Unfortunately, residents of Palm Beach county, as well as tourists visiting the area, are all too often victims of serious crimes while on the premises of others. Oftentimes, many of these crimes could have, and should have been prevented with proper security measures in place. Attorneys, Timothy C. Nies, a former insurance company trial attorney, and Christian Van Riper, a former prosecutor, have the skill, experience and resources needed to prosecute negligent or inadequate security claims against businesses, property owners and landlords, whose carelessness and recklessness in failing to provide proper security measures, resulted in injuries sustained by their patrons or guests.
If there is adequate evidence that security devices, such as locks, or security personnel were inadequate or performed negligently or carelessly, at-fault parties in Florida can be held responsible for the victim's losses. Attorneys Timothy and Christian will work tirelessly to make sure that the negligent parties pay for your harms and losses so that you may start to piece your life back together.
