Another Planet Concert Injury Lawsuit Attorney

Another Planet is an independent concert promoter that’s based in San Francisco, California. The company promotes concerts at various well-known venues in the U.S., including the Greek Theatre and the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium.

Companies like Another Planet have many responsibilities in the planning and staging of a concert. Security procedures, emergency planning, and hiring of staff and vendors are just some of the duties they oversee at these events. As a result, Another Planet may be sued by victims who were injured at one of their concerts. A lawsuit can also be filed by family members who lost a loved to a concert-related accident. However, these legal actions can be difficult for the average person to navigate, so it’s best to work with an attorney that’s experienced in concert accident injuries.

Have you been injured, or lost a loved one to an injury at a concert that was promoted by Another Planet? In that case, please take some time to speak with one of our concert promoter accident attorneys. We can advise you of your legal options, including the right to compensation for your physical and mental injuries.

Can I Sue if I was Injured at a Another Planet Promoted Concert?

You may be able to sue Another Planet for a concert injury if your accident was caused by the company’s negligence. To show that Another Planet was negligent, you would need to prove that they caused a hazardous situation, or failed to resolve a situation that could lead to an injury. This can mean a lot of things when it comes to concerts and other live events. A lawyer can help determine if the concert promoter breached their duty of care, and help you take legal action in a claim for compensation.

Another Planet may not be the only party that’s responsible for your accident. Many entities, including security firms, venue owners, and private vendors, combine their efforts to put a concert together. For example, if a security firm failed to take proper screening measures, someone can enter the premises with a weapon. If an audience member is harmed with that weapon, the security company may be liable, along with the concert promoter. In some cases, as in the Astroworld incident, artists may be responsible if they encourage reckless actions among the audience members.

Accidents at a Concert Promoted by Another Planet

Concerts are crowded, highly charged events, so injuries are likely to happen no matter how many precautions are taken. The potential for accidents is even higher when audience members are impaired by alcohol and/or drugs. That’s precisely why concert promoters must take any and all reasonable measures to keep people safe. If Another Planet breaches their duty of care to those at one of their events, injuries can occur from one or more of the following accidents:

• Crushing and trampling 

Fans can be trampled or crushed from overcrowding, which is why concert venues have capacity limits. However, insufficient security measures can result in people sneaking in before and during the concert. This can easily lead to overcrowding and physical altercations, as well as crushing and trampling accidents.

• Mosh pit accidents  

Mosh pits are incredibly dangerous due to the aggressive dancing, which can cause people to hit or crash into others. Fights often break out from these incidents, which is something that security personnel should be watching out for. If they failed to deescalate a fight or remove dangerous individuals, many people in the audience can end up being injured or killed.

• Assault and battery  

Physical altercations are one of the most common causes of injuries at a concert. Another Planet and other concert promoters must take all reasonable measures to minimize fights and other injury causing events. For instance, everyone who is admitted into the venue must be screened for weapons and drugs.

• Slip and fall / Trip and Fall  

It’s no secret that floors at a concert are constantly slippery and sticky. From dropped food to spilled drinks, there is great potential for individuals to be harmed through a slip and fall or trip and fall accident. Staff members must be cleaning and inspecting the premises throughout the event in order to prevent fall-related injuries.

•  Sexual assault  

The rate of sexual assault is disturbingly high at concerts, especially at outdoor music festivals like Coachella. But even indoor events are prone to sexual violence due to conditions like dark lighting, alcohol, and loud music that can drown out cries for help.

• Alcohol poisoning  

On the one hand, concert attendees are responsible for their own alcohol consumption. However, it’s very easy to overdrink at these events, which is why staff and vendors must be careful not to overserve impaired individuals. If alcohol poisoning or another alcohol-related accident occurs, the concert promoter and other parties may be responsible for the victims’ injuries.

• Heat exhaustion  

Heat exhaustion, heat stroke, dehydration, and severe sunburn are very common at outdoor concerts throughout the spring and summer. Aside from the high temperatures and sun exposure, people are packed tightly together for hours at a time, and that alone can lead to heat exhaustion.

If you were injured at a Another Planet promoted concert, you must speak to a lawyer right away. Another Planet may be responsible for your accident, which would give you the right to sue them for compensation. Injuries, by the way, do not need to be physical. Many cases of sexual abuse do not involve physical injuries, but the victim’s emotional trauma can be severe. PTSD, depression, and other mental health disorders are compensable injuries, which you can discuss with a sexual assault lawsuit attorney at our office.

• Medical bills
• Pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
• Lost wages
• Lost earning capacity
• Property damage
• Legal fees
• Punitive damages

If you’ve lost a family member or loved one to a concert accident, you can pursue a claim for wrongful death compensation. Your compensable damages can include the following:
