Common Hotel and Casino Injuries
Hotels and casinos are legally obligated to maintain safe premises for their guests. When they fail to meet this standard, serious injuries can occur. Common accidents include slip and fall accidents caused by wet floors, uneven surfaces, or poorly maintained walkways; negligent security, which can result in assaults, theft, or other harm to guests; elevator and escalator accidents due to faulty maintenance causing sudden stops, falls, or other injuries; swimming pool accidents from inadequate supervision, slippery pool decks, or unsafe conditions; food poisoning caused by consuming improperly prepared or stored food at a hotel or casino restaurant; and falling objects such as poorly secured fixtures like light fixtures or decorations that can cause harm.
Who Is Liable for Hotel or Casino Injuries?
Hotels and casinos are responsible for ensuring their premises are reasonably safe for guests. Under premises liability law, property owners can be held accountable for injuries caused by hazards they knew about—or should have known about—but failed to address. This liability includes negligence in maintaining clean and safe floors, providing adequate lighting in public areas, installing proper security systems, training staff to handle hazards appropriately, and conducting regular equipment inspections and maintenance. Learn more about liability and how we approach such cases on our blog.
Steps to Take After a Hotel or Casino Injury
Taking the right steps immediately after your injury can strengthen your case and improve your chances of receiving compensation. Notify hotel or casino management and request an official incident report. Document the scene by taking photos or videos of the accident, including any hazards contributing to your injury. Seek medical attention to ensure your injuries are treated and documented. Save all medical records, bills, and communication with the hotel or casino. Finally, contact Lach Injury Law as soon as possible to protect your rights and build a strong case.
