What You Are Facing Right Now You read this because something has already happened. Maybe a family member disappeared into a hotel room she was told was safe. Maybe your child came home with a story that does not hold together and money you cannot explain. Maybe you survived and the case was closed, but the nights are not. The legal system that handled what happened to you treated it as a criminal matter, because trafficking is a crime. We treat it as what it also is: a civil wrong. That means a financial claim against the people who profited, the platforms that facilitated, the properties that looked away, and the systems that failed to act. It means a path to recovery that runs alongside the criminal docket, not behind it. El Paso is not an abstract backdrop for this kind of case. It sits on Interstate 10, which federal law enforcement identifies as a primary artery for human trafficking and narcotics. The city is one of the largest international border crossings in the country. The transient population is enormous. Short-term rental inventory is heavy. The same geography that makes El Paso a logistics hub also makes it a corridor…

The Door That Federal Law Opens When a Hotel Profits From Trafficking It was a 10-month stretch of your life that you did not choose. A man promised things and delivered nothing but violence. He moved you from one budget motel to another along a stretch of Southwest Houston and the FM 1960 corridor. You were seventeen. He booked the rooms. He kept the money. And every night, a parade of men came through doors that the hotels handed over without asking the right questions. When you finally escaped, the trauma did not. It followed you into every room you tried to sleep in afterward. We built this page for you, or for the person you are calling on behalf of — a survivor, a parent, a sibling, a friend. We want you to understand what the law actually allows, what the evidence proves, what the hotels will argue, and what it costs to fight them. Every word below comes from federal statutes, the live federal civil complaint, and the records our firm has reviewed. We are writing this so that when you call us, you already understand what you are walking into. If you or someone you love was…

Hotel Sexual Assault & Negligent Security Lawsuit in Skokie: $1.8M Verdict for Karla Gress After Holiday Inn Chicago Northshore Security Guard Rape — Attorney911 Holds InterContinental Hotels Group & Lakhani Hospitality Accountable for Failing to Protect Guests, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider Who Knows How the Claims Machine Undervalues These Cases, We Preserve the Electronic Keycard Logs & DNA Evidence Before They Disappear, Illinois Premises Liability Law & the Hotel’s Duty of Care, Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

When the Person Hired to Protect You Becomes the One Who Destroys Your Life She was on a business trip. She had a room key, a reservation, and the reasonable belief that the uniformed guard at the front of the Holiday Inn Chicago Northshore in Skokie was there to keep her safe. He wasn’t. On October 2, 2013, an on-duty security guard employed by the hotel raped her in her own room. DNA later linked him to the crime. He was fired, but not for more than a year afterward, and not for the assault. No criminal charges were ever filed. Yet a Cook County jury, years later, found the hotel’s owner legally responsible for the horror that an employee inflicted behind a closed door — and awarded $1.8 million to the survivor. That verdict tells you something important about how Illinois law treats the relationship between an innkeeper and a guest. It tells you that a hotel cannot point at the criminal act of its own employee and say, “Not our problem.” It tells you that the security uniform a guest is trained to trust creates a duty, and that duty can be breached with a verdict at the…

New Rochelle Hotel Sexual Assault & Rape Lawyer — Attorney911 Fights for Survivors of Negligent Security and Premises Liability in Westchester County, NY: Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Attorney Who Knows How Hotels and Their Corporate Owners Deny and Delay, We Preserve the Key-Card Logs, Security Footage, and Incident Reports Before They Disappear, Felony First-Degree Rape and Sexual Abuse Charges, the Firm Has Recovered Millions for Survivors of Violent Crimes — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

If You Were Raped in a New Rochelle Hotel Room, the Hotel Itself May Be Legally Accountable We understand what just happened to you. You checked into a hotel room in Westchester County and were violently sexually assaulted — someone you did not consent to being alone with, in a space the hotel was paid to keep safe for you. You may be reading this at 2 a.m. with shaking hands. You may be reading this with a detective’s case number on a piece of paper. You may be reading this because the criminal case against your attacker is moving but nobody has yet told you that you have a civil case against the hotel itself — a separate path, with separate remedies, that the criminal system alone cannot give you. We built this page to tell you what the criminal system cannot: the hotel that rented you the room had duties it may have broken, and the law gives you a way to hold it accountable. We will walk you through what New York law says about hotel liability for sexual assault, what the federal Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPRA) adds, what evidence is about to disappear if no…

