Coral Gables attorneys Todd Michaels and Adam Finkel of The Haggard Law Firm negotiated a $1 million pre-suit settlement over an unusual negligent security claim, where the suspected attacker was a tenant who had every right to be on the property.

Plaintiffs counsel said victim Wayne Mitchell had celebrated his 50th birthday days before he was shot and killed Jan. 7, 2019, at his apartment complex at 2170 Washington Avenue in Opa-locka.
