Security guard companies are currently booming. Some top security guard companies include United Guard Security, Allied International Security, Citiguard Security Guards, Eagle One Security Services, Karas Security Services Inc., Veritas Security Services, Bannerman Security, All Nation Security, Eagle Eye Protection, and Security Prime. Why are there so many security guard companies? Well, some security guard companies offer general services, while other companies offer specific services. Security guards can often be seen in office buildings, apartment buildings, party halls, and shopping centers. There are security guards to serve other locations. Nightclub security guards are undoubtedly posted outside nightclubs. Some bars also have security guards. At locations like nightclubs and bars, however, the security guard is likely referred to as a bouncer. Bouncers usually stand outside of the door and check guests’ identification as they enter the building. Since many of these places are age restricted, it is important for these security guards to check identification and turn away anyone who is not allowed to enter. Bouncers might also routinely walk inside the building and make sure that everything is running smoothly. Another type of security guard is bodyguards. Normal civilians might not have the need for personal bodyguards; however, people of celebrity status or with an important position might feel safer if they are always accompanied by a personal bodyguard.
All security guards are undeniably hired to protect and ensure their client’s safety. However, there have been many incidents in which security guards have overstepped their boundaries and have sexually harassed and assaulted the people they were supposed to be protecting. What can a victim do to take action against a security guard? Can victims sue the security guards or the security guard company?

You can take legal action against the individual security guard that caused you harm. But, can you file a lawsuit against the security guard company? Security guard companies are responsible for properly screening and training their guards before sending them out on an assignment. If the security guard company did not subject the guard to a background check before hiring him or her, the security guard company might be liable. Likewise, if the security guard company had previously received complaints about the guard but failed to take the proper measures to investigate the claims and take proper action, the security guard company might be liable. If the security guard company took all the correct measures—like screening, training, and monitoring the guard—it is unlikely that the company would be held accountable. For more assistance, consult with a skilled attorney with expertise in sexual harassment injury lawsuits.
After the incident, you must report the security guard responsible. You can report the guard to the appropriate security guard company and with the police. Then, you should contact an attorney to discuss filing a lawsuit against the security guard and the security guard company, if the company could be found liable. An attorney specialized in dealing with sexual harassment and sexual assault will inform you of your options for filing a lawsuit. Since neither sexual harassment nor sexual assault is a legal cause of actions, you will have to file under another category. What causes of action are available for you to file a lawsuit for sexual harassment or sexual assault? There are three different categories of lawsuits that can be related to sexual crimes. The most obvious is assault and battery for sexual assault. Another type of lawsuit is false imprisonment. If you were held against your will at any point during the assault or the harassment, you could file this claim. Victims of sexual assault and sexual harassment can also file a claim for the intentional infliction of emotional distress. You should schedule a consultation with an expert attorney with experience handling sexual assault claims to establish which cause of action is appropriate for your case. An experienced attorney will also help you figure out whether the security guard company can be considered liable for the security guard’s actions. Contact a top-rated law firm with a lawyer experienced in sexual harassment and sexual assault cases will help you as soon as possible.
