Negligent Security Lawyers in Fresno, California

What Is Negligent or Inadequate Security in Fresno

Excessive Use of Force by Security Guards in Fresno

Security guards are not peace officers. In Fresno, private security personnel have limited authority and may not use unnecessary force.

Unfortunately, excessive force incidents frequently occur when guards are placed in high-risk situations without guidance.

Excessive force may include:

• Striking patrons or visitors

• Unlawful restraints or chokeholds

• False imprisonment

• Use of batons, pepper spray, or weapons without justification

• Worsening minor disputes into violent encounters

• Detaining individuals without legal authority

Both the individual actor and the employer may be held legally responsible.
