Short-Term Rental (Airbnb/VRBO) Injury Claims
Short-Term Rental (Airbnb/VRBO) Injury Claims in the Bay Area
Just like other personal injury claims or lawsuits, claims involving short-term rentals (STRs) are based on negligence. If you have been injured at an STR, you may have a claim not only against the owner or host of the property, but also against the company or platform you booked the reservation on.
Just as a hotel would have to compensate you if you were injured due to their negligence during your stay, an STR, like Airbnb or VRBO, may also be liable for injuries you sustained during your stay at one of their properties.
At Mitchell & Danoff Law Firm, we fight for clients and help them obtain compensation not only from the homeowners or hosts of these STRs, but also the companies that you may book your stays on.
Circumstances Common in STR (Airbnb/VRBO) Cases
Have you or someone you know been the victim of an assault at a short-term rental? Have you been the victim of gun violence at an Airbnb or VRBO? Have you or someone you know been the victim of sexual assault at an STR?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you are likely entitled to significant compensation. Call us immediately and let us do the investigation and ensure you get the compensation you deserve in these unfortunate circumstances.

We are pioneers in getting the most compensation possible for our clients when they are injured at STRs.

- Assaults during your stay or time at an Airbnb or VRBO
