If you are traveling to Los Angeles or having a staycation, you may rent a property through Airbnb. While the service offers a plethora of unique options, you put your trust in the homeowners to keep their premises safe and warn you about any potential hazards.

Who May Be Liable for a Los Angeles Airbnb Accident?
With homeowners and Airbnb involved, knowing who is responsible for your injuries can be difficult. In California, property owners owe visitors a duty of care to maintain safe conditions, fix known hazards, and warn about potential dangers on their property. These potential dangers may include the following:
- Slippery surfaces
- Tripping hazards
- Non-functioning door or window locks
- Electrical defects or issues
- Construction areas
- Dangerous pools or hot tubs
If a property owner fails to fix a problem or warn you of a potential hazard, causing you to suffer injuries, they may be liable for your damages. However, Airbnb may be responsible for injuries in certain situations. For instance, if Airbnb failed to properly screen a tenant or property for unsafe conditions, they could be held accountable for any resulting injuries. The company may also be liable if they made misleading representations of a property on their site.
Our skilled LA Airbnb injury lawyers at Callahan & Blaine thoroughly investigate your case to determine who is liable for your injuries to seek the justice and compensation you deserve. We are unafraid to face Airbnb in your case and negotiate for a fair settlement.
Does Airbnb Have Host Protection Liability Coverage?
If you are injured while staying in an Airbnb rental, the company offers host protection liability coverage up to $1 million for personal and bodily injuries sustained while staying on the rental property. With this coverage, you may be able to recover damages. Depending on the severity of your injuries, you may receive compensation for the following:
- Past, present, and future medical bills
- Lost wages from missed work
- Loss of earning capacity
- Rehabilitation or physical therapy
- Prescribed medications
- Pain and suffering
- Mental anguish
- Disability or disfigurement
- Reduced quality of life
Our knowledgeable Airbnb injury lawyers diligently calculate your claim’s worth accurately and fiercely advocate for maximum compensation. We understand how to navigate the intricate legal process using innovative strategies and our team’s distinguished skill sets.
