Were You a Victim of the Monte Carlo Fire in Las Vegas?

The Monte Carlo Hotel fire on January 25th, 2008 was a chilling event for Las Vegas and the hotel industry in general. However, questions of safety and whether every fire precaution was met, is an open case. Hotels are required by State Law to be equipped with fire detection devices, as well as clearly marked exit plans in case of an emergency or fire; unfortunately, sometimes hotels do not take the necessary steps to have these measures in place.

Burn lesions or injuries caused from fires are often time debilitating and difficult to overcome. The Law Offices of Benson & Bingham have experience handling fire accident and injury cases, and a skilled team of medical doctors to fully determine the extent of pain and injury caused from a proprietor's disregard for fire safety.

The fire at Monte Carlo was not the first, and certainly will not be the last fire to affect hotels in Las Vegas and the Downtown Strip. Understanding your rights as a victim of a fire accident is the first step in understaning your legal recourse. Contact Benson and Bingham if you have been a victim of a hotel fire.
