Las Vegas resorts move enormous crowds vertically and horizontally all day—on escalators between casino levels, on the pedestrian bridges that span the Strip, and on moving walkways that carry people in and out of properties. Add in elements like luggage, crowds, fatigue, and distraction, and a machine that is supposed to make getting around…
Almost every Las Vegas visitor rides in an Uber or Lyft, from the airport to the hotel, over to a golf course or convention center, another resort for dinner or a show, and back again at the end of the night. So it is no surprise that rideshare crashes injure a lot of visitors….
The Las Vegas pool scene is its own attraction—dayclubs with DJs and crowds, resort pools built for lounging and cabana service, spas, and water features running all day. It is also a genuinely hazardous environment: wet decks, dense crowds, alcohol, glass, sun, and pool chemistry, all in one place. When someone is seriously hurt…

If you have just fallen at a Las Vegas hotel, casino, or store, you may have one chance to capture the evidence that will decide your case—and a very short window to do it. The condition that injured you is often cleaned up or repaired within hours. Once it is gone, it is gone,…

With school out and the country in the middle of summer break, a vacation to Las Vegas can be a fun and exciting experience.
