Your Child Was Assaulted in a Hotel Room. The Hotel Is Liable. If your daughter was sexually assaulted at a hotel in Indianapolis, you are reading this page at the worst moment of your life, and we are sorry. You are also reading it at the right time, because the single most important thing you can do in the next 72 hours is protect the evidence that proves the hotel let this happen. That evidence is already disappearing. Every day you wait, the hotel’s surveillance video records over itself. The key-card logs that show who was in the room cycle out. Staff who saw the man at the front desk move on to other jobs. This page is written to give you the truth about what the law requires, what the hotel did wrong, and what we do next. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC. We represent families in Indiana who have been injured because a hotel failed to protect them. We work on contingency — no fee unless we win — and the consultation is free. We answer the phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week, at 1-888-ATTY-911 (1-888-288-9911). Hablamos Español.

Sunderland Hotel Rape & Child Sexual Exploitation: Civil Claims for Survivors After Taranvir Galsinh’s 18-Year Sentence — Attorney911 Pursues Premises Liability for Negligent Security, Failure to Safeguard Minors, and the Hotel’s Duty Under UK Safeguarding Laws, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider Who Knows How the Claims Machine Handles Child Exploitation Cases, We Preserve CCTV Footage and Guest Registration Logs Before They Are Overwritten, the Firm Has Recovered Millions for Survivors of Sexual Violence — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

The moment the Court of Appeal read the victim impact statements The first thing to understand about this case is the moment that mattered most. It was not the original sentencing. It was not the guilty plea. It was the reading of what those teenage girls had to say about what a 45-year-old man from Sunderland did to them, in a hotel room and in a car, over a period of time, while they were children. When Detective Constable Hanna Liddle of Durham Constabulary addressed the Court of Appeal, her words were not legal argument. They were the work of a police officer who had sat across from those girls: “The consequences of Galsinh’s actions will outlast any sentence but having seen the impact of what he has done we believed the sentence should be longer. He subjected the girls to an horrendous ordeal and continues to show no remorse for what he has done. The girls have been incredibly brave throughout this whole process, and we hope this extension to the sentence will help them as they try to find a way forward with their lives.” That statement captures the entire architecture of the case. The original 12-year-and-three-month sentence…

Deerfield Hotel Sexual Assault & Negligent Security Lawsuit — Attorney911 Holds the Property Owner and Management for Failing to Intervene Despite Witnesses Seeing the Attack, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Attorney Who Knows How the Claims Machine Undervalues Trauma, We Preserve Surveillance Footage and Staff Logs Before They Are Overwritten, Illinois Premises Liability and Foreseeability of Prior Crime, the Firm Has Recovered Millions for Catastrophic Injury Victims — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

We Are Talking to the Survivor Reading This Page If you are reading this in the days or weeks after an assault at a hotel in Deerfield, in Lake County, Illinois, you do not have to sort out what comes next on your own. You also do not have to wait for the criminal case to finish before you talk to a civil lawyer. The criminal prosecution against your attacker — the man now sentenced to natural life in the Illinois Department of Corrections — and the civil case against the property that housed the attack are two separate fights, with two separate clocks, run by two separate sets of rules. We handle the second one. You may be afraid of what a civil case costs. You may be afraid that no one will believe you. You may not have told anyone yet beyond the people you had to. All of that is normal. What we want you to know before we say anything else is this: the law in Illinois gives you real tools, real time, and a real right to hold the place where this happened accountable — and our firm exists to use those tools for people…

Bronx Hotel Sexual Assault & Knifepoint Rape Lawsuit: Attorney911 Holds Hotel Opus Accountable for Negligent Security in Baychester — Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider Who Knows How the Claims Machine Undervalues Trauma, We Preserve Surveillance Footage and Electronic Lock Logs Before the Overwrite, New York’s Duty to Protect Guests from Foreseeable Crime, the Firm Has Recovered Millions for Victims of Violent Assault — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

