The Legal Landscape of Negligent Security in Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania law mandates that property owners must take reasonable measures to protect patrons and visitors. This includes adequate lighting, surveillance, security personnel, and removing potential hazards. Failure to meet these standards can lead to liability under negligent security laws. Our firm understands the intricacies of these statutes and effectively advocates for those harmed due to negligence.

In Pennsylvania, determining liability in negligent security cases often involves a detailed examination of several factors. These include the predictability of the crime, the property's history of criminal incidents, and the adequacy of existing security measures. By thoroughly investigating the circumstances of your case, we can identify lapses in duty that may form the basis for your claim. Such diligence ensures a comprehensive approach to securing justice and compensation for our clients.
