Rose Injury Law has extensive experience representing those who have been seriously injured or lost a loved one while staying in an Airbnb, Vrbo, or other short-term rental property. Each year, millions of vacationers turn to Airbnb and Vrbo instead of a traditional hotel, and trust that those companies are providing them with a safe, well-vetted property to bring their families to. As those who have experienced tragedy at an
Airbnb or Vrbo property have come to learn, that could not be farther from the case. 

The unfortunate truth about renting an Airbnb or Vrbo property is that Airbnb and Vrbo themselves have virtually no involvement in verifying that the property is safe for guests. Instead, they rely exclusively on hosts who often do not have the time, resources, and expertise to make sure their property is safe, secure, and complies with state and local safety codes. This unfortunate truth is buried behind Airbnb and Vrbo online listings of a beautiful properties, creating a false sense of security that too many have fallen victim to. 
 
Over the years, Mr. Rose has represented parents and families who have lost children to hidden dangers in short-term rentals, including pool drownings (where families were rented properties with pools that had defective pool fences or otherwise did not comply with Florida’s pool safety laws) and toxic substances left behind by prior renters. He has also represented those who were seriously injured due to dangerous and negligently maintained conditions in short-term rentals.
