OUR LEGAL TAKE

Shooting range patrons have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of safety procedures provided at the shooting range and whether this shooting may have been prevented.

  • Were rules and regulations at the shooting range being strictly inforced?
  • Have there been prior accidental incidents on the property?
  • Were appropriate range personnel supervising the range during shooting activity?

Generally, property owners are required to protect all those legally on the premises from any foreseeable harm. Should the facts of this matter reveal that the shooting range owner failed to provide adequate safety supervision to protect those on its premises, the family of John Salvati may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for their loss. 

Based upon its prior successful experience in handling safety negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, The Murray Law Firm suggests that photographs and a thorough, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed immediately, before any evidence may be repaired, damaged or destroyed. Given the complexities of pursuing a negligent safety case, it is imperative that the family of John Salvati retain an experienced attorney who can ensure the preservation of any and all evidence that may support such a claim.
