Assaults on property often arise when property owners fail to take adequate measures to ensure the safety of people on site. Negligent security could include everything from inadequate lighting to the absence of security personnel on site.

Because such simple but important precautions were not taken, assaults could take place during a robbery or other illegal activity. Although assault can happen to anyone, women and children are particularly vulnerable in these situations, all because the property owner was negligent. It is also possible for sexual abuse to occur during an assault.

For the attorneys at Anderson, Cummings & Drawhorn, LLP, the connection between property owner negligence and the assault you endured is obvious. Property owners are legally obliged to ensure the safety of visitors, guests, and customers. When they do not, they should be held accountable for the injuries that you sustained as a result of their carelessness.
