Litigation Packet

Cases of negligent or inadequate security often involve serious harm and arise from a wide variety of premises, including parking lots, hotels, restaurants, apartment complexes, gas stations, office buildings, and more. These cases present complex questions of liability, often attributable to multiple parties. Defendants almost always include the property owner, but blame is often shared among property managers, security firms, and individual perpetrators. Plaintiff attorneys must also consider the likelihood that defense counsel will argue your client is partly to blame for the harm they suffered.

AAJ created the Litigating Inadequate Security Cases Litigation Packet to help AAJ member attorneys handle these cases. This Litigation Packet includes numerous sample case materials from cases involving sexual assaults, shootings, stabbings, and more to arm plaintiff attorneys with the tools they need to take on any type of negligent security case. This packet also includes AAJ Education speaker papers and TRIAL® articles related to premises liability.
