Negligent Security

Negligent Security Attorney Serving Holiday, Clearwater, Palm Harbor & Largo, FL

If you were assaulted, robbed, or injured on someone else’s property in Holiday, Clearwater, Palm Harbor, or Largo, Florida — and the property lacked proper security — you may have grounds for a negligent security claim. Attorney John Andreopoulos aggressively represents victims harmed due to unsafe conditions and works to hold negligent property owners accountable.

When property owners fail to take reasonable precautions — such as maintaining locks, hiring security, or ensuring proper lighting — they can be held legally responsible for resulting injuries.

What Is Negligent Security?

Negligent security is a type of premises liability case that involves injuries caused by criminal acts that could have been prevented with proper safety measures. These cases can arise from incidents in places like:

  • Apartment complexes

  • Hotels and motels

  • Bars and nightclubs

  • Parking garages and lots

  • Retail stores and shopping centers

If security measures were inadequate or ignored, and you were harmed as a result, you may be entitled to compensation.

Common Examples of Negligent Security

John Andreopoulos has successfully handled negligent security claims throughout Pinellas County and beyond. Some common scenarios include:

  • Broken or missing locks that allow intruders access

  • Lack of security guards in high-risk areas

  • Inadequate lighting in stairwells, parking lots, or hallways

  • Failure to address repeated criminal activity on the premises

Property owners have a legal duty to protect visitors and tenants. When they ignore known dangers, victims deserve justice.

What to Do If You Were Injured Due to Poor Security

If you believe negligent security contributed to your injury in Holiday, Clearwater, Palm Harbor, or Largo, here are some immediate steps to take:

  1. Report the incident to police and property management

Claudia Christodoulakis

him. Immediately, he was able to get me to a phenomenal doctor, that gave me a shot in my arm that relieved the pain temporarily until further tests were done. John was amazing, and very easy to get a hold of. If he wasn’t available, his assistant Tammy was so kind and knowledgeable. If there was something she couldn’t help me with, John would call shortly after. I couldn’t ask for better representation! John and his staff made it so that all I had to do was focus on getting better. He exceeded my expectations, and was able to get me the settlement that I deserved for my injuries. God forbid, but if I ever need a personal injury lawyer in the future, I will call John immediately. Not those stupid commercials you hear on the radio all the time, but knowledgeable, kind, and completely in your corner. Thank you so much John and Tammy, you helped me in so many ways!
