Las Vegas Slip and Fall Accident Attorneys

Owners of property in Nevada, whether that property is a casino, a hotel, a store, an apartment, or a private home, have a duty to keep their premises in reasonably safe condition to prevent visitors from being injured in an accident or attack. If you are injured in a slip and fall accident, fire, assault, or other type of incident, you are entitled to recover the full amount of medical bills and lost earnings in the past and the future. Your spouse is entitled to recover for the loss of your services and consortium.

The lawyers and staff at Jack Bernstein & Associates in Las Vegas have the financial resources and experience to help you pursue the maximum compensation for your injuries caused by a slip and fall, negligent security, or a fire accident. Our lawyers have obtained numerous settlements and verdicts in excess of $1 million for personal injury victims.

One of the most common personal injury settings is an apartment where the landlord has not kept the building or premises in a safe condition. Landlords have a duty to repair dangerous property conditions that they are aware of or should be aware of. Many times, landlords do not repair broken steps, cracked sidewalks, rotting wood, or other dangerous conditions on their property, causing you to get hurt. If this happens, the landlord is legally responsible for the damages you suffer. Landlords also have a responsibility to have safe locking devices on doors, proper smoke detector protection, and safe electrical systems to protect you from injury in a fire or break-in.

It does not matter whether you have a written or oral agreement to stay at the property or are simply visiting a friend or relative when you are hurt. If you have been injured due to the careless refusal of a landlord to fix dangerous property conditions, you have a right to recover full compensation for your losses. Your personal injury lawsuit can send a message to the landlord that they need to keep their property safe so that other people are not injured.

In any kind of slip and fall accident or premises liability case, it is important to contact a lawyer as soon as possible to investigate quickly and preserve evidence. We have seen cases where broken steps have been repaired the next day, potholes filled, and other dangerous property conditions corrected. Our lawyers have extensive experience in gathering the evidence needed to present your slip and fall accident case or other injury claim to an insurance company effectively in order to obtain the full amount of money damages that you are entitled to.
