What Legal Options are Available for Troy Cannon’s Family?

OUR LEGAL TAKE

Bar and parking lot visitors 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 security measures added after any prior incidents?
• Were the security personnel at the property properly trained and licensed?
• 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 Troy Andre Cannon may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims and substantial compensation for their loss. In addition, any injured victims may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims and substantial compensation for their injuries.
