Common Causes of Injuries in Las Vegas Hotels
Las Vegas drew a staggering 40,829,900 visitors in 2023. Although most visitors come and go without incident, an injury can send a tourist to a nearby hospital for urgent treatment. The University Medical Center of Southern Nevada handled 8,753 emergency room visits in June 2024.
Hotels on the Strip can be held financially liable for unsafe conditions. Inadequate security is one potential cause for a hospital to be held responsible for someone’s injury. In 2023, Las Vegas saw a drop in aggravated assault cases by approximately 6% compared to the previous year. Other potential causes of injuries can include slick flooring, broken stairs, loose railings, or poor lighting.
Other incidents involve elevator malfunctions, defective furniture, or poor maintenance in pools or spas. Large resorts like Caesars Palace, The Venetian, and MGM Grand experience constant foot traffic. When hotels fail to quickly fix hazards, they may be held financially responsible for guest injuries.
What To Do After an Accident at a Hotel on the Strip
A personal injury can be a stressful ordeal that leaves you in pain and needing medical attention. Hotels are well-staffed, so start by having a hotel attendant either refer you to a hospital or call an ambulance. When you can, take photos, gather witness information, and avoid making statements to hotel staff or insurers.
Report the incident in writing so there is a record of your communications, and keep any replies you receive. Contacting a personal injury lawyer early on can help protect your rights and strengthen your case.
How a Las Vegas Hotel Accident Lawyer Can Help You Recover Compensation
A Las Vegas hotel accident lawyer can play a vital role in advocating for injured plaintiffs following a serious injury at one of the city’s many resorts or casinos. Hotels have a legal duty to maintain safe premises for guests, but with thousands of visitors daily, hazards like wet floors, broken elevators, faulty furniture, or negligent security are not uncommon.
A lawyer can investigate the incident, collect evidence such as surveillance footage or maintenance records, and determine whether hotel staff or management failed to meet safety standards. These cases often involve large insurance companies and corporate legal teams who work to minimize payouts.
Personal injury attorneys in Las Vegas know how to push back against negligent parties who fight to avoid paying for the harm they caused. Lawyers can calculate the full extent of your losses and pursue damages for medical bills, pain and suffering, lost income, and more. With legal guidance, you stand a stronger chance of securing fair compensation and holding the hotel accountable for the harm you suffered.
FAQs
What Must an Injured Guest Prove to Win a Hotel Injury Claim?
To win a hotel injury claim, an injured guest must prove the hotel had a duty of care, breached that duty through negligence, and caused an injury as a result. Common examples of negligence include wet floors, unsafe staircases, or poor security. Documentation of the hazard, medical treatment, and witness statements all help support a claim for compensation after an accident on hotel property.
How Is Compensation Determined in a Hotel Injury Claim?
Compensation in a hotel injury claim is determined by evaluating medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, and any lasting impact on your life. The strength of your evidence, the severity of your injuries, and whether the hotel acted negligently all affect the outcome. Strong documentation and clear proof of fault help increase the chances of a successful claim.
Do Hotels Owe a Duty of Care to Guests?
Hotels owe a duty of care to guests, which means they must keep their property reasonably safe and fix hazards promptly. This includes maintaining clean walkways, providing adequate security, and warning about dangerous conditions. When hotels fail to meet this obligation, they may be held responsible in a civil claim if a guest is injured as a result.
What Makes Hotel Injury Claims in Las Vegas More Complicated?
Hotel injury claims in Las Vegas are often more complicated due to the size of the resorts, corporate ownership, and extensive security systems. Proving fault may require reviewing surveillance footage, maintenance logs, and employee records. Large hotels often have legal teams ready to defend claims, so gathering strong evidence early on is important for pursuing compensation successfully.
What Should You Do if You’re Injured at a Hotel in Las Vegas?
If you’re injured at a hotel in Las Vegas, report the incident to hotel staff, ask for a written report, and seek medical attention. Take photos of the scene, gather witness names, and avoid making statements to hotel management without legal guidance. These steps can help preserve your right to pursue a claim for damages related to the injury.

Retaining Easton and Easton was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! From the initial consultation to our final meeting, they were nothing short of exceptional. I was forced to retain their services after firing my previous attorney for not handling the case properly. I dealt with Gabriel and Brian (partner) exclusively throughout the case. They did as promised and were great communicators throughout the entire process. I will recommend them to anyone I know going through a personal injury case. They were ultimately able to untangle the mess caused by my previous lawyer and get a result that I was extremely happy with. Their staff is exceptional as well and provided top notch customer service. Amera was also extremely helpful and easy to deal with as well.
I was in a pretty bad car accident and decided to have Easton & Easton represent me, Travis Easton to be specific. Travis Easton and his paralegal made the whole process effortless. They were so understanding and helpful! The entire thing was a gigantic mess, yet Travis managed to make it run like clockwork. I would HIGHLY recommend Easton & Easton! If you are ever in need of a personal defense attorney Easton & Easton is the firm to represent you!
