Many shoppers become victims of crime while they are at shopping malls. Often, these criminal attacks take place in parking lots of large shopping malls. The criminals take advantage of unsafe conditions in the shopping mall premises. The property owners have not devoted themselves to protecting their clients from criminals who intend on attacking visitors to the shopping mall. The criminals exploit the poor lighting or the lack of security to prey on their victims.

The Law Offices of Oscar Syger, P.A. have represented many victims of criminal attacks that have occurred in public places. We have used architects, retired law enforcement officers and criminologist to analyze the security at the public place and compare it to what should have been used to protect the victims of crime. The consultants we have used inspect the shopping mall or hotel gather crime statistics in the vicinity, to arrive at an optimum security plan. Armed with this information, we have in the past obtained financial compensation for our clients who have been victimized by the inadequate security presented to them while they were in the shopping mall.
