Local Las Vegas Personal Injury Attorneys
Las Vegas is attractive for weekend getaways, vacations, business conferences, and independent leisure. It is understandable that many of the people who are injured in Las Vegas are from out-of-state. Securing compensation for injuries suffered while in Nevada can be challenging. The experienced personal injury and wrongful death lawyers of the Christiansen Law Offices have the experience, compassion, and trial skills to provide exceptional legal representation to Las Vegas residents as well as out-of-state tourists.
Local to Las Vegas, we have community resources and local experts and investigators to utilize in preparing personal injury and wrongful death cases. Our experience handling Las Vegas personal injury cases familiarizes our team with the many accidents and incidents unique to our city. While we offer extensive experience handling virtually any personal injury or wrongful death case, our representation of Las Vegas tourists frequently involves:
Motor Vehicles
- Taxicab and limousine accidents: Las Vegas has a thriving taxi cab and limousine industry. When passengers are injured in a taxicab or limousine accident, there are unique considerations that we are familiar with in pursuing compensation for our clients.
- Pedestrian accidents: Las Vegas is known for its pedestrian traffic. Unfortunately, local and visiting drivers are not as cautious as they should be, resulting in pedestrians getting hit by cars, taxicabs, and other motor vehicles.
- Boating accidents : Memorial day and other holiday extended weekends bring thousands of people to Lake Mead. We represent clients in personal injury and wrongful death cases arising from boating accidents, jet ski accidents, and other watercraft accidents.
- Helicopter / airplane crashes: Chartered helicopter or airplane tours make repeated rounds over the Strip, to the Grand Canyon, to the Hoover Dam, and to other local attractions. Unfortunately, pilot error and defective parts have caused many of these tours to end abruptly in a serious injury or fatal crash.
- Other motor vehicle accidents: We also provide personal injury representation for clients injured in car accidents, truck accidents, commercial vehicle collisions, motorcycle crashes, and other motor vehicle accidents.

Premises Liability
- Slip and fall accidents: We recover compensation on behalf of tourists who suffer neck, back and other injuries in slip and fall or trip and fall accidents on Las Vegas properties, such as hotels, casinos, restaurants, sidewalks, and other areas.
- Security-related accidents: We represent accident victims who have been assaulted or raped as a result of negligent security at a hotel, casino, or nightclub. In addition, we pursue excessive force and brutality claims involving hotel or casino accidents where victims were wrongfully beaten up by security.
- Commercial construction: With the quick turnaround in hotels, casinos, and other attractions, new construction and renovations are a known characteristic of the Strip. We represent people who are injured or have lost a loved one in relation to a Las Vegas construction project, whether it involves a trip and fall on debris or a wrongful death in connection to demolition.
- Other premises liability: We represent clients who have lost a loved one in a hotel accident, such as drowning or other pool accidents (e.g. slip and fall in the pool area). Additionally, we seek compensation for clients suffering from burn injuries related to a hotel fire and other serious injuries.
