Compensation for Hotel Injuries
Hotels have a legal duty to provide a reasonably safe environment for their guests. If they allow dangers on hotel property, and you’re hurt, you may qualify to receive compensation.
Suing a Hotel for Injury
Hotel operators must take steps to eliminate unreasonable risks of harm. In Pickard v. City and County of Honolulu, the court stated that a hotel has a duty of care for all people who are anticipated to be on the property. They must exercise reasonable care with no distinction in status for an invitee or licensee. The hotel must warn of defects and dangers.
When suing a hotel for injury, we show how the hotel knew or should have known of the danger. Then, we explain how they didn’t take reasonable steps to fix the danger or warn people to avoid it. Open and obvious danger is not a complete defense. We identify your damages and show how the harm was the result of the dangerous condition.
