What Is Negligent Security?

Whether you are entering the parking area of your apartment complex, making your way to your hotel or motel room, or enjoying a leisurely shopping trip, you rely on the owners and managers of these businesses to keep you safe.

If you have been assaulted, attacked or molested on someone else’s property in Georgia, we will make sure you understand all your rights. Please call 770-901-2666 to schedule a free consultation.

If you have been a victim of crime, our lawyers are here to help you obtain compensation for past and future medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost income or ability to earn, and any other damages associated with the injuries you incurred.
