Have You Been Injured While Attending a San Antonio Convention or Conference?

Types Of Injuries At San Antonio Convention Centers
San Antonio is home to many popular convention venues and convention centers, including hotels that frequently hold conferences. Unfortunately, premises accidents are not uncommon in these and other venues.
- Henry B. González Convention Center
- Norris Conference Centers
- San Antonio Shrine Auditorium
- Freeman Expo Hall
- The Witte Museum
- San Antonio River Walk Downtown
- MACRI Visitor Center
- Fiesta Gardens Building
- Marriott San Antonio Airport
- The Event Center at Plaza Lecea
Some accidents and injuries that occur in these venues include:
- Slip-and-fall injuries: Wet floors, uneven surfaces or poorly maintained areas can lead to serious falls
- Tripping hazards injuries: Poorly placed cables or obstructed walkways may cause trip-and-fall accidents
- Inadequate security injuries: Lack of proper security can result in injuries from altercations or criminal activity
- Exposure to harmful substances: Hazardous materials, poorly ventilated spaces and improper handling of substances can lead to potentially severe health risks
Convention organizers and venue owners have a legal duty to provide a safe environment – failure to do so could open the way for a premises liability claim.
Negligence In Premises Liability Cases
To hold a venue or event organizer responsible for your injuries, you must prove they were negligent. Typically, that means establishing these elements:
- Duty of care: They had a duty to keep the premises safe.
- Breach of duty: They failed to meet this duty by neglecting safety measures.
- Causation: Their negligence directly led to injuries.
- Damages: You suffered injury and damages, including medical bills, lost wages, or pain and suffering.
We can help you collect the evidence required to prove negligence, potentially strengthening your San Antonio compensation claim.
