Assaults and attacks
While generally people cannot be held liable for the actions of a third person, sometimes a business owner can be held liable for an assault or attack on their premises. If they fail to keep their premises safe and an attack occurs inside or outside of their immediate location then they may be liable. Orange County Premises Liability cases are complex and if you think the owner of the premises where you were attacked should be held liable you must contact a capable Orange County Personal Injury Attorney who can discuss what makes a business liable for attacks and assaults on their premises and how to recover in that situation.
Generally business owners can take pre-emptive steps or due care to attempt to prevent assaults and attacks such as keeping the areas around their store or premises well lit at night, installing security cameras or hiring a watchman. While not all assaults and attacks in a store parking lot or outside of another business will have the necessary elements to hold a business owner liable you can almost guarantee that if they were put on notice that prior attacks had occurred there, then they will have to take extra measures to safe guard clients or licensees.
