SLIP & FALL ACCIDENT ATTORNEYS IN LAS VEGAS, NEVADA

The moment you lose your footing and can’t regain control, an alarm goes off. You are going down. But it’s not just a clumsy moment. You slipped because beneath your feet was a dangerous surface and no warning. Dangerous flooring or surface conditions outside of your control play an enormous role in these types of accidents that we often refer to as "slip and falls." Our Las Vegas slip fall attorneys can help you today.

What is considered a slip & fall liability case?

Nevada slip and fall cases are most commonly filed when you have been injured on private properties, but they can also occur in public spaces such as parks, sidewalks, and government property. In order to file a successful slip & fall claim in Las Vegas, you must be able to prove three things:

1. The surface you slipped or tripped on was hazardous

2. The property owner/manager was aware of the dangerous conditions - or should have reasonably known about the safety hazard

3. The dangerous conditions are what caused your injury

If you have slipped or fallen because someone else's failure to provide a reasonably safe condition, Nevada law allows you to seek compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. We have vast experience with slip and fall cases, both in court and out. In fact, we have several six-figure settlements in just the last few years.

What is considered a hazardous surface?

Though every situation is unique, there are a few common scenarios in which slip and fall accidents occur. The following are some (not all) examples:

• Torn or damaged carpeting

• Poor lighting

• Safety code (OSHA) violations (e.g.. no railings, uneven stairs, etc.)

• Cluttered walkways

• Wet floors

• Holes in the ground following construction

• Damaged flooring (e.g. large cracks, gaps between different surfaces, etc.)

• The absence of a warning sign for uneven, or otherwise unsafe floors

• Proper maintenance removing any debris or trash

Common scenarios in Las Vegas slip and fall lawsuits are:

• Slipping in a hotel shower because the bath mat does not provide adequate traction

• Tripping over frayed carpeting

• Slipping on a spilled drink in a casino

• Stumbling over uneven pavement

• Tumbling down uneven or stairs without a proper railing

• An escalator malfunction

• Falling off gym equipment

• Slipping by a swimming poor where either defective drainage or a slick surface contributes to your fall

These are just a few examples to give you an idea of the kinds of situations that can cause slip and fall injuries in Nevada. The best way to determine if you have a slip and fall case is to consult with an experienced slip & fall injury attorney in Las Vegas. At LBC Law Group, we have extensive experience representing slip and fall victims and pursuing the compensation they deserve.

PRIOR LAS VEGAS SLIP AND FALLS HANDLED BY LBC LAW GROUP

One of our clients visited a Las Vegas gas station, but slipped on a slick, wet spot on the pavement right outside of the store. The insurance company initially denied liability, claiming that our client was at fault for not paying attention to the puddle of oil on the ground. Our attorneys refused to take no for an answer, and continued fighting because we believed in our client and her significant injuries. We helped her find amazing medical providers in Las Vegas and she required nearly $50,0000 in medical treatment. After a LOT of hard work, our client walked away with a six (6) figure settlement.
