The Haggard Law Firm’s Michael Haggard and Adam Finkel have obtained a $12 Million settlement in a high-profile catastrophic negligent security case.

On Memorial Day 2021, Marcus Williams arrived at Prime 112 for dinner. After exiting his vehicle within Prime 112’s valet, he immediately noticed that other members of his party were being yelled at by a group of unknown individuals. As the yelling became louder, and the unknown people used racial slurs and threatening language, Marcus looked towards the Prime 112 employees outside for action.

But the employees were simply watching instead of assisting. Marcus walked towards the argument.

As he approached a single gunshot was fired. An unknown person had walked up to Marcus and shot him in the back of his neck. Falling to the ground, Marcus could not feel anything. The father of three was unable to move his arms or his legs. The gunshot severed his spine and rendered Marcus a quadriplegic.

Representing Marcus and his three minor children, The Haggard Law Firm sued Prime 112 and the Myles Restaurant Group. Alleging that Prime 112 should have had private security at the restaurant, or at the very least trained their employees to respond to altercations involving their patrons, as those unknown aggressors were learned to be diners at Prime 112 that just left the restaurant. During the case, in fact, The Haggard Law Firm learned that Prime 112 did have private security on weekend nights, but chose not to have security on Memorial Day. While Prime 112 argued that private security was not needed and that nothing necessitating security had previously occurred at Prime 112.
