WHERE ACCIDENTS HAPPEN
COMMON PREMISES LIABILITYLOCATIONS IN LAS VEGAS
Nevada property owners are legally responsible for maintaining safe conditions for all lawful visitors. These are the most common locations where serious slip and fall injuries occur.
Retail Stores & Supermarkets
Wet floors, spilled merchandise, uneven surfaces, and inadequate lighting are among the most common hazards in retail environments. Store owners have a duty to inspect, identify, and correct dangerous conditions within a reasonable time.
Casinos, Hotels & Resorts
Las Vegas casinos and hotels see millions of visitors annually. Slippery pool decks, uneven flooring, poor lighting in parking garages, and broken escalators create significant injury risks. These properties carry substantial liability insurance and must be held accountable.
Apartment Complexes & Residences
Landlords and property managers are responsible for maintaining safe common areas — stairwells, hallways, parking lots, and walkways. Broken handrails, unlit stairways, and icy sidewalks are frequent sources of serious injury.
Parking Lots & Garages
Potholes, cracked pavement, poor lighting, and inadequate drainage create dangerous conditions in parking areas. Property owners are responsible for maintaining safe surfaces and warning visitors of known hazards.
Restaurants & Bars
Spilled drinks, recently mopped floors without warning signs, and uneven outdoor patios are common in Las Vegas's dining and entertainment venues. Establishments must maintain safe conditions and act promptly when hazards arise.
Government Property
Slip and fall accidents on government-owned property — sidewalks, parks, public buildings — involve special rules and shorter notice deadlines. Nevada requires prompt notice to government entities. Contact an attorney immediately if your fall occurred on public property.
WHAT YOUR CASE REQUIRES
THE FOUR ELEMENTS OFA SLIP & FALL CLAIM
To win your slip and fall case under Nevada law, we must establish all four of these elements. Thomas Boley builds each case with the evidence needed to prove every element.
Duty of Care
The property owner or occupier owed you a legal duty of care. In Nevada, this duty extends to all lawful visitors — customers, tenants, guests, and members of the public invited onto the premises.
Breach of Duty
The owner breached that duty by creating a dangerous condition, failing to correct a known hazard, or failing to warn visitors of a known risk within a reasonable time. We gather surveillance footage, maintenance records, and incident reports to prove this.
Causation
The breach directly caused your fall and injuries. We work with medical experts and accident reconstruction specialists to establish the direct link between the hazardous condition and your specific injuries.
Damages
You suffered actual damages — medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and reduced quality of life. We document every category of loss to ensure you receive full and fair compensation under Nevada law.
HOW WE BUILD YOUR CASE
PROVEN STRATEGIES FORMAXIMUM COMPENSATION
Thomas Boley investigates every aspect of your case to build the strongest possible claim against the negligent property owner.
Proving the Owner Knew or Should Have Known
We obtain surveillance footage, maintenance logs, prior incident reports, and employee testimony to establish that the property owner knew — or should have known — about the dangerous condition and failed to act.
Documenting All Damages
We work with medical providers, vocational experts, and life care planners to document every category of loss: emergency care, surgery, physical therapy, lost income, future medical needs, and pain and suffering.
Countering Comparative Fault Arguments
Insurance companies routinely argue that the victim was partially at fault — looking at their phone, wearing improper footwear, or ignoring warning signs. We build a strong factual record to minimize your assigned fault percentage under NRS 41.141.
Acting Before Evidence Disappears
Surveillance footage is often overwritten within 24–72 hours. We send immediate evidence preservation letters to property owners and their insurers to prevent destruction of critical footage, maintenance records, and incident reports.
Identifying All Responsible Parties
Multiple parties may share liability — the property owner, a property management company, a cleaning contractor, or a product manufacturer. We investigate every responsible party to maximize your recovery.
Negotiating Maximum Compensation
Thomas Boley prepares every slip and fall case as if it will go to trial. That preparation — thorough investigation, expert witnesses, and documented damages — produces better settlement offers and stronger trial results.

NRS 41.141 — COMPARATIVE FAULT
PARTIALLYAT FAULT?
Nevada follows a modified comparative fault rule under NRS 41.141. Even if you were partially responsible for your fall, you can still recover damages as long as your fault is 50% or less. Your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault.
Insurance companies routinely argue that victims were partially at fault — looking at their phone, wearing improper footwear, or ignoring warning signs — to reduce or eliminate compensation. We counter these arguments with evidence.
Comparative Fault Example
If your assigned fault is 51% or more, you cannot recover under Nevada law. That is why it is critical to have an experienced attorney building a strong factual record from the very beginning of your case.

Nevada's general negligence statute establishes that property owners and occupiers owe a duty of reasonable care to visitors. Breach of that duty resulting in injury creates liability for all resulting damages, including medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
View full statute →Statute of Limitations
In Nevada, you have two years from the date of your slip and fall accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline permanently bars your claim. Contact an attorney immediately to preserve your rights and begin the investigation.

Nevada casinos, hotels, and resorts owe a heightened duty of care to guests on their premises. Given the volume of foot traffic and the commercial nature of these properties, courts apply rigorous standards for maintaining safe conditions and warning of known hazards.
