You Are Not To Blame. You Are Not Alone. And You Still Have Rights. We want you to hear this first, before anything else on this page: what happened to you was not your fault. The intoxication. The hotel room. The trust you placed in a man whose job was to keep that place safe. None of it gave anyone the right to do what was done. The law is on your side, and so are we. If you are reading this late at night, or early in the morning, or in the middle of the day when the house is finally quiet and the memories come back — we are here. Our firm has spent more than two decades standing between survivors of sexual violence and the institutions that failed them. We have walked survivors through forensic exams, police reports, insurance carriers that tried to stonewall, and the long arc of civil litigation. We know the geography of this fight. We know what insurance companies do in the first seventy-two hours. We know what hotel chains say when their own general manager is arrested. And we know that the case is built one piece at a time, starting with…

If your daughter was raped at a motel in Aberdeen, you are not powerless. You may be reading this at 2 a.m. at a kitchen table, or in the hallway outside an interview room at the Aberdeen Police Department, or in the parking lot of the Children’s Advocacy Center in Moore County where a forensic analyst spent hours documenting what a man did to your twelve-year-old or your fourteen-year-old behind a motel door. You may have just hung up from a detective’s call and your hands are still shaking. You may not have eaten today. You may have already begun to wonder whether anyone will ever be held responsible for what happened, beyond the man in custody. We have spent decades in rooms like the one you are sitting in. We have done this hundreds of times, and we still take it personally every time. The answer to the question forming in the back of your mind is yes — the motel that rented that room, the manager who staffed that front desk, and the company that owns that property can be held to account in a civil court, separate from and in addition to the criminal case against the…

Boston Hotel Sexual Assault Lawyer — Holding the Omni Parker House Accountable for Negligent Security If you were sexually assaulted at the Omni Parker House hotel in Boston, or at another hotel in Suffolk County, the criminal sentence of the attacker is not the end of the road. It is the beginning of a different fight — a civil fight for the money, the medical care, and the lifetime of treatment that the criminal court does not order. That fight has a different burden of proof, a different timeline, and a different set of defendants. And in Boston, it is a fight we know how to wage. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC. Ralph Manginello has spent 27+ years in courtrooms including federal court, building cases against hotels, bars, and corporations whose security failures hurt our clients. Lupe Peña is a former insurance-defense attorney who spent years on the other side of this fight, learning exactly how the defense machine values, delays, and denies a claim — and now uses that knowledge for the people it was built to fight. Together, our Massachusetts trial team pursues the negligent security, dram shop, and corporate accountability cases that arise…

When the Hotel Room That Was Supposed to Be Safe Became the Place It Happened You went to a room for what you were told was a business meeting — a few minutes to grab some paperwork, a quick conversation about a software deal, a routine handshake and goodbye. You had one glass of wine. By the time you came back to yourself, you could not move your arms or your body. The man who had invited you in was choking you, and while he was choking you, you lost consciousness. That is the kind of thing that happens in a Hollywood script, not a hotel room on a Tuesday night. Then you woke up, and it was not a script, and the man was a United States congressman, and the hotel was a West Hollywood property known to everyone in Los Angeles. Maybe you are Lonna Drewes, and your case has been public, and your attorney has filed a police report with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, and you are reading this because someone told you this was the kind of place that explains what your rights are in plain English. Maybe you are a survivor who has…

Maybe you saw the news about the Days Inn at 2200 E. Airport Freeway in Irving and recognized something in the story that felt too close.

Days Inn Sex Trafficking Lawsuit in San Antonio & Houston — Attorney911 Holds Wyndham Hotels & Resorts and Franchise Operators Under TVPRA for Multi-Year Exploitation of Jane Doe (A.A.M.), Cash-Paid Rooms, Extended Stays & Do-Not-Disturb Signs at Texas Properties, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Attorney Who Knows How the Claims Machine Values Trafficking Cases, We Preserve Hotel Folios & Night Audit Records Before They Are Deleted, Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code Chapter 98 Allows Civil Recovery for Entities That Knowingly Benefit — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

The Case Came to Texas — Now the Real Work Begins The case that started in a Newark federal courtroom just changed addresses. A Jane Doe (identified in court papers as A.A.M.) filed a sex trafficking civil lawsuit against Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, Days Inns Worldwide, and several franchise entities tied to Days Inn locations. She alleges she was trafficked between 2010 and 2014 at two Days Inn properties — one in San Antonio, one in Houston. The U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey, with Judge Esther Salas presiding, ruled on four separate motions to dismiss. The judge split the claims: granting some, denying others. But she also ordered the case transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas, where the San Antonio hotel sits. The case will now be litigated in the jurisdiction where the alleged abuse occurred. If you or someone you love was trafficked at a Days Inn, a Super 8, a Howard Johnson, or any other Wyndham-branded hotel in San Antonio, Houston, or anywhere along the I-10 and I-35 corridors, this is the page you need. We will walk you through exactly what the law allows, what the court…

