Looking for a Negligent Security Lawyer in Tampa?
A Tampa negligent security lawyer can investigate whether a property owner’s failure to provide reasonable security contributed to an assault, robbery, shooting, or other preventable crime. A negligent security claim is a type of premises liability case alleging that inadequate safety measures exposed a lawful visitor, tenant, guest, or customer to foreseeable criminal harm.
These incidents may happen in apartment complexes, hotels, parking garages, bars, shopping centers, and other properties throughout Tampa. Broken gates at a Westshore apartment complex, poor lighting in a downtown parking area, or unsecured entrances near Ybor City can make it easier for an attacker to enter or remain on a property without being detected.
The person who committed the crime may face criminal consequences, but a property owner, manager, or security company may also bear civil responsibility when preventable security failures contributed to the harm. Our legal team can investigate the property, preserve available evidence, and explain whether you may have a premises liability claim.

Why Choose Ligori & Ligori for Your
Negligent Security Case in Tampa, FL?
Property owners and insurance companies may argue that a criminal attack was sudden, unpredictable, or unrelated to the condition of the property. Our Tampa negligent security lawyers look beyond those initial explanations and investigate what the owner, manager, or security contractor knew before the incident. A strong claim may depend on evidence controlled by the property. We can seek surveillance footage, incident reports, maintenance records, security contracts, employee schedules, prior complaints, and records involving broken gates, locks, cameras, or lighting. We may also interview witnesses and work with qualified security professionals when expert analysis is appropriate.
Local knowledge matters when evaluating how a property operated. An apartment complex near Dale Mabry Highway may have different access-control concerns from a downtown Tampa hotel, a Ybor City nightclub, or a parking garage serving Westshore businesses. We examine the actual property and circumstances rather than treating every security case the same.
Florida negligent-security cases often involve questions about foreseeability, control of the premises, and whether reasonable precautions could have reduced the danger. A property owner is not automatically responsible whenever a crime occurs, so each claim requires careful evidence showing how a specific security failure contributed to the injury.
