ATM and Bank Attack Lawyers in Georgia
ATMs are magnets for physical assaults, violent crimes, and robberies. Criminals know that ATMs are centers for depositing and withdrawing cash. They can take advantage of unsuspecting ATM users, forcing them to withdraw cash from the ATM and hand it over. Lax ATM security measures and negligent banks result in numerous daily physical assaults, armed robberies, and muggings. If you have survived an attack at an Atlanta ATM, you may have a right to obtain compensation through a negligent security lawsuit.
ATMs and Premises Liability Lawsuits
Property owners have a legal duty to keep their premises reasonably safe for visitors or customers. ATM owners are required to provide customers with adequate security measures. Bank owners are responsible for gauging the risk of violent crime and using proper security measures to prevent harm to customers. Examples of security measures banks should utilize include ATM lighting, security cameras, and security personnel that ensure the safety of ATM users.
What to Do After an ATM Attack
Suppose you or your loved one have suffered a violent attack or robbery resulting in personal injury or a significant monetary loss. In that case, it is essential that you reach out to a premises liability attorney after receiving medical attention. When the ATM owner should have reasonably known about the unsafe condition that resulted in your injuries, you can pursue compensation for your medical injuries, property damage, pain and suffering, and more. Attorney James Rice will carefully review your case, answer your questions, and help you understand your legal rights and obligations.
Mr. Rice, treated me and my case as if he was dealing with a “colleague” from the moment we met until the end of my case. I’m not a lawyer, nor in anyway, connected professionally to the law field. By “Colleague” I mean “Man, Husband, and Father” with all the responsibilities which correspond to the profession. He told me exactly what to expect with my case. His strategy and timeline to meet those expectations and what he would require of me to bring it all together in my best interest. Straight shooter, who got me back to the profession I love most in this world! Great lawyer who I’m proud to recommend to anyone needing his services.
