What Your New York Slip and Fall Lawyer Wants You to Know about Hotel Dangers

You check in at your hotel with the hope of getting some rest. Whether you are traveling for business, pleasure, or to visit family, you expect that your hotel will be a safe place to live while away from home. However, hotels are not always the safe places that we expect.

How a Serious New York Fall Can Occur at a Hotel

There are many ways that a hotel can be dangerous and injuries can occur. For example, a New York fall injury can happen if:
  • There is a slippery area on the floor
  • There are inadequate or broken barriers on balconies
  • There are broken steps
  • The carpeting is not well secured
  • There is debris on the floor
  • The elevators or escalators are not working properly
  • The lighting is inadequate

What to Do if You Notice a Dangerous Condition at the Hotel

If you notice a dangerous condition, then it is important to do two things. First, avoid the area or use extreme caution when you are in the area so as to avoid injury. Second, inform the hotel manager so that warning signs can be immediately put up and steps can be taken before anyone suffers a serious fall injury such as a broken bone, internal injury, head injury or spinal cord injury.

When to Contact a New York Slip and Fall Lawyer

Unfortunately, some dangerous conditions are not discovered until someone gets hurt. If you've been hurt in a slip and fall accident at a New York hotel, then you may be entitled to damages for your medical expenses, lost income, out-of-pocket expenses and pain and suffering. It is important to contact a New York slip and fall attorney at 1-800-362-9329 for a free consultation about your rights and your potential recovery.
