Inadequate Security Attorneys in Sacramento, California

What Is Negligent or Inadequate Security in Sacramento

Excessive Use of Force by Security Guards in Sacramento

Security guards are not law enforcement. In Sacramento, private security personnel have restricted powers and may not use excessive 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

• Over-detention

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

• Worsening minor disputes into violent encounters

• Holding individuals without legal authority

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