How Casino Accidents Factor into Premises Liability

Casino accidents are typically cases of premises liability. Property owners bear a responsibility to keep their premises safe for people who visit and work there, and a failure to do so can cause innocent people to suffer serious injury and even wrongful death. Whether a property owner has allowed their building to fall into a state of disarray without doing anything about it or attempted to fix a dangerous issue and failed, they can ultimately be held responsible for negligence when a victim files a premises liability claim.

Having a successful case is easier said than done. In order to win compensation, victims will have to prove that their injuries were caused by the owner’s negligence. Casinos, typically have their own teams of lawyers for such occasions and will do everything they can to undermine your claim and deny that negligence took place or that your injuries occurred because of dangerous property conditions. Having a trial attorney like one from our firm on your side can give you the legal edge you need to defend your rights.

Accidents that happen the most often in casinos include:

  • Slip and fall accidents
  • Assault by security guards
  • Assault by other patrons
  • Pedestrian accidents in and around casino entrances
  • Accidents in casino hotel rooms and common areas
  • Assaults due to negligent security

Injuries can range in type and severity depending on the accident, but since slip and falls are the most common type of premises liability claim, it’s likely that victims can suffer from broken bones, spinal cord and neck injuries, and head and brain injuries.

Of course, the casino and its insurance provider will likely meet this claim with fierce opposition. To counter the power and resources of a wealthy casino, it is important to have experienced legal representation on your side. Our attorneys have successfully handled numerous personal injury suits for clients throughout Pennsylvania and are prepared to handle the most complex and contentious cases.

Damages You Can Recover After a Casino Injury

Because casino injuries can be serious and challenging to recover from, a victim’s damages are likely to be high. If you slipped and broke your hip on the casino floor, for instance, you might have to spend thousands of dollars to undergo surgery, stay in the hospital, and purchase equipment like a cane or walker to get around.

Our lawyers can help you calculate just how much you’ve lost and pursue the following damages for you:

  • Medical bills for hospitalization, medication, surgery, physical therapy, and future treatments
  • Lost income for wages you couldn’t collect because of your injuries, as well as future wages
  • Property damage for any items that were lost or broken in your accident
  • Pain and suffering, which can include emotional distress, anxiety, PTSD, and more

We’ve Been Helping Clients Since 1962

Suing a casino can be difficult because the business is probably ready to defend itself with a contracted team of attorneys. Casinos are even more likely to have a corporate defense team that will challenge your claim in any form that it can. To give yourself a fighting chance against these powerful litigators and arbitrators, we recommend you get our Schuylkill casino injury attorneys on your side immediately.
