Speedy Cash is a chain of money lenders that specialize in payday loans and cash advances. They also provide check cashing services to those who need immediate cash or don’t have access to a bank account. While the fees associated with these services are described as “predatory” by consumer advocacy groups, they still offer a service that’s used by many people on a regular basis.
You have probably noticed that most of these stores are not located in the best neighborhoods. As a result, security measures are essential to protect customers and visitors on the premises from criminal incidents, like robbery and assault and battery at parking lots. Failing to clean and maintain the property can result in fall-related injuries at locations, either from a trip and fall or slip and fall.
Those who suffered bodily harm from an accident or assault at Speedy Cash may have grounds to file a personal injury claim. Alternatively, you may be entitled to payments for the loss of a loved from a negligent death lawsuit. Our legal team can help you with either one of these claims and ensure that you receive compensation for your physical and emotional injuries. Contact Normandie Law Firm and talk to a lawyer who can help you sue for negligent conditions at a check cashing store.

Common Incidents at Check Cashing and Pay Day Loan Stores
As we mentioned before, a lot of these stores are not in the safest areas. They also have a “bare bones” approach to furnishing and décor, which is not unusual in a business where they are trying to get people in and out. However, owners still have a duty of care to maintain safe conditions on their property, like making sure the floors are clean and free of things that can make people fall down.
Considering the high crime rates associated with check cashing businesses, owners must also have enhanced security on the premises. Sadly, it’s not unusual to investigate a mugging, sexual assault, or robbery at these locations, only to find that security cameras have been broken for a long time. Or, the lights in the parking lot have burned out bulbs, but no one has thought to replace them. The staff are also inexperienced, careless, or not properly trained. These problems can also lead to physical injuries and psychological damage for an unsuspecting victim.

Filing a Lawsuit – How Long Do I have?
The statute of limitations for a legal case depends on the type of claim you are filing. For those who were injured in an accident or physical assault, you normally have 2 years from the date of injury to file a lawsuit. However, if you are a victim of sexual assault due to a lack of security and other issues of negligence by the business, you are allowed 10 years to file a lawsuit. This standard applies to adult victims; those who were sexually assaulted as minors can file a lawsuit up to 22 years after they turn 18.
In spite of these timeframes, there are circumstances that can change the amount of time you have to sue a store owner for monetary damages. That’s why you should call us right away and confirm the deadline for a lawsuit with a Speedy Cash injury attorney.
Statute of Limitations for a Wrongful Death Lawsuit
Though it’s something no one wants to think about, security breaches and lack of maintenance at a Speedy Cash store may result in someone being killed. This can happen from a severe injury, whether it’s from a fall accident or being shot during a robbery. If you lost a loved one due to negligence by owners or staff at a Speedy Cash store, you have 2 years from the decedent’s death to file a lawsuit for wrongful death.
Those who are eligible for a lawsuit may receive the following benefits:
- Funeral expenses
- Medical costs related to the decedent’s care up until the date of death
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of expected income and benefits
- Loss of consortium
- Attorney’s fees
For more information on each of these damages and how you can file a claim against Speedy Cash, reach out to a wrongful death lawsuit attorney at our office.
