  1. Corey Eschweiler On Can I Sue an Airbnb Owner If I’m Injured on Their Property? Airbnb has opened up a new world in traveling in terms of accommodations and experiences. Just like any other rental property, however, a host of accidents and injuries can always occur on an Airbnb property. If you have been injured on such property, you are probably considering filing a lawsuit against the owner. The personal injury lawyers at ER Injury Attorneys explore whether you can sue an Airbnb owner if you’re injured on their property. Airbnb’s Role in Guest Safety While Airbnb hosts the platform by providing a way for hosts and guests to connect, the properties are neither owned nor operated by them. This, in essence, would mean that Airbnb is not directly liable for ensuring safety for guests on their platform. However, Airbnb has certain policies and procedures to protect guests and hosts. Potential Liability of Airbnb Hosts Whether or not you can sue an Airbnb owner for an injury on their property will depend on many factors that include, but are not limited to, the following: • Host negligence: A host may be considered negligent when he knew or should have known about a dangerous condition existing on the property and failed to take reasonable measures to address it. • State and local laws: The laws governing property owner liability vary from state to state. It’s important to consult with a local attorney who is familiar with the laws in the area where you suffered an Airbnb injury. • Airbnb’s Terms of Service: Airbnb’s Terms of Service outline the rights and responsibilities of both hosts and guests. It’s essential to review these terms carefully to understand your rights and obligations. Common Types of Injuries in Airbnb Rentals Injuries on Airbnb properties can occur due to a variety of reasons, including: • Slip and falls: Slippery floors, uneven surfaces, or inadequate lighting can increase the risk of

Seeking medical attention: You will want to document your injuries and seek medical treatment right away. 2.
