We Are Talking to a Mother Who Has Now Buried Three of Her Children If you are reading this page, you have lost someone to gun violence at a house that was never supposed to be hosting that party. You may have watched your son bleed out in an unfamiliar neighborhood, or held his hand while a hospital team tried to save him, or sat across from a detective who told you the shooters are still unidentified. You are now being asked by strangers — police, prosecutors, reporters, neighbors, well-meaning friends — to make decisions at a time when you can barely get out of bed. We are not going to tell you that money fixes anything. Nothing fixes the empty chair. We will tell you what Ohio law actually does for a family in your position, what is at stake, who can be held responsible, what evidence is on a clock that may already be running out, and how we work. We have worked catastrophic-death cases across Ohio for more than two decades, and we will sit with you in your kitchen or your living room, on your schedule, in English or in Spanish, and walk through every option…

MGM Resorts Sues 1,000+ Las Vegas Shooting Victims to Avoid Liability — Attorney911 Fights for the 58 Killed & Hundreds Injured at Route 91 Harvest Festival, Holding the Hotel Giant & Its DHS-Certified Security Contractor Under Nevada Premises Liability Law, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider Who Knows How the Claims Machine Values Mass-Casualty Cases, We Preserve Hotel Surveillance & Staffing Logs Before They Vanish, the Firm Has Recovered Millions in Wrongful-Death & Catastrophic-Injury Cases — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

If MGM Just Sued You For Surviving, Read This First If a lawyer’s letter arrived with MGM Resorts International’s letterhead saying the company that owned the hotel where the bullets came from is suing you for what Stephen Paddock did, that is not a mistake and it is not a technicality. It is a federal lawsuit MGM filed in Nevada state court and in California federal court, naming more than a thousand people who were shot, shot at, lost family members, or just stood in the concert ground that night, asking a judge to declare MGM is not liable. MGM is not the victim here. The 58 people killed and the hundreds wounded are the victims. And the federal lawsuit MGM filed is a tactical move built on one federal statute — the SAFETY Act — that MGM hopes you and your lawyer do not understand well enough to defeat. We do. This page is built to walk you through exactly what MGM is doing, what the law actually says, what your rights are, and what the next 72 hours of your case will look like with our firm at your side. If you are reading this at 2 a.m.…

The Phone Call That Starts Everything It is after midnight when the call comes in. Maybe it is later than that — maybe the survivor has been sitting with the phone in her hand for hours, replaying the moment she woke up to a man crouched at the foot of her bed with his pants undone and a condom out. The man said he knew her. The front desk gave him a key. She screamed, he ran, and the police later found him and charged him with attempted sexual assault. She is calling us because the man who did this is the criminal case, but the business that handed him the key is the civil case — and that is the case Attorney911 was built to fight. This page is for her. It is also for any woman — and the men and children who suffer this same betrayal — who checked into a hotel thinking the room was a sanctuary, and woke up in a crime scene the hotel itself made possible. If you or someone you love was sexually assaulted because a hotel in Gonzales County gave a key to the wrong person, this page explains what the…

The Hotel Handed Him the Key You came to Des Moines for work. A city you had traveled to before, on a trip you had made dozens of times. You checked in at the Embassy Suites, used the deadbolt the way you always do, and went to sleep. Then a hand on your leg. Then a voice telling you not to scream. Then hours you survived by going somewhere else inside your mind. If this is where you are, I want you to hear something before anything else: this was not your fault. What happened to you is the predictable consequence of a system that failed. A front desk that handed a room key to a man who had no business being given one. A maintenance worker who disabled the one lock that could have stopped him. A hotel that had been warned, and looked the other way. We are here to make that system answer for what it did. We are Attorney911, The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC. We represent people who were sexually assaulted in hotels, motels, and other commercial lodging in Iowa and across the country. Ralph Manginello, our managing partner, has spent 27+ years in courtrooms, including…

When the Front Desk Hands a Stranger the Key to Your Room: How Iowa Hotel Negligent Security Law Works The phone rings at 2 a.m. The person on the other end is telling you they were raped inside the very room the hotel rented them. The lock on the door did not hold. The man who climbed into the bed had a key the front desk gave him. The hotel’s own maintenance worker had disabled the safety latch the night before. You are not imagining what went wrong here. You are describing every single failure negligent security law was built to address. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC — and we represent survivors of sexual assault and violent crime in Iowa and across the country. We built this page for the woman who is reading this at 2 a.m., for the family member who flew in after the call from the hospital, and for every survivor who has been told that what happened was “just bad luck” and that the hotel had no duty. That is not the law. The law in Iowa, and the law of premises liability nationwide, has protected people like you for a…

