Attorneys for Sexual Assault Victims at Resorts

When Vacations Turn into Traumatic Experiences

Resorts are meant to provide a relaxing escape, offering guests a safe space to unwind. However, without proper safety measures or properly vetted staff, these settings can become the site of serious crimes like sexual assault. Negligence, such as poor security, inadequate lighting, or ignoring past incidents, can put guests at risk.

At Mitchell & West, LLC, we are dedicated to advocating for individuals who have suffered assaults in resort settings due to negligence or inadequate security. Our experienced team is committed to holding responsible parties accountable, helping victims pursue justice, and supporting their path to healing.

If you’ve been assaulted at a resort, you may be entitled to hold the property owner legally and financially responsible. Contact us online or call (305) 783-3301 today!

How Resort Negligence Contributes to Assault

Resorts are responsible for protecting guests from preventable harm. This includes having appropriate lighting, hiring properly trained staff, and responding swiftly to any reports of unsafe behavior. When management cuts corners or ignores signs of risk, guests can suffer the consequences.

Common resort safety failures include:

  • Insufficient security presence or surveillance
  • Allowing unauthorized individuals on the property
  • Failing to respond to guest complaints or prior incidents
  • Hiring staff with known behavioral or criminal issues

By addressing these common safety failures, resorts can create a more secure environment for their guests. Prioritizing safety not only protects visitors but also enhances the resort's reputation and ensures a positive experience for everyone.

Your Rights as a Survivor

Sexual assault in a resort setting may be perpetrated by staff, other guests, or intruders who gained access due to lax security. Regardless of the attacker’s identity, the resort may still bear responsibility if it failed to create a reasonably safe environment.

Victims of sexual assault often experience significant emotional, physical, and financial hardship. Our sexual assault attorneys help clients pursue civil claims that address these damages and hold negligent businesses accountable. A successful claim can provide compensation for therapy, medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.

At Mitchell & West, LLC, we handle these cases with both discretion and determination. We understand how challenging it can be to take that first step, which is why we’re committed to providing steadfast support at every stage of the process.

Our attorneys conduct meticulous investigations, collaborate with trauma-informed experts, and work tirelessly to ensure your voice is heard. Our mission is to pursue justice on your behalf and help you rebuild after an experience no one should have to endure.

If you were sexually assaulted while staying at a resort, you deserve experienced legal counsel on your side. Contact us online or call (305) 783-3301 today to schedule a consultation.
