Sunset Place Crime Victim Lawyer
Were you injured in a criminal attack in Sunset Place? You should know that you are not alone. Folks who go to Sunset Place never think that they may end up injured in hospital after their visit there. But criminals count on you letting your guard down. They also factor in lax or inadequate security plans. If the security doesn’t pay attention either, they have a wide-open opportunity to harass, rob or hurt the guests.
Sometimes, there is no one to blame for a crime other than the criminal. But in other situations, the crime was foreseeable and therefore potentially preventable. To determine who, other than the criminal, might bear some responsibility for injuries or deaths arising out of crimes at Sunset Place, you can call our Sunset Place crime victim lawyer at the Gerson & Schwartz law firm in Miami for help.

People injured in crime attacks in Sunset Place should know that the mall and the stores have the duty to provide them with a reasonably safe environment for shopping, dining, and entertainment. Florida law requires the Sunset Place to take all the necessary measure to prevent any foreseeable crimes at their premises. In all too many cases inadequate or negligent security plans lead to a breach of that duty. When that happens, Sunset Place and potentially some of its tenants may be responsible for your injury-related expenses and losses.
You can also claim damages against the criminal offender, but don’t expect compensation from them anytime soon. If they are caught at all, it will take a long time until conviction. Even when they are convicted, they usually never have the money to pay for all of the damages they caused by their criminal actions.
There is one more option, too. It leads to the Florida Bureau for Victim Compensation, which is a governmental agency that compensates the crime victims in Florida for the economic losses incurred from crimes in Florida. There are some legally set requirements that your case must meet to qualify for compensation. But once you comply with those, you may be in line to receive compensation for some of your medical bills and lost wages. But this option will never lead to full and fair compensation for all of your damages following injuries or deaths at Sunset Place.
