News of the slaying of two women at a luxury Miami condominium building shook Paraiso Bay residents and may trigger a negligent-security lawsuit.

The women's families could have a case against the condo association, Miami attorney Jason Kellogg said.

The killings also highlight a controversial state law that says real estate brokers and home sellers don't have to disclose to a buyer if there was a murder in a home, another attorney, Andrew Blasi, said. The law protects brokers and sellers from follow-up lawsuits.
