Hotel Guest v. Hotel

The firm represented a defendant contractor, who performed renovation work at a hotel. A guest of the hotel allegedly tripped and fell over a door threshold. The guest sued the hotel for premises liability. The hotel cross-complained against the firm’s client for indemnity. The firm took the hotel guest’s video deposition at the site of the alleged trip and fall. At the deposition, the guest admitted that no construction work was being performed at the location of the incident. After the deposition, the matter quickly settled for a nominal payment by the hotel and contractor.

Counsel: David W. Smiley
