Hotel Silverlake ADA Baño Abogado de Lesiones

ADA refers to the Americans with Disabilities Act. The ADA prohibits discrimination against people with disabilities in several different areas, including employment, transportation, public accommodations, communications, etc. Hotels and motels must be ADA compliant. Some of the most common examples of ADA compliance in hotels and motels include the following: installing ramps to make facilities wheelchair accessible, having wider doorways and hallways, having elevators, ensuring enough floor space between beds, emodifying restrooms to allow wheelchair accessibility.

Below, we will specifically discuss the need of ensuring that hotels restrooms are completely ADA compliant.

There are many different requirements that hotel owners must adhere to in order for their accessible guest rooms to remain ADA compliant. These requirements are listed below:

• Bathrooms must provide enough clear floor space for a wheelchair to turn around.
• Bathrooms with a bathtub must have in-tub seats. These seats can either be permanently affixed to the end of the bathtub or removable but with secure placement so that they are unmovable during use.
• Bathrooms must have parallel grab bars on the back wall of the tub.
• Bathrooms must have one horizontal grab bar on the control wall.
• Bathrooms using a removable seat must also have another grab bar opposite of the control wall.
• Bathrooms with roll-in showers must have shower seats and controls within reach of the seat.

Many hotels do not provide the necessary bathtub seats. Instead, they offer plastic shower chairs or stools. In the images of the ADA bathrooms at the Silverlake Hotel, it is clear that they offer only the plastic shower chairs, which are a violation of ADA regulations. In addition. These plastic shower chairs have been known to be dangerous when used in bathtubs.

When hotel bathrooms are not accessible for people with disabilities, then a number of incidents can occur. Whether the grab bars are not placed correctly, are loose/broken, or shower seats are unstable, for example, people with disabilities can potentially fall and sustain severe injuries. Examples of injuries could include the following:

• Traumatismos craneoencefálicos y cerebrales
• Lesiones cervicales
• Lesiones de espalda
• Lesiones medulares
• Fracturas
• Lesiones nerviosas
• Laceraciones
• Rasguños y contusiones

Although these injuries might seem to be only minor, it is important to understand that people with disabilities sometimes have underlying conditions that make them more prone to serious injuries and to not recovering well from said injuries. Because of this, it is of utmost importance that that hotel bathrooms are truly ADA compliant and that people with disabilities can use hotel facilities without any risk of injury.

Yes – you could have the right to file a personal injury lawsuit for the harm that you or a loved one suffered due to an ADA violation in a hotel bathroom. For a successful lawsuit, your lawyer must be able to prove that the property owner knew or should have known of the hazard caused by their ADA violation. This is based on the concept of premise liability, in which all property owners have a duty to keep their premises safe for all their guests. By failing to address hazards present on their premises, then property owners could be found liable for any resulting harm.

Our law firm often gets the following questions:

• What is the average value of cases similar to mine?
• ¿Cuánto tardará en resolverse mi caso?

The truth is that it can be difficult to answer these questions, as every case is different.

Although we cannot establish an average value, we can establish a range. In general, hotel bathroom injury claims can be worth anywhere from $150,000 to $750,000, although these claims can sometimes exceed this range. Ultimately, the value of your claim will be based on many different factors, including the type of injuries sustained, whether injuries were permanent, etc.

In addition, the time that it takes to settle these types of cases can also vary significantly. Here at our law firm, we work with the goal of settling these cases in as little as 6 months. However, there are many complications that can arise and result in the case taking longer to settle. Some injury cases can take up to two years to settle.

In California, all personal injury claims are subject to a statute of limitations which determines the time that claimants have to sue. If claimants do not file their claims on time, then they could lose their right to sue entirely. So, how long do you have to file a lawsuit.?

Your claim will likely be subject to a two-year statute of limitations, which means that you will have only two years to file your claim. However, some exceptions could apply; therefore, it is important that you seek legal assistance immediately to ensure that you have a thorough understanding of the time that you have to sue.
