Who is Responsible if You Were Assaulted in New Jersey?
In New Jersey, the person who assaulted you is responsible. But where did the assault take place?
- Someone’s Home: If you are invited to another person’s home, the homeowner may also be responsible for the assault. If the homeowner is related to the assailant, he or she may be held accountable for the assault claim. If the homeowner provided liquor to the assailant, and he/she became intoxicated, the owner can be responsible.
- Shopping Center or Mall: There are cases that require a shopping center or mall to provide security to their customers. If a store or mall has information about assaults on its property, they will also be responsible for your assault injuries.
- Restaurant or Bar: These establishments must have a safe location and atmosphere for their patrons. If a restaurant serves liquor to a person who is already drunk, and this person assaults you, the restaurant may be held accountable. If a bar or restaurant fails to provide security to its customers, they can be responsible if you are assaulted due to their lack of security. Finally, if a bouncer assaults you, the restaurant can be responsible for its employee’s assault.
- Apartment Complex: In some situations, an apartment complex can be held responsible if you are assaulted on its property and there have been prior assaults or crimes at that location.
