Preventing crime is not just a police matter

After a tiresome meeting at the Fillmore Street offices of his Denver logistics partner, Jack Bremer was running down the stairs to fetch his car in the underground parking lot. At 8.30 p.m. the sun had come down and most people had left the building. The next thing he knows, Bremer finds himself in a hospital bed with a feeling that something had gone terribly wrong.

Muggings happen, and if people are left bleeding, without their briefcase, purse, mobile phone, wallet or car, they still consider themselves lucky to have survived the assault. After a while however, despair takes over when they realize how much they have lost, and what it will cost to recover from their injuries. Filing a claim against the mugger's insurance company, when they catch him?! That doesn't sound very encouraging. There may be another way.

Colorado property owners are liable for the well-being and safety of their visitors, be they guests or people conducting business. When an assault has occurred there may be reasons to believe that the owner hadn't done everything he could to discourage crime, like installing bright lighting, video monitors and access control, or having guards patrolling the premises after office hours. The owner's responsibility might be more firmly established if assaults have occurred on his premises in the past, in similar circumstances.

The "premises liability" body of law deals with the responsibility of owners-or better said possessors, those who actually use and occupy the premises-to safeguard the well-being and safety of all people on these premises. In most cases, this refers to slip and fall accidents but it extends to all other damages suffered on the property, such as those resulting from poisoning, toxic fumes, assaults, etc.

Hundreds of victims of accidents on unsafe premises have turned to Colorado Springs lawyer Robert J. Anderson, whose long experience and outstanding skills have given them the best possible compensation for their pain, suffering, medical expenses, material damage and loss of income, and have produced an exceptional client satisfaction record.
