Answer:

Last week, I received a phone call from a potential client asking if a negligent security claim be filed if the attacker was an employee. The answer is that it certainly depends here in Orlando. The reason being is it depends upon what the duties and scope of employment are for that particular individual and, more importantly, where their insurance coverage is going to apply given the circumstances. This is a tricky area of the law, and that is why it is extremely important that you hire a knowledgeable, experienced attorney, who focuses and handles negligent security cases, to make sure that the case is investigated so that the employee can be held liable, the employer can be held liable, and that insurance coverage will exist.
