According to national databases, these incidents injure around 17,000 people every year. These accidents often happen to employees working on the equipment, but bystanders and consumers make up a large percentage of accident victims. Elevator\/escalator accidents can be catastrophic, causing injuries such as broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, and spinal cord injuries. One party that could hold fault for the incident is the property owner. Contact a Las Vegas elevator and escalator injury attorney to determine who is at fault for your accident.<\/p>\n<p>When you set foot (lawfully) on someone else\u2019s property, you can expect a certain level of care. Nevada\u2019s premises liability laws state that all property owners have a responsibility to ensure a reasonably safe environment for invited guests and visitors. Part of this responsibility takes the form of making sure elevators and escalators are safe and fit for operation at all times. This may involve regular equipment inspections, maintenance calls, and repairs. Failure to uphold this duty, resulting in an accident and injuries to guests, is negligence.<\/p>\n<p>Holding a property owner responsible for an elevator or escalator accident takes proving that the person was negligent and that this negligence caused the incident. Other parties that may be liable for your incident include the manufacturer of the equipment if the elevator\/escalator malfunctioned because of an equipment defect. The team in charge of maintaining the equipment might also share fault. An investigation by Panish | Shea | Ravipudi LLP can help you assign legal responsibility for your recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.panish.law\/nevada\/las-vegas-premises-liability-attorney\/\">Las Vegas premises liability incident<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>What to Do After an Elevator\/Escalator Accident<\/h2>\n<p>If an elevator or escalator malfunctions or otherwise causes injuries or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.panish.law\/nevada\/las-vegas-wrongful-death-attorney\/\">wrongful death in Las Vegas<\/a>, victims have the right to pursue compensation in the civil courts.
