Negligence and Hotel Injuries in Chicago

Accidents don’t just happen out of the blue. Over 90 percent of the time, a person’s negligence causes accidents which could have otherwise been prevented. Hotel employees and managers are required by law to make sure that the premises are reasonably safe so that guests do not get injured. Failure to do so constitutes negligence which is litigable under Illinois personal injury law.

Here are some of the most common scenarios that lead to hotel injuries:

• Slip and fall injuries due to spilled water left on the lobby floor
• The lack of a handle in the bathroom to help elderly guests safely get out of the shower
• Poorly lit stairwells causing guests to miss a step and go tumbling down flights of stairs
• Lack of supervision in the pool area leading to the drowning of young guests
• Poor maintenance of gym equipment leading to injuries while working out
• A poorly maintained or faulty facet scalding a guest with hot water
• Inadequate fencing on balconies leading to children falling off them
• Improperly affixed carpets and rugs causing people to trip and fall
• The improper arrangement of chairs causing guest to trip over furniture
• Negligent security within or outside the hotel leading to assault
