Security Camera Installation Vs Nuisance Lawsuits, Who Wins?
One of the biggest fears of any company or business is the nuisance lawsuit. Someone who hopes to collect from the insurance company of the company or business files the nuisance lawsuit. The people filing nuisance lawsuits feel that the company or business won't have any loss since they have insurance. This statement is wrong since it takes time to defend against a nuisance lawsuit. The best defense against a nuisance lawsuit is a comprehensive security camera installation at the place of business.
Many nuisance lawsuits wind up being "he said, she said" with no actual proof of what happened on either side. The plaintiff may state that they fell and hurt their back at the business and the slip and fall were avoidable. They feel that the business should take responsibility for the accident, even if the accident is a falsehood. Without a recording of the area where the purported slip and fall occurred, the likelihood of the business getting the suit dismissed is slim.
Should an accident occur in a factory, it is impossible for the owners of the factory to determine if a safety rule was violated when the accident occurred should the worker have been working alone. Working alone in itself may be a violation however if there is no one to state that all safety rules and precautions were fulfilled, it is difficult to prove that a safety rule was violated. CCTV coverage in the factory can show that rules were violated thus invalidating the lawsuit.
Generally, the cost of frivolous lawsuits falls upon the insurance company. The insurance company does not have unlimited funds to pay out in lawsuits. The funds must come from the companies that purchase insurance. The companies see the cost of nuisance lawsuits when the insurance company boosts premiums for coverage the next year. A security camera installation can show that the nuisance lawsuit is invalid and can save both the insurance company and the business money in the long run.
Businesses purchase insurance as a measure of security. This measure of security insures them that they will not have to pay outrageous sums as a result of a nuisance lawsuit. The security camera installation also provides a layer of security to the company. The security camera installation can prove that the plaintiff was lying about the injury and the nuisance lawsuit will be dropped at little cost to both business and insurance company. In many cases, the security camera installation will mean a lower insurance premium for the business. Additionally the successful defense against the nuisance lawsuit will also result in lower premiums.
