Mr. Trotz has handled personal injury cases involving car accidents, trucking accidents, slip and fall, premises liability, and negligent security. Each and every day, Mr. Trotz represents those who have been injured through no fault of their own, and many of his clients have sustained traumatic, catastrophic and life-altering injuries.
Inadequate security cases arise when someone is on a commercial property and attacked by a third party. Under Mississippi law, the owner of the property or business has a duty to take reasonable measures to prevent foreseeable harm from third parties. In this context, third parties are individuals not employed or connected with the commercial property that come onto the property and cause patrons harm. If you have been a victim of a violent attack at a business or apartment complex, you may be able to recover from the business or property owner for providing inadequate security. At Nahon, Saharovich & Trotz, our Tupelo inadequate security attorneys are dedicated to helping our clients recover what they are legally entitled to, all while providing personal and individual service.
$211,000: The law firm successfully obtained a jury verdict in the amount of $211,000.00 against the Defendant, reduced by 10% for negligence on behalf of the Defendant’s employee and 10% on behalf of our client. We represented an individual who was injured by an employee of a company due to inadequate safety regulations. Our client was cut by a chainsaw, sustaining deep lacerations to his right arm, as well as severing tendons, which required surgery. Our client incurred medical bills in the amount of $29,775.71. Not only were we able to assist said individual with his workers’ compensation claim, our firm was also successful with the pursuit of a third party liability claim against the company who employed the negligent worker.

Inadequate security cases are often complex and require a thorough investigation into the commercial property’s maintenance and security measures. To be successful, you must show that the commercial property owner acted negligently by failing to take reasonable preventative measures to protect against foreseeable harm, which could include burglary, assault, rape, or homicide. Below are a few common trends in inadequate security cases in Mississippi:
One key to asserting a successful inadequate security case is showing foreseeability. Essentially, the injured party and an inadequate security lawyer in Tupelo must prove that the property owner knew or should have known about potential threats from outside parties to his patrons. For example:
Out of the two scenarios above, you should have a stronger case against the owner of commercial property B. There, the owner likely should have foreseen that potential third-party attackers could harm their patrons based on similar past events. These are just examples. No matter the situation, if you have been injured while on the premises of a commercial property in Tupelo, talk to our inadequate security attorneys about your case.
It was awesome having Monica as my attorney. She was very informal and responded back in a timely manner. You worked hard to get me what I deserved. I was elated to have her along with her team to work for me.
Never thought I would need an attorney for a personal injury case, but it happened. I thought, after my accident, that I could handle all the claims, insurance, doctors, hospitals, etc…, but I was quickly overwhelmed. It was then that I was referred to NST by a friend.. Mrs. Childress and the staff at the Tupelo office were amazing! I felt like they were fighting for me and my injury, not just a “payday”. I hope that something like this never happens to me or a loved one again, but I have comfort in the fact that I know who I will turn to if it happens again; without a doubt, Mrs. Childress and the staff at NST Tupelo. Thank you for all that you did for myself and my family.
