A trip to popular casino resorts across the United States can be tons of fun. Whether you’re visiting Las Vegas, Atlantic City, or one of the many tribal or commercial casinos nationwide, you’ll find everything from gambling and fine dining to cocktails, spa services, and world-class entertainment, what more could you need? Casinos are essentially playgrounds for adults, but like any recreational venue, accidents can happen. If you’re injured in a casino accident, you may have a valid personal injury claim and be entitled to financial compensation. Casino operators have a legal duty to maintain safe premises for their guests. Find out if you have a claim today by consulting with an experienced Casino injury attorney at Munley Law.
Steps to Take After a Casino Injury
When an injury or accident happens, you might immediately feel embarrassed and try to downplay the incident. However, if you’re seriously injured, seek medical help; you won’t always know the extent of your injuries immediately. As soon as you can safely do so, take these important steps to ensure you have everything you need if you choose to pursue a casino injury claim:
- Report the incident to casino management
- Document everything immediately by writing down or recording your recollection of events and taking photos and videos
- Gather witness information so your attorney can use witnesses to make a strong case on your behalf
- Preserve evidence by keeping all photos, videos, and medical records related to your case

Establishing Casino Negligence: How We Build Your Case
Casino injury claims can include premises liability and personal injury law. Your Munley Law personal injury attorney has experience in both of these areas as they apply to casino accidents and are well-versed in all the legal action options available to you.
Your Munley law casino injury attorney will begin by identifying potentially liable parties in your case. Parties can include:
- Casino property owners
- Casino managers and employees
- Negligent security
Casino owners and employees are legally required to exercise reasonable care to protect your health and safety on casino premises. When employees and casino owners fail to protect you, your casino injury lawyer will collect all evidence in your case to demonstrate negligence. This will include documenting damages, interviewing witnesses, and connecting with the casino’s legal team.
Once your Munley Law casino injury attorney knows the ins and outs of your case, we will begin negotiations with the casino’s insurance company. Don’t let casinos, their legal team, or insurance companies deny responsibility. Schedule your free consultation with our skilled premises liability attorneys today.
Your Rights as an Injured Casino Guest
When you are injured at a casino due to a dangerous property condition, you are likely eligible to recover compensation under premises liability law. Property owners and employees have an obligation to prevent casino injuries; when they don’t, they should be held liable, and you should receive fair compensation. When you seek compensation in a premises liability claim, you can seek a few different types of compensation from the at-fault party, including:
- Medical expenses
- Lost wages
- Loss of earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
Casino accident claims are subject to strict time limits known as statutes of limitations, which vary by state. These deadlines determine how long you have from the date of your accident to file a legal claim. If you miss this deadline, you may lose your right to seek compensation entirely. To protect your legal rights and ensure your claim is filed within the applicable time limit, consult with a personal injury attorney as soon as possible after your casino accident.

Casino Injury Settlement Values
What your casino injury claim is worth will depend on a few different factors. To determine the maximum compensation in premises liability claims, we look at the following factors:
- The type and severity of your injury
- The cost of your medical bills and future care needs
- Your needs for specialized care
- Lost wages and loss of future earnings
- The psychological and emotional impact
- Expenses incurred for care, modifying your home, car, and other aspects of life to meet your post-accident needs
Casino injury claims can be lengthy. In the best-case scenario, your casino injury lawyer will be able to negotiate a settlement with the casino’s insurance quickly and get compensation to you in as little as a few months. In complicated cases where settlement just isn’t possible, your attorney will take the case to trial. The preparation and timeline for the trial can be over a year. Fortunately, your experienced attorney will be with you every step of the way.
