Clients have called our law firm, the Downtown LA Law Group, for many years to take legal action against hotels after suffering injuries on their properties. We know that locations like the Hilton Garden Inn can be prime locations for accidents, and you should be prepared to sue if you are injured while staying at such an establishment. By law, hotels must provide guests with safe and sanitary spaces, and if there are any violations, the hotel can be held accountable. There is the opportunity to file a lawsuit against the hotel if you were injured in an accident that could have been prevented had the hotel management or owner been more careful. Our Hilton Garden Inn accident lawyers are more than equipped to win your claim for you.

Accident Types at a Hilton Garden Inn

The accidents that you can suffer at a Hilton Garden Inn are not uncommon; they may occur at any hotel or motel across the country. Many of the incidents are brought about by the negligent action of the hotel staff or employees, while others are caused by third-party contractors that did not complete jobs or did not do them adequately, leading to hazards. Managers need to ensure that the hotels are safe for all guests to inhabit, and if there are hazards or dangers present, the establishment or chain can be held responsible for any ensuing damages. Slip and falls are commonplace in hotels, simply because of the numerous types of surfaces that can cause them to occur. For example, slip and falls may happen in the hotel restaurant where there is discarded food on the ground, or they may occur near the pool where there is a lot of water on the ground. They can also happen in the lobby and in the halls because of torn carpeting or defective stairs. Outside, there may be cracks in the sidewalk, wet leaves, unshoveled snow, unsalted ice, and more hazards that could cause you to fall. More specific accidents that occur at hotels happen inside facilities like the gym and spa. The gym or fitness center may have weight machines, treadmills, weights, benches, and other equipment. However, this equipment may not be properly maintained, and if it breaks or malfunctions during use, it can cause a severe accident, especially with heavy weights. Spas also have the potential for collapses, slippery floors, and more. Another common facility inside hotels is the pool. Swimming pool accidents may be more severe and damaging than other types of incidents because there are rarely lifeguards present at these pools. If someone is injured, there is a less likely chance that help will be immediately available. Pool-goers have been injured because diving boards have been broken and ladders have not been fastened to the pool. Further, one of the reasons that pool accidents are not to be taken lightly is because of the risk posed to children. Accidents that happen within rooms themselves should also be considered. There are usually hundreds of rooms in a Hilton Garden Inn, which means that the staff cannot properly and meticulously investigate each room after a tenant vacates it. However, there should be a certain level of attention paid to ensure that there are no dangers. Unfortunately, this is not usually what happens, and many people report accidents in the rooms due to broken chairs, collapsed bed frames, broken doors, slippery showers, and bed bug infestations. In addition, there are times when the hotel merely did not act appropriately to prevent you from being injured. There is the chance that other hotel guests, security guards, hotel workers, patrons, and others can enter the hotel freely and not need their access verified, which can lead to physical and sexual assaults. A lack of proper security, door checking, and restricted areas can cause the hotel to be held liable for the incident. You should always consider taking legal action if you are injured at a hotel. The Hilton Garden Inn may have been negligent in its duties of protecting you as a customer, and it is recommended that you pursue proper compensation for your losses.

How to Sue Hilton Garden Inn

If you wish to sue the Hilton Garden Inn, you must first establish the nature of the accident and who was liable. You will likely be filing a premises liability claim, which means you will have to prove one of three points:

• The property owner knew about the hazard and chose to do nothing to fix r remedy it
• The property owner caused the hazard to happen
• The property owner did not know about the hazard but reasonably should have

You will also need ample evidence to back up your claim. This evidence can consist of the following:

• Proof of medical treatment
• Eyewitness statements
• Credit card receipts
• Photos of your injuries
• Photos of the scene of the incident
• Security footage

It is imperative that you immediately get medical treatment and do not wait, as the insurance company can claim that you were hurt in another incident and that you are using the hotel accident to get unfair compensation. You will also not risk further injuries by going to the doctor at once. Further, it is extremely important that you do not file an incident report with the hotel until after you have already gathered as much proof as you can. If you file the report too quickly or try to bring the problem up to the manger, he will likely try to suppress your claim but removing evidence, or preventing you from gathering it. To ensure that you have the highest chance of success with your claim, you should contact a skilled lawyer for more assistance. It is not recommended that you go through the claim by yourself with no prior legal experience or knowledge; you will not be treated properly by the insurance agents and you likely won’t get the compensation you deserve, if anything at all.
