It depends. Probably the same insurance company covers the new owners.
Re: liability due to gross negligence pass to the new property owners in the cas
It depends on how the sale of the business was conducted. It also depends on who had the risk of loss at the time of the vandalism. Do you have a written agreement with the storage facility? Has there been prior incidents of theft and/or vandalism?
Re: liability due to gross negligence pass to the new property owners in the cas
I would be very surprised if the storage facility has any responsibility. Check your contract. It may all fall on your own shoulders unless facts, conduct shows gross negligence, etc., falling outside contract. Need to review all docs and info before I can answer your questions.
