Our Legal Take

Restaurant employees have a right to feel safe and secure in their workplace. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided at the property and whether this senseless shooting may have been prevented.

  • Have there been prior incidents of violence on or near property?
  • What employee training and late-night security measures were in place to deter crime and protect the victim at the time of the shooting?

The Murray Law Firm has recovered millions of dollars for victims of workplace injuries in Georgia, and recently obtained a $29.25 million dollar verdict for a victim of unsafe work conditions in a Fulton County court.
