Why Hotel Injuries Are So Common in Nevada

Millions of visitors travel to Nevada every year for vacations, conventions, and entertainment. With such high traffic, hotels and casinos have a duty to maintain safe premises and protect guests. When they fail, accidents happen, leaving victims with serious injuries, medical bills, and lasting trauma.

At Cogburn Davidson Injury Lawyers, we stand up to powerful hotel and casino corporations that put profits over guest safety. With offices in Las Vegas and Henderson, we represent hotel injury victims across Nevada, preparing every case for trial if necessary.

Common Causes of Hotel and Casino Injuries

Hotel injuries often result from unsafe conditions or negligent security. Examples include:

  • Slip and fall accidents in lobbies, restaurants, and pools
  • Broken handrails or unsafe stairways
  • Inadequate security leading to assaults or theft
  • Defective furniture, elevators, or escalators
  • Food poisoning from hotel restaurants
  • Burns or scalds from hot water or equipment
  • Falling objects or poorly maintained fixtures

Hotels have a legal duty to correct hazards and protect guests from foreseeable harm.

Injuries Often Caused in Hotel Accidents

Guests may suffer a wide range of injuries, including:

  • Traumatic brain injuries from falls
  • Broken bones and fractures
  • Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
  • Cuts, bruises, and scarring
  • Burns and chemical injuries
  • Emotional trauma from assaults or unsafe conditions

Our attorneys investigate every angle to identify all responsible parties and maximize recovery.

If you haven’t reached out yet to Cogburn Davison I highly recommend you do! I can’t even begin to explain what great customer service I received from when first walking in the door and having the receptionist be so nice and friendly up until my case settled! The attorney Hunter S. Davidson and his paralegal Jessica Mejia were not only friendly and compassionate but they made sure me and my family understood every step of this lawsuit! My father was neglected in a nursing home and I couldn’t find an attorney in Vegas who specialized in these type of cases. Once my friend recommended me to Cogburn Davidson and I saw their exceptional customer service I knew I was in the right place. They were able to get my father and our family the justice he deserved! Don’t hesitate and call Cogburn Davidson, you won’t regret it!
