When criminals have taken advantage of you
Being the victim of a violent crime can be a terrifying, life-altering experience. Oftentimes, victims not only suffer physical injuries, but emotional and psychological ones as well.
While the criminal justice system provides punishment for the offenders, the civil legal system offers means for the victims of violent crimes to receive restitution and compensation.
If you are a crime victim, you should know your legal rights when you decide to fight back and seek justice. These cases can be complex, and require a financial value be placed on physical and psychological harm, something that is not always easy to calculate. The attorneys at Delgado Trial Attorneys have over 50 years of combined legal experience helping crime victims secure the restitution and compensation they deserve.
Some of the more violent crimes involve sexual offenses including sexual battery, domestic abuse, assault and battery, and stalking. These crimes should always be immediately reported to the police who will conduct their own criminal investigation to hold the wrongdoer responsible, but the criminal justice system often does little to make the innocent victim feel whole again. The attorneys at Delgado Trial Attorneys are here to help victims of crime navigate the civil legal system and obtain justice.
Millions of tourists visit Florida each year to enjoy our sunny beaches and take in a relaxing vacation. Hotels and local businesses have a responsibility to their patrons to keep them safe from becoming victims of preventable crimes. In fact, if the action or inaction of a business is a cause of a tourist’s injury resulting from a violent crime, the business can be held financially responsible.
As a consequence, Florida business owners have an obligation to provide reasonable security if necessary to prevent and deter violent, criminal attacks from occurring to unsuspecting customers on their premises. This specifically includes tourists.
Businesses operating in the state of Florida have a legal responsibility to be aware of prior crimes occurring both on their property and in surrounding properties or neighborhoods.
Awareness of crimes occurring on or around their premises triggers the legal duty to provide security to protect their patrons and visitors. For example, this includes the crimes of robberies, burglary of your hotel room, assault and battery, sexual assault, vehicle theft, stalking, and kidnaping. If you have been the victim of a crime on another person’s property or while visiting a Miami hotel or local business, you may be entitled to criminal restitution and civil compensation for damages in the justice system.
