Farmer & Morris Law, PLLC can seek compensation for your medical bills, pain and suffering, and other damages. Call today for a free consultation and learn how we will fight for financial recovery.
What Incidents Can Result From Negligent Security?
When injured claimants see the term “negligent security,” they may think of assaults. Yet, while assaults are types of negligent security cases, other claims arise from:
- Animal attacks. If you were bitten by an unrestrained dangerous dog (for example), you could hold the animal’s owner responsible for your losses.
- Uncontrolled crowds. Security guards must ensure crowd control. This includes booting out unruly concertgoers, keeping entrances safe during holiday sales, and having proper safety protocol in place.
- Accidental drownings. Lifeguards must be stationed at swimming pools to ensure everyone’s safety. If there isn’t a lifeguard present at a public swimming pool, the owner must put a “swim at your own risk” sign in place.
This is not a comprehensive list of the cases we handle. You can learn more about entrusting your case to our legal team during your free consultation.

Trust Our Mt. Holly Personal Injury Attorneys to Seek Fair Compensation
Compensation is more than financial reimbursement for your injury-related losses. It offers the resources you need to heal from your condition and process your trauma. It can also offer a measure of justice, helping you feel safe in our community again.
That being said, financial compensation in your case could award damages for:
Healthcare Costs (Past, Present, and Future)
Your health comes first, and after suffering a serious injury, you may require:
- Emergency medical treatment
- Hospitalization
- Surgery
- Rehabilitation
- Medications
- Cosmetic procedures (if you have scarring or other forms of disfigurement)
We will demand complete coverage of your medical bills.
Lost Income
Your Mt. Holly negligent security lawyer will demand compensation for lost income, lost earning power, and other professional damages you’ve suffered.
Non-Economic Damages (Losses Without Inherent Financial Values)
Suffering injuries due to negligent security can touch each corner of your life, causing anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. While your lawyer can’t undo what you’ve suffered, they can seek awards that acknowledge the incident’s effect on your life.
Compensable non-economic damages in your injury claim could include:
- Loss of consortium
- Pain and suffering
- Mental anguish
- Emotional trauma
- Disfigurement and scarring
- Disability, whether cognitive or physical
North Carolina does not cap how much you can request for pain and suffering in a personal injury case.
