sara … More is also the best, she always updated me on my case, she answered every question, always got back to me in a timely manner. I appreciate them both tremendously. Thank you again, James and Sara.

    My experience with The Brooks Law firm was awesome. During the whole process, I felt like my case was the most important case they had, (Of course I know they had lots of other cases), but that's how they made me feel. I was always … More informed about the process every step of the way. They included me in the decision making and welcomed any ideas that I may have had. The staff was very professional and expressed great concern and compassion as they handled my case. If ever I need representation again, they will be first on my list. Thank you Brooks Law Firm, you are greatly appreciated.
