A local contract security guard now faces voluntary manslaughter and assault-weapon charges following an armed response to a South Sacramento burglary. When your vendor's officer is charged criminally, the property owner is routinely named in the civil complaint under vicarious liability — even if the incident occurred outside your written scope of work.
California BSIS enforces strict rules on guard licensing, firearms permits, use-of-force, and reporting. When a contract guard steps outside those guidelines — chasing a suspect off-property, drawing a firearm without imminent threat, or filing an incomplete report — the property owner shares the exposure. Multimillion-dollar wrongful-death, negligent-hiring, and negligent-supervision judgments against commercial landlords in California almost always trace back to an armed contract guard escalating a situation that could have been de-escalated. A strictly unarmed, 'Observe and Report' framework — with clean documentation and disciplined law-enforcement handoff — removes the single largest source of that exposure from your risk profile.
We do not deploy armed guards. Ever.
Every Stormhammer officer is a professionally trained, de-escalation-first presence — designed to protect your corporate, retail, and commercial assets while eliminating the civil-liability exposure of firearms on-site.
Under California premises-liability doctrine, plaintiffs routinely name the property owner alongside the security vendor — arguing negligent hiring, negligent supervision, or a foreseeable-risk theory. Even a full defense verdict can cost six figures in fees.
Firearms transform a documentation event into a use-of-force event. Removing them eliminates the fact pattern that produces the largest wrongful-death and assault verdicts against commercial landlords.