What Happened at Hotel Opus and What Comes Next If you are reading this, you or someone you love survived a knifepoint rape inside a room at the Hotel Opus in the Baychester section of the Bronx. The attacker took $400 in cash, forced you to remove your clothes, and assaulted you. The police have video. You were taken to a hospital in stable condition, and the man who did this is still out there. We are sorry. We know the world feels unsafe right now, and we know that every search, every phone call to a lawyer, every decision about what to do next takes a kind of courage you should not have to summon alone. This page is written to you, one person, in a way we hope leaves you less alone and more armed. Here is the truth we want you to carry from the first sentence: a New York hotel does not get to rent a room to a guest and then look the other way when a violent stranger walks in and takes that guest’s life apart. The law in this state, developed over decades by the New York courts, recognizes exactly that responsibility. And…

A Hotel Sexual Assault in Lancaster County: What Survivors and Families Need to Know Right Now A woman was staying at a hotel in Strasburg Borough on the night of December 11, 2025. According to charging documents, she and a friend had been drinking beers with members of a construction crew working at the Clarion Inn on the 1400 block of Historic Drive. Later that night, a man from that crew knocked on the door of the women’s room and invited them to another room to drink. The woman went with him, expecting her friend to follow. The friend did not immediately follow. When the woman got to the other room, she was raped and assaulted. The friend eventually came to the room, confronted the man, and yelled for someone to call 911. The suspect had already left by the time police arrived that night, but officers found and arrested him the next morning. He is now being held at Lancaster County Prison without bail on charges including rape and strangulation. If you are reading this because something like this happened to you or to someone you love, this page is for you. We are Ralph Manginello and Lupe Peña.…

Georgetown, Scott County, Kentucky Workplace Sexual Assault & Hotel Negligent Security Lawyers — Attorney911 Holds Toyota Motor Corporation and Hilton Worldwide Accountable for Coworker Rape and Forcible Sodomy During Mandatory Training Travel, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Attorney Who Knows How Corporate Claims Teams Minimize These Cases, We Preserve Hotel Key-Card Logs and Surveillance Footage Before the 30-Day Overwrite, Kentucky’s One-Year Statute of Limitations Is Running, the Firm Has Recovered Millions for Sexual Assault Survivors — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

You Are Not What Happened to You. You Are What Comes Next. If you are reading this in the hours or days after a sexual assault at a hotel in Georgetown, Scott County, Kentucky, we are sorry for what was done to you. You are not a case file. You are not a statistic. And the law does not make you carry this alone. We represent survivors of sexual assault, and we have seen the morning-after fog you are sitting in: the hotel police tape, the strangeness of your own body, the way your mind keeps replaying the room, and the quiet terror of who else has been in that room before you and who will be after. We know the other voice in your head, the one asking whether you should have fought harder, said no more loudly, not had that drink. We know because survivors describe that voice to us, and we tell every single one of them the same thing: what happened to you was not your fault, and the law is built to put the responsibility where it belongs — on the person who attacked you, and on the companies that let it happen.

Milwaukee Hotel Sexual Assault & Stalking Injury Lawyers — Attorney911 Pursues the Luxury Hotel and Its Corporate Owner for Negligent Security After Violent Bathroom Assault, Head Trauma, and Workplace Retaliation, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider Who Knows How the Claims Machine Handles Premises Liability, We Preserve Hotel Surveillance Footage and Salon Booking Records Before the Overwrite, Wisconsin’s Safe Place Statute Holds Owners to the Highest Standard of Care, the Firm Has Recovered $50M+ for Injury Victims Including TBI ($5M+) and Sexual Assault Cases — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

We Stand With You After What Happened in That Hotel Bathroom We know why you are reading this page. You went out one night in the Juneau Town neighborhood of downtown Milwaukee — Valentine’s Day 2026 — and you met a man at a bar. He talked his way into taking you to the Pfister Hotel, a place he had no business bringing a stranger he just met. Once you were inside a hotel bathroom, he turned on you. Your head hit a sink with enough force to scramble your memory of the rest of that night. The next thing you remember clearly is telling a friend the next morning what happened. Then, weeks later, he did the unthinkable again. He tracked you down at your workplace — the place where you earn your living, the place that should have been safe — and groped you in front of witnesses. When the police were called, he walked out before they arrived. According to the charging papers, his parting words to you were, “Thank you for not judging my kinks.” You are not imagining what was done to you. What happened to you is a textbook sequence: the grooming, the isolated…

