Hotel Iron Injury Attorneys

After an incident at a hotel, it is important to understand liability. Who is liable for the injuries that happen in a hotel due to an incident with a hotel iron? Well, liability for incidents in hotels fall on hotel owners under premise liability. The concept of premise liability states that all property owners have a duty to keep their premises safe for their guests. They must identify and address any hazards present throughout the premises, including any hazards presented by appliances provided by the hotel. This means that the hotel owners must make sure that the irons that they provide guests are kept in good condition, that wires are not damaged, and that the electrical outlets where the irons are plugged in are also in working order.

Unfortunately, many hotel owners simply ignore hazards. They only care about getting their guests in and out and getting paid; they do not care if their irons or other small appliances in their hotel rooms are not working correctly and pose a risk to guests. When hotel owners fail to address the different hazards present throughout their premises and incidents happen, they could be found liable for resulting injuries – and victims and their families could sue.

Yes – you could sue the hotel owner for any injuries that you or a loved one suffered on their premises, including for injuries caused by an iron provided by the hotel. Your right to sue will be based on the concept of premise liability, which was explained above. To summarize, hotel owners have a duty to keep their entire premises safe for their guests; this includes a duty to ensure that no appliances, like irons, represent a risk to guests. For more information about your right to sue, contact the experts here at our law firm as soon as possible.

Can I be compensated for the electric shock injuries suffered due to an iron at a hotel? Yes – you could be eligible to recover compensation. The different categories of compensation that could be available for recovery could include the following:

• Medical costs
• Lost wages
• Pain and suffering
• Punitive damages
• Wrongful death benefits (funeral/burial cosets and loss of consortium)
• Legal costs

What is the average value of a hotel iron electric injury case? This is a tough question to answer as every case is different and trying to determine an average value that applies to all claims can be misleading. Case value is based on many factors, including the severity of the injuries, the permanency of the injuries, the victim’s wage history, and more. In general, these claims can have values ranging from $45,000 to $700,000, and sometimes more. These are estimated values. For a more case-specific projection of the possible value of your claim, contact our legal team today.

How long does it take to settle a hotel iron electric shock case? The time that it takes to settle a case can vary significantly. In general, the more complex the case, the longer it takes to reach a settlement.
