Nuisance lawsuits result from people claiming to be injured when they were not injured in actuality. The person who files the nuisance lawsuit may not realize it but the nuisance lawsuit costs both the business it is filed against and the insurance company of that business both time and money. Many people feel that insurance companies have a lot of money and that a single lawsuit isn't going to hurt them. In actuality many courts are clogged with nuisance lawsuits. A security camera installation that covers all of the areas of a business provides the best means of defeating the nuisance lawsuit.

The data (images) obtained by a security camera installation can prevent the successful frivolous lawsuit. Should a plaintiff state that they fell in a particular area at a particular time and place on the business property, the images from the camera viewing that area can be reviewed. This data can prevent the successful frivolous lawsuit.

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.
