HOSPITALITY

Buckley, Seacord, & Justice has extensive experience representing members of the region’s hospitality and entertainment industry including major restaurant chains, hotel and motel properties and a variety of local entertainment venues. The firm also represents numerous liability carriers providing coverage to these businesses. Our attorneys handle matters ranging from simple slip and falls to more complex claims involving criminal assaults by third parties and liquor liability claims.

The defense of these claims is predicated on a clear understanding of our clients’ business operations and the practical realities they face. Accordingly, we seek participation from our clients in constructing a defense from the ground up.

An effective defense also requires a working knowledge of the pertinent laws and regulations governing the hospitality industry.

The firm also enjoys working relationships with recognized experts on premises security, building codes, human factors and similar subjects frequently encountered in claims against hospitality clients.