Human Trafficking & Forced Prostitution at Jessup, Maryland Red Roof Inn — Attorney911 Holds the Motel Chain and Its Franchisee for Failing to Stop the Online-Advertised Exploitation, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Attorney Who Knows How the Claims Machine Values and Denies Trafficking Cases, We Preserve the Guest Registration Records and Surveillance Footage Before the Overwrite, Federal TVPRA and Maryland’s Trafficking Victim Protections, the Firm Has Recovered Millions for Crime Victims — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

You Are Not Alone, and You Have Rights If you were trafficked at the Red Roof Inn on Washington Boulevard in Jessup — or at any motel, hotel, or short-term rental in Howard County — we want you to hear something clearly before anything else in this page: what happened to you was a crime, not a choice. The people who took money from your exploitation can be held civilly answerable, separate from the criminal case the State of Maryland is already pursuing. We represent survivors, not the people who hurt them. The criminal charges that came out of the Howard County Police Department’s investigation — two defendants, Zhongmei Zhang and Li Yu, each facing two counts of human trafficking and two counts of prostitution, after officers responding to a tip on July 17, 2019, found victims inside a room in the 8000 block of Washington Boulevard — opened the door. The civil door is yours, and it does not depend on whether the criminal prosecution ends the way you hope. We can pursue compensation from the people who facilitated the venture, the hotel that took the room money, and anyone else who benefited from what you were forced to…

North Little Rock Motel Sex Trafficking Lawsuit: Attorney911 Holds Hotel Owners Liable for Ignoring Red Flags Under Arkansas Human Trafficking Civil Liability Laws — Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider Who Knows How Claims Are Valued and Denied, We Preserve Security Footage and Guest Registries Before They’re Overwritten, the Firm Has Recovered Millions for Victims of Negligent Security and Premises Liability — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

We Are Talking To The Mother Who Just Filed This Lawsuit — And To The People In Her Shoes You read that a mother sued the owners of a North Little Rock motel because, she says, the property ignored the signs that her child was being trafficked right under its roof. The headline makes it sound clean: hotel failed, family sues. It is not clean. The motel industry is built so that the person most responsible is usually a layer or two removed from the front desk. The evidence that proves what the front desk saw usually cycles out in weeks, not months. The federal case is built on a statute most Americans have never heard of. The state case is built on a different statute, written for Arkansas specifically, that the motel owner’s lawyer is counting on you not knowing. And the insurance carrier’s playbook is already running, even if you have not yet been told its name. This page is built to take all of that apart — piece by piece — and to put in your hands the same map of the fight that we hand our clients on day one. We write to one person: the…

Tom Bodett Sues Motel 6 & G6 Hospitality for $1.2M Breach of Contract — Attorney911 Litigates Unpaid Voiceover Fees and Unauthorized Use of Iconic Spokesperson’s Voice After Corporate Acquisition, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider Who Knows How the Claims Machine Values and Denies Commercial Disputes, We Preserve the Advertising Records and Wake-Up Call Logs Before They Are Altered, Texas Contract Law and Right of Publicity Protections — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

The Man Who Kept the Lights On for Forty Years Just Got Them Turned Off on Him For nearly forty years, one voice told America to leave the light on for them. Tom Bodett became the sound of cheap, clean, honest lodging, the guy with the dry humor who made a national motel chain feel like a place where ordinary people could lay their heads down without being taken. He wasn’t a celebrity doing a cameo. He was the voice. The voice answered the wake-up calls. The voice greeted the guests in the radio spots. The voice became so identified with the brand that, for a generation of travelers, “Motel 6” and “Tom Bodett” were the same word spoken two different ways. And then, at the end of his final contract year, the checks stopped. What followed is one of the most quietly stunning betrayals in American commercial history: a forty-year relationship terminated not for cause, not for failure, but because the new owners could. The $1.2 million owed for the final year of work didn’t get paid. The misrepresentations began. The obfuscation, the delay, the runaround, the bureaucratic haze a giant company builds around a creator who has done…
