Can I Sue GuestReady for my Injuries?

Yes, you can sue for being injured at a rental listing found on GuestReady if you were injured from a dangerous condition on the premises. This includes inadequate security measures that resulted in a physical or sexual assault. Through a personal injury lawsuit, you can demand payment for monetary losses, like hospital bills, lost wages, property damage, and pain and suffering.

Lawsuits involving property management companies are more complicated than traditional landlord-tenant cases. If you are renting from a private landlord, for example, you would sue them directly under the laws of premises liability. But who is liable, i.e., legally responsible for an accident if a property is managed by someone other than the landlord?

The answer to this question depends on various factors, including the terms of the contract between the owner and GuestReady. Both of these entities would also have insurance policies that cover incidents and injuries on the properties. These documents must be carefully examined to determine who should be sued or if both parties are liable for the harm you’ve suffered. It’s also worth noting that some accidents are caused by a third party, like a contractor that’s doing work in the area. In these instances, you may have to file a claim with someone other than the landlord or the management company.

Due to these and other issues that will come up during the legal process, it’s best to hire a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible. Contact the offices of DTLA Law Group if you or a member of your family was hurt at a vacation home you rented from GuestReady.

What is the Average Settlement for a GuestReady Accident Injury Claim?

GuestReady accident injury claims may be settled for $15,000 to $50,000 on the lower end, and $5,000,000 to $10,000,000 if there are permanent injuries with catastrophic losses to the victim and their loved ones. The majority of our cases are worth between $150,000 and $3,000,000, but these are just estimates at the end of the day. Your own case value is based on many factors that have to do with your accident, the injuries you’ve suffered, and how they have impacted your life. Thus, you will need to speak with one of our attorneys if you are interested in learning the amount of compensation you can receive from a lawsuit against GuestReady.

How Long Do Lawsuits against GuestReady Take to Settle?

It takes around 4 to 6 months to settle a GuestReady lawsuit if there are no permanent injuries and the details of the accident are relatively straightforward. But if the victim has severe injuries which were caused by gross negligence and other complicated circumstances, settling an injury claim against GuestReady can take 12 to 24 months. An extended stay rental property lawsuit can take over 2 years if you are unable to reach a settlement and going to trial is the only option. However, court trials are necessary in less than 5% of all personal injury lawsuits, so we will most likely settle your case through private negotiations.

What is the Time Limit to Sue GuestReady?

Lawsuits for accidents caused by negligence must be filed within 2 years, starting from when you were injured. If, however, the injuries from the accident don’t manifest until you are past the statute of limitations, you have 1 additional year to sue GuestReady for accidents at a rental property.

The 2-year rule does not apply if you are a victim of sexual assault. If you are an adult who was sexually assaulted at a property managed by GuestReady, you have 10 years to file a lawsuit. On the other hand, those who were minors at the time of injury can sue the responsible parties within 22 years after their 18th birthday. Or, if there is delayed discovery of physical or psychological injuries beyond the age of 40, a victim of childhood sexual assault has 5 years to file a lawsuit.

We know this is a lot to take in right now, and there’s no denying that the statute of limitations can be challenging to figure out. Our legal team is here to help, so call us right away to find out how long you have for a GuestReady vacation rental accident injury lawsuit.
