Many couples and families choose to stay in one of the many cabins for rent in eastern Tennessee. Cabins offer a wonderful way to be in a home away from home. Many of the rental cabins include amenities such as gas grills, fire places, Jacuzzis, saunas, pool tables, foosball, dart boards, indoor and outdoor pools, and decks with swings that overlook the mountains. Owners understand to attract guests they must offer rental cabins that have great amenities and lavish decorations. However, rental cabins and the property they are on must be safe for use. Cabin owners can be held liable if a guest is injured while renting the property.

Holding Someone Accountable For Your Injuries

If you can prove that an unsafe condition existed on the property and you were injured because of the unsafe condition, you are entitled to be compensated. The liable party could be the owner of the cabin, the management company renting the cabin, a contractor, designer, builder, or other party.  Examples of reasons why you would file a premises liability lawsuit for a rental cabin accident include but are not limited to:

  • The owner or management company failed to maintain the property and/or make necessary repairs causing an unsafe condition.
  • The rental cabin was designed poorly creating an unsafe condition that led to an accident.
  • The rental cabin was constructed with sub-standard materials and/or faulty workmanship.
  • The rental cabin was furnished with unsafe equipment and/or materials.

In order to receive damages from the liable party, you must prove that the owner or other party caused the dangerous condition to happen or the owner or other party knew or should have known the dangerous condition existed but did nothing to correct the problem. You must also prove that your injury was a direct result of the dangerous condition and that you suffered damages as a result of the injury.

Because premises liability lawsuits are often complex and require comprehensive investigations to identify the responsible parties and to prove fault, it is in your best interest to consult with an experienced Knoxville premises liability attorney.

Some of the cabins in eastern Tennessee are owned by corporations that are not even located in Tennessee. Therefore, you must battle out-of-state companies represented by insurance companies that aggressively fight rental cabin lawsuits. Our personal injury attorneys have the skill, resources, and knowledge to stand up to these large companies to fight for your right to receive a fair and just settlement for your losses, damages, and injuries.
