Injury at ARIA Resort? Learn Your Rights and How to Seek Compensation

ARIA Resort & Casino is known for its luxury, modern architecture, and high-end amenities. 

Unfortunately, accidents can and do happen, even in the most lavish environments. The team at Shook & Stone understands how overwhelming handling these situations can be. We’re here to provide aid in understanding your rights, prove liability, and fight for the compensation you deserve. 

What Are the Most Common Injuries at ARIA Resort & Casino? 

 ARIA’s enormous property, foot traffic, and range of amenities create opportunities for injury. Slip and fall incidents are common in areas like lobbies, restaurants, pool decks, spas, and casino or bar areas where spills may not be promptly cleaned up. Trip and fall accidents can result from obstructions in the walkway, uneven surfaces, damaged flooring or carpeting, particularly in high-traffic areas. Negligent security is another concern, with incidents potentially occurring in hotel rooms, hallways, the casino floor, parking garages, nightclubs like Jewel, or large events such as pool parties and conventions. Food poisoning is another possible risk due to the variety of dining options available, including restaurants, cafes, buffets, and room service. Elevator and escalator malfunctions pose dangers, while defective furniture or fixtures, such as broken chairs or beds in rooms, suites, or dining areas, can also cause injury. Lastly, assaults or instances of excessive force may occur, whether involving other guests or, in rare cases, security or staff. 

 What Should I Do Immediately If I’m Injured at ARIA? 

 Time is critical after an accident, and the steps you take immediately can significantly impact your health, safety, and legal case. First and foremost, seek medical attention right away, either through on-site emergency services or by visiting the nearest hospital. Your well-being is the top priority. Once safe, report the incident to ARIA management or security, and complete an official incident report. Make sure to request a copy for your records. It’s also essential to document everything: take clear photos or videos of the scene, your injuries, and any hazardous conditions that may have caused the accident. If there are witnesses, collect their names and contact information. Preserve any physical evidence, such as damaged clothing or footwear, that could support your claim. Finally, avoid making detailed statements to casino staff or insurance representatives, and do not sign any documents without first consulting a qualified personal injury attorney, like us at Shook &Stone. 

 How Do I Report an Injury to ARIA Management and Get a Copy of the Incident Report? 

 Notify a manager, the hotel front desk, or a security officer, and insist on completing a written incident report. Consider taking a photo of the completed report if permitted, and be sure to request the incident number along with the name of the employee who responded. It’s also wise to follow up in writing, via email or certified mail, to formally document your request. If you encounter difficulties in obtaining the report, Shook & Stone can assist you in securing it through the appropriate legal channels. 

How Can I Prove ARIA Was Negligent for My Accident? 

 To successfully claim compensation, you must show that ARIA (or its staff) acted negligently: 

 Duty of Care – ARIA has a legal obligation to maintain a safe environment for guests. 

 Breach of Duty – You must show that ARIA failed in this duty (e.g., not cleaning a spill, poor security, defective fixtures). 

 Causation – The breach must be directly linked to your injury. 

 Damages – You suffered actual losses (medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering). 

 A personal injury attorney can help gather surveillance footage, witness accounts, incident reports, and expert testimony to build your case. 

 Can I Claim Compensation If I Was Assaulted at an ARIA Nightclub or Pool? 

 Yes, depending on the circumstances, you may be entitled to compensation if you were assaulted at an ARIA nightclub or pool. Property owners like ARIA have a legal duty to provide adequate security to protect guests. If they failed to monitor intoxicated or aggressive individuals, properly train or supervise their staff, or provide sufficient security for large gatherings or high-traffic venues like nightclubs, they could be held liable for injuries caused by third parties. In some cases, this liability may also extend to issues such as inadequate lighting, malfunctioning security systems, or a failure to intervene when a dangerous situation was clearly developing. 

 What Is ARIA’s Responsibility for Guest Safety in Hotel Rooms and Common Areas? 

 Under Nevada premises liability laws, ARIA is legally required to maintain its rooms, hallways, elevators, stairwells, and all common areas in a safe condition for guests. This responsibility includes conducting regular inspections to identify and correct potential hazards, providing adequate security measures, and responding promptly to complaints or reports of danger. These obligations cover a wide range of issues, from structural hazards and broken locks to infestations like bedbugs or any other unsafe conditions that could pose a risk to guest safety. 

 Are There Specific Risks Associated with ARIA’s Modern Design or Technology? 

 ARIA’s sleek, innovative environment, while luxurious, can also introduce unique safety risks if not properly maintained. Touchscreens or automated kiosks may malfunction or cause confusion, potentially leading to accidents or delays during emergencies. Smart room technology controlling lighting, curtains, or temperature could fail, creating conditions that affect guest safety. Additionally, the resort’s complex architecture, with its sleek glass features, long walkways, and low lighting, may increase the likelihood of slips, trips, or falls. These high-end design elements must be consistently monitored and maintained. 

 What If I Was Injured During a Convention or Event Held at ARIA? 

 Liability for an injury during a convention or event at ARIA may rest with ARIA itself, the event organizer, or a third-party vendor, depending on the circumstances. Common risks at these events include poorly secured displays or equipment, electrical or tripping hazards, overcrowded spaces, blocked exits, and unsafe setup or teardown practices. Determining who is legally responsible requires a thorough investigation of the event’s planning and contractual arrangements, something an experienced attorney can handle to ensure all liable parties are held accountable. 

 How Long Do I Have to File an Injury Lawsuit Against ARIA in Nevada? 

 In Nevada, you typically have two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, specific factors may shorten or extend this timeline. It’s critical to act quickly to preserve evidence and protect your rights. 

How ARIA and MGM Resorts May Handle Your Claim… 

 Corporations like MGM Resorts have vast legal and financial resources dedicated to protecting their bottom line. Their goal is to reduce payouts, deny liability, or push for quick, low-value settlements. They may try to downplay your injuries, offer you less compensation than you deserve, or delay and ignore your requests altogether. In situations like this, you need an advocate who can level the playing field and fight for your best interests. 

 That’s where Shook & Stone comes in.
