In Missouri, businesses aren’t obligated to protect against crime unless
owners know or have reason to suspect that crime is reasonably likely to
occur on the premises. A reasonable amount of time must be available to
provide security measures.
Under these conditions—with no applicable exceptions Missouri state law holds businesses with negligent security legally responsible for the crimes
and violent attacks occurring on the premises.
At Brown & Crouppen, we’ll work with you during each step of the claims
process to prove that the business ignored necessary security precautions to
keep workers and customers safe.
