I would strongly urge you to ignore any legal advice you read on this thread as some people have given answers that are completely, 180 degrees, wrong. If she wants a real answer, contact a local attorney.

you are part of what is wrong with America

person gets assaulted on private property, so sue the private property because they didnt handle the situation like you would have wanted it handled?

Starbucks is an evil corporation with billions of dollars. Corporations are what is wrong with america. Take all you can from them.

This. She will be able to get a free consult from any local personal injury attorney. Don't come to an anonymous internet forum for legal advice.

Until you know the whole story, that's a bit premature, don't you think? This should certainly be investigated, especially if the Starbucks employees let it happen. There might not be any liability, but to rule it out based on what we know is just silly.

most certainly not

it is not Starbucks fault that your employee got assaulted

to try and profit for that misfortune in such a manner is deplorable

You should have been providing your employees protection from unprovoked attacks...you're just as liable as Starbucks is.

have an employee that was assaulted in starbucks last night. She was brutally beaten, and suffered a broken arm, and orbital bone. The starbucks employees sat around and watched and laughed. Aside from the employees being worthless pieces of shite, Does she have any legal recourse with starbucks or only her assailants?


Ask yourself what Starbucks could have done differently?

Do they have a duty to keep their patrons safe from things they have control over? Sure.

A random unprovoked attack? Probably not

Are the employees supposed to intervene, and get their asses whipped too, or possibly killed? Not many badass barristas.

Not sure about CA law, but in La there is no duty to prevent criminal assaults of 3rd parties, unless the crime in the area is so bad that an attack was foreseeable.