A Loved One Didn’t Come Home From a Beverly Hills Mansion Party — And Someone Is Responsible For That The 911 call came in just before 12:45 a.m. on August 4, 2020. When Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics reached the 13200 block of Mulholland Drive — a stretch of narrow, twisting road carved into the Santa Monica Mountains above Beverly Crest — they found three adults down on the driveway outside a three-story mansion. Two women and one man. One of the women, believed to be around 35 years old, was pronounced dead at the hospital. A second woman was listed in grave condition. A fifth victim, another adult male, self-transported to a local hospital and was later released. A sixth, an adult female, was in stable condition. She went to a party. She did not come home. If that sentence is yours — if you are reading this because your daughter, your sister, your mother, or your friend was one of the five people who were shot on the driveway of a Mulholland Drive mansion while a DJ played and a food truck served food to nearly 200 people inside — then you are in the right place. We…

Your Sister, Your Mother, Your Daughter Was Killed at a House That Should Never Have Held 200 People You are reading this in the part of grief that has no name. The phone call that came before sunrise, the drive to a hospital where the people in scrubs could not look at you, the moment you understood the words “did not survive” were going to be your life from that morning forward. You are not looking for a lawyer because you want to argue. You are looking for one because every question you have asked since the night your loved one was killed at that party on Mulholland Drive has been answered with silence, with a press conference, or with a statement from an insurer that begins with the word “sympathy” and ends with a number that is not enough to bury her. We hear you. And we want to tell you the truth about what the law does, what it does not, and how the family of a 35-year-old mother of three who was shot and killed at a Beverly Crest mansion party in the early hours of August 4, 2020 can hold the right people accountable for what…

You Lost Someone in a House That Should Never Have Hosted That Party You are reading this because your family member — your son, your brother, your child’s father — went to a Halloween party at a house in Orinda on the night of October 31, 2019, and never came home. Five young people died in a single chaotic shootout. The home was advertised on social media as a “mansion party.” More than a hundred people showed up. The night ended in gunfire, panic, people leaping from balconies, and a death count that still haunts a quiet town in the hills east of Oakland. If you are the mother or the young daughter of Javlin County, you are carrying a loss that no civil lawsuit can make whole. But the law does not leave you without recourse. It gives you a way to hold accountable the people whose choices turned a residential rental home into an unsupervised late-night venue for more than a hundred strangers — and a way to make sure your daughter grows up with the financial security her father would have provided.

The Phone Call We Get From Families Hours After a Wrong-Way Highway 24 Wreck The call usually comes at three in the morning, or right after the chaplain has left the hospital room, or from a kitchen table in Orinda, Lafayette, or Moraga where the family is trying to understand what the California Highway Patrol officer just told them on the porch. Sometimes it comes from a survivor lying in a Contra Costa County hospital bed with a broken body and an unbroken question: how did this happen, and what do I do now?

A Halloween Night That Did Not Have To End This Way You are reading this because someone you love walked into a house on a holiday evening and never came home. On Halloween night 2019, five young people were killed and several more wounded in a mass shooting at a rented Airbnb home in Orinda, California — a hilltown of about 19,000 people tucked in the hills east of Oakland, in Contra Costa County. The party had been promoted on social media as a large, open-invite event. The home was a hillside property in an otherwise quiet residential neighborhood. A fight inside the house escalated into gunfire. The Contra Costa County District Attorney’s Office later described the scene as a “bloodbath.” Three of the victims were pronounced dead at the home. Two more died at hospitals. The shooters, themselves young, were arrested and tried; the criminal side of the case has played out in the courts. But for the families of the five who died, the criminal verdict is not the only verdict that matters. There is a second case, hidden inside the first, that the criminal courts cannot touch — the civil case for the lives that were taken…
