Orlando Hotel Injury

Orlando hotels and resorts offer wonderful accommodations and amenities. Unfortunately, as Orlando injury lawyers, we have seen preventable injury occurring at Orlando hotels and resorts.

Many times these injury claims involve trip and fall or slip and fall hazards. For example, when hotel guests are walking along sidewalks or walkways, they have a right to a level, even and non-slippery surface. Yet, we have Orlando hotels and resorts with floor surfaces, sidewalks and parking lots that are broken, uneven and slippery.

While no one can guarantee that trip and falls, or slip and falls will not happen, a hotel or resort can provide safe pedestrian areas to prevent avoidable injury. In many cases, it is important to obtain photographs of the scene of the fall. Unsuspecting injury victims who trust the hotel or resort to ?do the right thing,? may be surprised when the dangerous condition is corrected and the owner or operator denies responsibility. In one premises liability case, water had accumulated on the tile floor and caused our client to slip and fall. A family member wisely took photos and prevented the owner from later denying the existence of water on the floor.

Most people are honest, hardworking and simply want to be treated fairly. Sadly, Orlando hotels and resorts do not always do so when injury results from their carelessness. Fortunately, Florida law has permitted us to assist many Orlando injury victims when dangerous floor surfaces, walkways or parking lots have caused preventable harm. To help those who have been injured, we continue to make available a free copy of the Florida Accident & Injury Book, Seeking Justice.
