• Sex Crimes
  The number of violent crimes, defined as robberies, aggravated assaults, murder, and rape, are rising. Within one year, there were 36,873 violent crimes reported according to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. Many of these took place in a public place, where inadequate security measures were taken to protect victims and prevent such incidents from occurring. For this reason, it is the responsibility of building owners to maintain a safe environment for visitors, and this doesn’t just include alarm systems and security personnel; it also includes proper locks to secure access points and sufficient lighting.

Property Law

• Premises Liability
  Under Georgia law, owners and occupiers of land have a duty to keep the premises (and any adjoining approaches) safe from foreseeable harm. By subjecting invitees to reckless danger, negligent property owners are liable for the resulting harm. Victims may thus both press charges in a criminal suit against the rapist, robber, or perpetrator who committed the crime and file a civil action against third-party owners who breached their duty to provide proper protection. Owners of buildings in high crime areas have a duty to provide sufficient lighting, warning signs, and security personnel to keep consumers safe. Landlords have a similar duty to provide tenants with adequate lighting and functioning locks, not only in the stairwells and common areas, but also in private apartment units. Owners of upscale office buildings must also keep the premises safe for the employees who work therein. Thus, a woman who is sexually assaulted while walking to her car after work may have multiple premises liability claims against the building owner, various insurance companies, and the security firm employed to protect her.
