Re: hotel security

Sure you can sue them. Will you win? Probably not. That's the critical thing to figure out.

That said, you could certainly talk to an attorney who does this sort of thing, see what they say.

Avvo (a v v o ) can be a useful place to look for attorneys by practice area.

Hope this helps. Elizabeth Powell
