The Haggard Law Firm’s Douglas McCarron has secured a $10 Million settlement in a negligent security case. Several details of the case are confidential per terms of the settlement.
The Haggard Law Firm’s client was driving through the apartment complex on his way to meet a friend. As John Doe drove he heard shots, a bullet pierced through the trunk of his car and struck him in his lower back. Doe immediately lost sensation in his lower extremities, and he was unable to control or stop his vehicle before it crashed into parked cars in the parking lot.
The property, owned and managed by the defendants, had a long and extensive history of violent crime. Despite this history, the property had zero security measures in place. The Haggard Law Firm alleged that the defendants were negligent for failing to provide real and competent security, failing to maintain the premises, and failing to implement any security measures that would prevent and deter crime.
At only 27 years of age, John Doe suffered catastrophic injuries leaving him a paraplegic. These injuries will cause a significant amount of pain and suffering as well as life-altering medical issues for the remainder of his life.
