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.

Apartment complex residents and guests 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 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 Asia Alyce Poole may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims and substantial compensation for their loss. In addition, any injured victim may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims and substantial compensation for their injuries.

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 Asia Alyce Poole and any injured victim retain a capable law firm who will work without delay to protect their interests.

Jeremy Mack, Aden Mahlon Lost in Ridgway, PA Apartment Fire. Fire Safety Negligence?

by The Murray Law Firm

Apartment Fire in Ridgway, PA Tragically Claims Lives of Jeremy Mack, Aden Mahlon. (SMDailyPress.com)

Jeremy Mack, Aden Mahlon: Ridgway, PA Apartment Fire Tragedy.

The recent fire at a Ridgway apartment complex raises serious questions about negligent fire safety and potential legal claims for Jeremy Mack’s and Aden Mahlon’s family. Our firm has over 25 years of experience representing victims 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.

RIDGWAY, PA NEWS

An apartment fire in Ridgway, PA Saturday morning, August 17, 2024, tragically claimed two lives.

As reported by CBSnews.com, “[t]wo children have died following an apartment fire…[the] apartment fire broke out Saturday morning along North Broad Street in Ridgway, Pa.”

OleanTimesHerald.com is reporting, “Jeremy Mack, 2, died at UPMC Children’s Hospital in Pittsburgh at 10:15 p.m. Sunday, while his brother, Aden Mahlon, 12, died the following morning at 10:20 at UPMC Children’s.”

According to the report, “[t]heir 34-year-old mother, whose name was not released by authorities as of Monday, was reportedly in stable condition.”

The investigation is ongoing.

Potential Legal Claims for Jeremy Mack’s and Aden Mahlon’s family?

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 fire safety measures at the complex may have contributed to this incident.

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 those on the property 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 families of Jeremy Mack and Aden Mahlon 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 families of Jeremy Mack and Aden Mahlon 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 families 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.

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?
