Legal Options Available to Family of Nicholas Edward Grace?

OUR LEGAL TAKE

FORMER CLIENT: I had lawyers calling me, and friends telling me who I should hire…I trusted in The Murray Law Firm and I’m glad I did.

Convenience store and parking lot patrons have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises they are visiting. The level of security provided at the property is of significance, and is a relevant consideration when analyzing whether this shooting may have been prevented.

The following list of questions are also important in assessing whether this incident may have been avoided:

Have prior incidents of violence been reported on or near the property?
Was the property owner or manager aware of any suspicious activity prior to the shooting?
Were any security personnel at the property?
Were security measures added after any prior incidents?
What protocol was in place to deter crime and protect the victims at the time of the shooting?
Have authorities been to the property on prior occasions?

Property owners are generally required to protect against foreseeable harm to anyone and everyone legally on the premises. Should the investigation into this incident reveal facts that establish that the property owner or management lacked adequate security to protect its visitors, the family of Nicholas Edward Grace may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims and substantial compensation for their loss.

The Murray Law Firm has extensive and successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, and suggests that an immediate, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed so as to limit evidence from being altered, damaged or destroyed. The complexities of pursuing a negligent security case are well understood by the legal team at The Murray Law Firm, and it is imperative that the family of Nicholas Edward Grace retain a capable law firm who will work without delay to protect their interests.

Theodis Patterson Loses Life in San Leandro, CA Apartment Fire. Fire Safety Negligence?

by The Murray Law Firm

Theodis Patterson San Leandro: Legal Claims Available to Family?

We have over 25 years of experience representing victims of fire safety negligence and security failures across the United States, and we have recovered nearly $250 million dollars for our Clients. Read Our Legal Take below to find out what legal options are available to Theodis Patterson’s family.

Theodis Patterson Loses Life in San Leandro, CA Apartment Fire. (Stock Photo: MurrayLegal.com)

San Leandro, CA NEWS – An apartment fire Sunday afternoon, September 29, 2024, tragically claimed one life.

As reported by MercuryNews.com, “[t]he fire erupted about 3:23 p.m. Sunday in an apartment at a complex in the 14600 block of Washington Avenue.”

NBCBayArea.com is reporting, “officials responded…where one man and a dog were found deceased due to the fire. The victim was identified by the Alameda County Coroner as 78-year-old Theodis Patterson.”

According to EastBayTimes.com, “[t]wo other residents of the burning apartment were able to escape on their own but Patterson was not able to and was killed.”

Fire inspectors continue to investigate the cause of the fire.

Potential Legal Claims for Family of Theodis Patterson?

Our Legal Take

FORMER CLIENT: I had lawyers calling me, and friends telling me who I should hire…I trusted in The Murray Law Firm and I’m glad I did.

As authorities continue their investigation, premises liability attorneys with The Murray Law Firm question whether a lack of security or fire safety measures at the complex may have contributed to this incident.

Was the property owner or manager aware of any suspicious activity prior to the incident?
Were any security personnel at the property?
What fire safety measures, such as working smoke detectors, fire sprinklers and emergency exits, were in place and working at the time of the fire?
When was the last fire inspection performed on the property?
Were any safety measures added after any previous inspections?
Was the property owner aware of any inadequate fire safety measures present prior to the fire?

As details of this fire continue to emerge, The Murray Law Firm suggests that it is possible that the apartment complex failed to undertake proper safety measures to protect those residents and guests legally on the premises. Under certain State law, the owner and management company of an apartment complex have a duty to protect residents and to keep the premises safe. If the owner or manager fails in this duty, they may be held civilly liable for any injuries or wrongful deaths that occur as a consequence. Should the apartment complex be found at fault, the family of Theodis Patterson may elect to hold the owner and management company civilly liable for their loss and suffering.

As insurance companies and unscrupulous property owners are often concerned with limiting their financial exposure in these incidents, it is crucial that the family of Theodis Patterson retain an experienced premises liability firm as soon as possible to ensure all evidence, such as a faulty fire alarm or a poor evacuation plan, is preserved and the family’s best interests are protected. The Murray Law Firm has extensive experience in premises liability and apartment negligence cases, such as this, and we offer our legal expertise, if needed.

Potential Legal Claims for the Family of Jesse Murdock?

OUR LEGAL TAKE

FORMER CLIENT: I had lawyers calling me, and friends telling me who I should hire…I trusted in The Murray Law Firm and I’m glad I did.

Employees, vendors and guests have a right to safety and security while on the premises of a business. The safety measures provided at the site or the malfunction of equipment may be at issue in this matter, and may be important in evaluating whether this tragic incident may have been prevented.

List of factual and legal inquires:

What safety rules were in place to prevent this type of accident?
Did any such safety features fail?
Was the tragedy a result of a catastrophic equipment malfunction?
What was the condition of any machinery/equipment involved?
Was the company or property owner aware of the potential safety risks to employees?
If equipment or machinery were involved in the incident, were any attempts made to service, recall or replace any such machinery or equipment prior to the incident?

Under workers’ compensation laws, our legal team suggests that the family of Jesse Charles Murdock will most likely be entitled to significant compensation as a result of this accident. While they should be eligible for benefits under workers compensation laws, they may also hold a substantial third-party negligence claim. Based on its history and experience in representing families in workers compensation and negligence claims, The Murray Law Firm suggests that the family of Jesse Charles Murdock should retain legal counsel without delay so as to ensure that all evidence connected to the incident is preserved.

OUR LEGAL TAKE

FORMER CLIENT: I had lawyers calling me, and friends telling me who I should hire…I trusted in The Murray Law Firm and I’m glad I did.

Motel guests and visitors have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The level of security provided at the hotel is of significance, and is a relevant consideration when analyzing whether this shooting may have been prevented. The following questions are also important in assessing whether this incident may have been avoided:

Have prior incidents of violence been reported on or near the property?
Were any security personnel at the property?
Were security measures added after any prior incidents?
What protocol was in place to deter crime and protect the victims at the time of the shooting?
Was the property owner or manager aware of any suspicious persons or suspicious activity on the property prior to the shooting?
Have authorities been to the property on prior occasions?

Property owners are generally required to protect against foreseeable harm to anyone and everyone legally on the premises. Should the investigation into this incident reveal facts that establish that the property owner or management lacked adequate security to protect its visitors, the family of Joseph Carter may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims and substantial compensation for their loss.

The Murray Law Firm has extensive and successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, and suggests that an immediate, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed so as to limit evidence from being altered, damaged or destroyed. The complexities of pursuing a negligent security case are well understood by the legal team at The Murray Law Firm, and it is imperative that the family of Joseph Carter retain a capable law firm who will work without delay to protect their interests.