Six-Month Sex Trafficking Nightmare at North Little Rock Motel 6: Attorney911 Holds G6 Hospitality & Stone Hospitality Group Liable Under the Trafficking Victims Protection Act for Ignoring Screams, Bruises & 100+ Police Calls—Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider Who Knows How the Claims Machine Undervalues Trafficking Survivors, We Preserve the Room Folios & Surveillance Footage Before the Overwrite, the Firm Has Recovered Millions for Victims of Severe Abuse—Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

If This Happened To You at a Budget Motel Off I-40, You Are Not Alone — and You Are Not Powerless You were held in a room you could not leave. You tried to scream for help. You tore the curtains off the wall so someone would notice. You showed your bruises to anyone who looked. You picked up the room phone and begged the front desk to call the police. And a manager came to your door, told you he would “handle it,” and walked away without ever dialing 911. If that story is yours, you did everything a human being could do to escape, and a business kept the door closed anyway. That business is a franchisee of a national motel brand. It collected room rent every single night of your captivity. It turned a documented record of police calls, prior rapes, prior forced prostitution, and a prior missing minor at its own address into more of the same nights on the books — not into a call to law enforcement. When you asked for help, the staff treated your terror as an inconvenience to be managed in-house. You may have been told that no one will believe…

You Are Not What Happened to You in That Room If you are reading this at 2 a.m. in Athens, or in Covington, or somewhere in New York where you were taken from, or in any bedroom in this country you ended up in after a Days Inn room key changed hands for cash we know it is not a “consultation” you were ever planning to make. You may not even call what happened to you “trafficking.” You may call it survival, or the only option, or something you are not ready to put a name on yet. You may be sixteen or you may be forty-six. You may still be inside the situation, or you may have gotten out last week, or ten years ago. You may be the parent who got the phone call.

Sylmar Motel 6 Human Trafficking & Negligent Security Lawsuit — Attorney911 Holds G6 Hospitality and Its Corporate Parent Accountable for 60+ Arrests, Staff Complicity in Renting Rooms to Pimps, and the Foreseeable Criminal Activity That Turned the Premises Into a Hub for Gang Violence, Drug Distribution, and Exploitation: Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Attorney Who Knows How the Claims Machine Undervalues These Cases, We Secure Guest Registries, Security Footage, and Police Reports Before They Are Purged, California’s Public Nuisance Doctrine and the City’s $250,000 Settlement Prove the Pattern — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

What Happened to You at the Sylmar Motel 6 Was a Documented Pattern, Not a Freak Event If you are reading this, something happened to you, or to someone you love, at the Motel 6 in Sylmar — and you want to know whether the law treats what happened as an accident, or as a choice the hotel made. The short answer is: it was a choice, and a long one. The longer answer is what this page is for. We are going to walk through, in plain English, what the public record already shows about that location, the federal and California civil statutes that give a survivor (or a family acting for a survivor) a path into court, what evidence exists that the hotel company knew, who you actually sue, what kind of recovery is realistic, and what you should do in the next 72 hours to protect a case that can quietly disappear while the videotapes recycle and the housekeeping logs get purged. We handle cases like this from intake through trial. Ralph P. Manginello has spent 27+ years in courtrooms, including federal court, and was a journalist before he was a lawyer — which is why we…

Longmont Hotel Stabbing & Near-Fatal Assault Lawsuit: Attorney911 Holds Choice Hotels & Econo Lodge Liable for Issuing Room Key to Intoxicated Non-Guest Who Slashed Nicole Gallegos’ Throat, Kicked Out Her Teeth — Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider Who Knows How the Claims Machine Undervalues Premises Liability Cases, We Preserve the Key-Card Logs and Surveillance Footage Before They Are Overwritten, Colorado’s Premises Liability Act Demands Reasonable Care for Guests — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

You Were Supposed to Be Safe in That Room It was the last night before a flight out of Denver. You and your mother — together in one room at the Longmont Econo Lodge because the trip was already long and the room was supposed to be a safe place to land. Then he showed up. Pizza as a goodbye. You let him in because you knew him. He started acting erratically, and you kicked him out of the room. The right call. You thought you were safe. You weren’t. He walked to the front desk, told the husband-and-wife team working it that he was drunk and had taken “a crap ton of Xanax,” wrote a profanity-laced breakup letter in front of them, and somehow talked them into handing him a key to your room. No ID. No check. No one called you to ask if it was okay. He walked back to the room with the key the hotel gave him. He said, “I’m going to fing kill you, c.” And then he cut your throat. He kicked you on the floor. He knocked out your teeth. He told you he liked the smell of your blood. He told…
