What Causes Casino Injuries?
When casino owners don’t take care of their properties, everyone who goes there is at risk of getting injured. Casino owners should ensure that the building and people are safe, but regular maintenance and security upkeep is also essential. All of the following may contribute to injuries:
Slip and Fall. Not cleaning up spills or having old, uneven carpets all could cause someone to fall. People can get concussions, sprains, and bruises from falls.
Unsafe Equipment. Everything in the casino needs to be secure so the patrons aren’t at risk from something falling or tipping over.
Overcrowding. Too many people in a casino can lead to trampling injuries. Rooms shouldn’t be over capacity and the casino needs to monitor that.
Security Issues. Sometimes, people can get in fights at a casino. There needs to be security to stop any attacks by an angry or intoxicated individual.
Parking Lot Accidents. Casino parking lots need to have clear signage, lighting, and even pavement so everyone can navigate the property safely.
What Should You Do After Sustaining a Casino Injury?
Your actions after a casino injury could possibly affect your claim. It’s important to take care of yourself and make sure you don’t do anything to jeopardize your claim and settlement.
Go to a Doctor. Call 911 if you need medical attention immediately. If there isn’t an emergency, you should still visit a medical professional for an evaluation as soon as possible to see if you have injuries. Before you leave the casino, you should file a detailed report about the accident while it’s still fresh in your mind. Be sure to note how it happened and how you were hurt.
Keep Evidence of Your Injuries. You should document your injuries with photographs so you have visual evidence. Also get copies of medical documents that details what you’ve had to do since you were injured. You should include visiting doctors, hospitals, any procedures you needed to have, prescriptions, and rehabilitation. If anyone from the casino apologized to you for your injury, get their name and contact information.
Hire a Casino Injury Lawyer. Don’t speak to people from the casino until you’ve spoken with a trusted casino injury lawyer. The casino will most likely have insurance representatives who will want you to make a statement or to settle this without an attorney to help you out. They want to settle the matter as quickly as possible and won’t be working hard to get you compensation. They can use any statements you make against you and could reduce your final settlement. Your lawyer can facilitate communication between you and the casino representatives.

Corbin has been great. I highly recommend him if you’re looking for someone who will be honest and straightforward with you about your case from beginning to end.
Corban represented my wife and I in a personal injury case. He briefed us at the very beginning as to what to expect and lived up to all of our expectationsHe proved to be expeditious and thorough throughout the whole process. We highly recommend him to anyone needing legal representation.
I highly recommend Corban Gunn. I am from Chicago and I while I was vacationing in Biloxi, I had an injury to my foot. I needed an attorney to assist with getting the medical bills paid, and a friend of mine, suggested I contact Corban Gunn.I contacted Corban and he was immediately responsive and opened a case on my behalf regarding my claim. Corban and his paralegal, updated me frequently with the case status. I never needed to worry about my case falling through the cracks. They were in full control, very attentive and it was a smooth process. I attended a deposition with Corban, and he was very polite, not just to me but opposing counsel too. It was a very comfortable setting, Corban spent time with me the day before prepping me with questions that may be asked by opposing counsel. The deposition was stress free and nothing to be nervous about.Corban was able to reach a fair settlement on my behalf.
Mr. Corban Gunn really helped my husband and family! He was very informative, easy to work with, and on top of everything! He kept us informed every step of the way. We would highly recommend him to anyone.
Corban is an outstanding lawyer with extensive experience and knowledge of personal injury. Our case was complicated, but he was committed to our case and worked through the fine details. He helped us move forward from the accident and gave us a positive outcome.
I was home bound after a car accident and Mr. Gunn made a house call to meet with me. When another attorney turned me down, Mr. Gunn gave me hope when he agreed to represent me. It was a long process but Mr. Gunn and Brandi kept me apprised of my case. Down to earth, fair, fought for me when I was being unfairly blamed. Highly recommend their services.
Demonstrating true integrity and compassion for the circumstances, Mr. Gunn did an excellent job handling a complex and lengthy case for our family. He and his office staff are extremely professional, knowledgeable, diligent, and dedicated to obtaining optimum results, which he most certainly did for us. Definitely five plus stars! Thank you!
Excellent negotiator...had to turn to my own uninsured motor vehicle coverage when I was injured by an uninsured, impaired driver...my own insurance company ignored me...Corban did a good job...I did not get a lot because of the $25K limit on my coverage, and I had to repay Medicare...but what I got was better than nothing.
Mr Gunn is the best. My wife was hit by a Truck in August 2017 and we hired Mr Gunn to represent us. We were more then satisfied with the settlement Mr Gunn got us and the deep concern he had for my wife and me. I would recommend Mr Gunn to anyone that needs a great lawyer to represent them.
Mr. W. C. Gunn was the most helpful attorney and provided the best information to me in order to understand the knowledge about each step i should take. Unfortunately, does not represent the type of legal services i am needing, however, this very intelligent attorney went above and beyond to inform me of each step to take including a next day trial without any legal representing me yet and gave me step by step to inform judge. Then Mr Gunn, took more time out of his own day to locate and send me his personal reference in the correct attorney that would do me the best! To top it off, wow how genuine, he even followed up with me. Now that a true genuine and absolute amazing lawyer and friend who my case has nothing to benifit him. You honestly dont see that very much!!! Thank you, Mr Gunn!!
I asked Mr. Gunn to represent me in an aviation case. Though the case meandered along for quite a while due to the other party's actions - or lack of actions, Mr. Gunn represented my interests well, updated me of progress along the way, and was professional during all aspects of the case. I would hire Mr. Gunn again if the need were to arise.
