Hotel Accidents

In 2012, approximately eighty-nine million tourists enjoyed touring the great state of Florida. And the number of visitors are expected to keep on growing in the succeeding years, making it a milestone moment for Florida as tourism continues to boom. This surge in visitors also had a positive impact on the hospitality industry as hotels, resorts, and motels house countless visitors in the past months.

According to the premises liability law, the hotel, resort, or motel also needs to maintain adequate security in their parking lots and all hotel grounds. They need to take action immediately if anything on its property poses a liability: for example, dark parking areas, or areas with unstable walls, fences, and other structures.