What This Page Is About, and Why You Are Reading It at 2 a.m. If you are reading this, someone you love did not come home from a trip to San Diego. Jariah Edwards was seventeen. She was eight months pregnant. She was on a family vacation in Bay Park when a man she had already blocked, already feared, and already reported to family members drove across state lines in a Lyft, ordered her DoorDash flowers and then a DoorDash vase, and used the next delivery to lure her outside the Airbnb alone. He shot her in the head. Her baby girl was delivered by emergency cesarean at thirty-two weeks, with the prosecutor describing “minimal brain activity as a result of loss of oxygen the child endured while being inside its dead mother.” The shooter, Trevon Williams, now twenty-one, has pleaded not guilty to murder, attempted murder of the baby, and possession of a machine gun, with a special-circumstance allegation of lying in wait that puts the death penalty on the table. The criminal case will run its course in the San Diego County District Attorney’s office and the Superior Court. That is one track. The civil case is a…

You Saw It. The Hotel’s Camera Saw It. Now the Question Is What You Do.

Fort Worth Hotel Sexual Assault Lawsuit: Fairfield Inn & Suites Master Key Negligence — Attorney911 Holds Marriott International and MCR Hotels Accountable for Front Desk Employee’s Gross Violation of Industry Security Protocols, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider Who Knows How the Claims Machine Undervalues Sexual Assault Cases, We Secure the Lock Audit and Surveillance Footage Before the Overwrite, Severe Psychological Trauma and Ongoing Distress for Victims J.E. and L.T., the Firm Has Recovered Millions for Catastrophic Injury Victims — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

The Person Who Let Him In Worked Behind the Front Desk You checked into a hotel in downtown Fort Worth for a few nights of work. A stranger knocked on the door, said he was the husband of one of you. A few hours later, that same stranger was inside the room because an employee of the hotel used a master key to open the door for him. What happened next is something no survivor should have to relive, and what happens next in court is something we can control. The case filed in October 2024 against the operators of that hotel — MCR Investors, MCR Hotels, the entity that runs the building, and the property-management arm — is not a mystery of “how did he get in.” Surveillance video answers that. The mystery is a simpler and uglier one: a hospitality employee used the master key entrusted to the front desk to admit a stranger into a guest’s room in the middle of the night, and the company that wrote the policies and trained (or did not train) the employee is now being asked to answer for the result. We represent survivors of sexual assault and the families who…

Stanford Ph.D. Candidate Raped in San Mateo County Marriott Hotel Room — Attorney911 Holds Negligent Hospitality Chains Accountable for Failing to Protect Guests from Foreseeable Sexual Violence, 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 Key-Card Logs Before the 30-Day Overwrite, California’s Extended Statute of Limitations for Sexual Assault Survivors, the Firm Has Recovered Millions for Victims of Violent Crime — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

A Doctor Was Convicted of Raping Her at a Marriott. The Criminal Case Closed. The Civil Case Is Just Beginning. The headline you read — six years in prison for a hotel rape — is about the criminal case, and the criminal case alone. It tells you what the State of California proved at trial. It does not, and could not, tell you what the survivor is still owed. A criminal conviction punishes the state’s interest in law enforcement. A civil suit compensates her — the lost research, the years of therapy, the night she cannot walk past a hotel lobby without her chest tightening, the job offer she turned down because she could not leave the apartment. The two systems run in parallel. The criminal case is over. The civil case is the one where her name is on the verdict, and California law gives her years to bring it. This page is the full civil-justice map for a survivor of sexual assault by a guest at a San Mateo County hotel — what claims she can bring, against whom, what the evidence is, what it’s worth, and how a firm like ours builds the case that does what…

When a Coach Your Child Trusted Becomes the Person Who Hurt Her You are reading this in the middle of the worst kind of shock. Somewhere between the game and the indictment notice, a person your child trusted with her time, her skill, and her dreams turned that trust into a weapon. Maybe you found out because the prosecutor called. Maybe a relative who already knew finally told you. Maybe your daughter said something that stopped your heart and you have been trying to keep moving ever since. We are the trial team at Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC — and we represent families exactly where you are right now. We know the law. We know the Bronx.
