If you were hurt at a hotel as a guest or other visitor, you may be able to seek compensation for your physical, emotional, and financial losses. Nevada laws require hotels to create spaces that are safe for those who visit them, meaning they need to do everything possible to reduce the risk of harm.
When that does not happen, and you suffer serious injuries, a Las Vegas hotel accident lawyer from Shook & Stone Injury Lawyers is ready to work on your case. We have helped more than 30,000 clients in their time of need. Talk to our Las Vegas premises liability lawyer today.
Types of Hotel Accidents We Can Help You With
Our over 25 years of experience enable our team to pursue fair compensation for any losses victims have when we can prove the hotel was negligent in some manner.
It is critical that you know you have the right to pursue legal action even if you are unsure who is responsible. Some of the types of hotel accident cases our hotel accident attorney in Las Vegas handles include:
- Exposure to chemicals, fumes, or smoke
- Falls from unstable balconies, stairs, or landings
- Electrical-related injuries
- Elevator-related injuries
- Abuse from security guards
- Slip and fall accidents
- Assault by others
- Severe injury due to unsanitary conditions, including the presence of bed bugs
In each of these situations, our legal team will investigate what happened to determine if you can hold the hotel accountable. To be negligent, we must demonstrate that they knew of the risk or should have known and failed to take action.
Your injury must have occurred as a direct result of that negligence, and you must have suffered financial or physical injuries.
How We Can Build Your Case with Hotel Evidence
Hotels in Las Vegas have become more digitally enhanced than ever before. When you are hurt due to the negligence of the hotel or staff, those cameras can help you to prove what took place.
That is just one component of the evidence we work to obtain to build your case.
- We seek videos and photos of any incidents leading up to the accident.
- Witness statements can corroborate what you stated.
- We use repair and maintenance records to demonstrate unsafe conditions.
- Police reports of assault cases can work to prove that someone caused your injuries on the property.
- Other claims like your own can prove that others suffered the same types of injuries and losses.
By providing a thorough investigation into your case, we determine not just the cause but also who is at fault. We can then use that information to seek compensation from all parties at fault, even if it is a third party providing services at the hotel.

Factors That Complicate Hotel Accident Cases
In a simple and straightforward accident where you have no lasting injuries, filing a claim does not have to be challenging. However, insurance companies, hotel workers, and others tend to make these claims more complicated, and that often leads to the denial of compensation you are rightly owed.
Some of the most common complications we see in hotel accident cases in Las Vegas include:
- Pre–existing conditions. If you have an injury, such as back pain, and you seek compensation for back pain after a fall at the hotel, the insurance company will flag that.
- Shared responsibility in your case. Under Nevada’s modified comparative negligence law (NRS: Chapter 41), you may still have the right to receive compensation if you were less than 50% at fault.
- Permanent disability. In cases where you suffer permanent disability, meaning that you are not likely to ever fully recover, your losses are likely far greater, and that can make it harder to receive fair compensation.
Our attorney knows that it is critical for you to recover fair damages after a hotel accident so you can get back to your life. Yet, insurance companies for hotels are not going to treat you fairly or help you recover as much compensation as you deserve. That is why you need a trusted advocate in a difficult situation.
Do Not Wait to Act
Under the state’s statute of limitations, victims of personal injury have two years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit in a Nevada courtroom against the at-fault party. If you wait beyond this, and you do not meet one of the very limited exceptions to this rule, you may not be able to seek compensation.
Because these cases take time to build, we strongly recommend speaking to our attorney as soon as possible to start working to uncover evidence to prove the value of your case. Review our resources to learn more about your case today.
