That includes things like broken gates, poor lighting, or ignoring previous threats.<\/p>\n<p><b>What if I were attacked in a business parking lot?<\/b><b><br \/><\/b>Businesses have a duty to provide a reasonably safe environment. That includes parking areas. If a business ignores security issues, it may be responsible.<\/p>\n<p><b>How much compensation can I get?<\/b><b><br \/><\/b>It depends on your injuries, lost income, medical costs, and emotional trauma. Some victims also need long-term therapy. We help calculate the full value of your damages.<\/p>\n<p><b>Is there a deadline to file a claim?<\/b><b><br \/><\/b>Yes. Florida law gives you two years to file most negligent security claims. If the assault involved sexual violence, you may have up to four years in some cases.
