Hospitality

The complexity of our hospitality law practice is defined by the diversity of the industries that make up the field, including restaurants and other food service facilities, travel and lodging, and event, meeting and recreation venues. Our attorneys in the Hospitality Group have deep nationwide experience in providing advice and litigation representation to owners and operators of hotels, restaurants, bars, spas, resorts, amusement venues, private clubs and convention venues.

The troublesome legal issues confronting the industry that are regularly addressed by our experienced hospitality law practitioners include liability to guests, ADA compliance, unique employment exposures, and regulatory and health concerns.  Our attorneys regularly help clients reduce the risk of litigation, advise on important regulatory issues, defend guest and employee claims, prosecute and defend against vendor lawsuits, and structure contractual and real estate deals.  Our attorneys are also experienced in working with the complex relationships among the several firms that may have interests in a single facility’s ownership and operation, including franchise agreements and litigation.  We help clients identify and protect their intellectual property, including representation in licensing and breach of contract matters.

Whether it involves formulating the most creative approach to contract resolution, tenaciously defending or prosecuting a lawsuit, or devising the best regulatory protocols, our team of skilled hospitality law practitioners is available to aid our clients in all facets of this complex industry.
