Attorney Secures Settlement for Woman Bit by Bed Bugs at an Oregon Holiday Inn Express  Our client, Ms. A, a nurse from Utah, was bit nearly 60 times by bed bugs while staying at a Holiday Inn Express located in Oregon.

The facts of Ms. A’s claim are as follows: Ms. A spent one night at the Holiday Inn Express. When she awoke in the morning, she noticed a bed bug crawling on her arm. Ms. A immediately swat and killed the bug. Next, Ms. A got out of bed, observed more bed bugs on the bed and bites on her arms. Then, Ms. A called the pest control company that she uses at her home to inquire about what she had to do to prevent bringing the bed bugs home with her. Moments later, Ms. A called the front desk and reported her findings and injuries. The receptionist told Ms. A she would send someone from the maintenance department to her room. When the maintenance man showed up at Ms. A’s room she showed him the live bed bugs, dead bed bugs and carcasses.
