Premises liability claims arise from injuries or death caused by hazardous or dangerous conditions on a property. If you are the victim of a casino injury, you may consider filing a premises liability lawsuit. The most common reason for filing a premises liability lawsuit is slip and fall accidents, but casinos present other opportunities for accidents and injuries to arise. These accidents can be food poisoning, broken slot machine chairs, criminal activity, contracting illnesses, or hazards from malfunctioning equipment.

In Nevada, foreseeability in premises liability claims can have an expansive interpretation. Generally, casinos must take reasonable precautions in food preparation and storage to prevent food poisoning. They should not serve alcohol in casinos, dining areas, or nightclubs to already severely intoxicated persons. Fixtures and furniture should be kept in good repair. Chairs at gaming tables, pubs, dining areas, showrooms, or bathrooms should be safe. Spills, or other tripping or falling hazards, should be cleared away promptly.

If the store was negligent, you can sue Home Depot for slip and fall injuries. When you go to a Home Depot store, a simple errand to buy some things can turn into a lasting, costly ordeal if you suffer an injury from some hazard while shopping. Whether it be liquids on a floor that an employee has not cleaned up, hazards left in the aisles, or poor lighting, you should not have to be in danger from such conditions while shopping. 

With Walmart stores varying in size from 98,000 to 261,000 square feet, there is a lot of space for things to go wrong and injuries to happen. While slip and fall accidents are the most common cause of injuries, there are several other causes as well.
