CRIMINAL
ATTACKS
People who are victims
of criminal attack may also have the right to make civil claims for money
damages.
This is true even when the perpetrator is not caught or even if the perpetrator
is never identified.
For example, victims of criminal attacks may be able to make claims against
the premises where the attack happened or against the security company
that was responsible for safeguarding the public.
Don't assume that you have no options because the criminal who attacked
you or your loved one is not "sueable".
We have successfully prosecuted cases for victims of criminal attack at
the CHA, hospitals, stores, parking lots, and in other public and private
places.
In one case, a boy was shot in his own apartment when the security guard
failed to stop or do anything about a gang member whose gun set off the
metal detector. The victim's family received a substantial award for this
blatant negligence.
In another case, a hard working nurse was savagely beaten after leaving
her hospital late at night. The hospital's security guard was off somewhere
not paying attention to his duties.
