Possible Incidents at Strip Clubs

There are many incidents that can occur on the premises of strip clubs and gentlemen’s clubs. The different types of incidents are discussed below:

• Broken dance pole / strip pole / runway accidents – Defective or improperly maintained dance poles and runways can all contribute to serious injuries for strippers during stage shows and performances.
• Broken chairs during private shows – patrons and strippers are susceptible to injuries from broken chairs during private dance shows in the champagne room and other VIP areas. Defective or improperly maintained chairs, as well as tables, can easily split or break. This can cause serious injury to the person in the chair, as well as anyone standing or sitting nearby.
• Slip and fall accidents – fall-related accidents are extremely common at strip clubs due to a number of hazards, including drinks spilled on the floor, recently waxed floors, water leaks, lack of warning signs, etc. Trip and fall accidents are also common at these places due to poor lighting, which can make it difficult for guests to spots hazards in their way.
• Assault and battery claims – patrons at a strip club can be beaten up security guards, by a stripper or employees at the strip club, or another customer / patron. These incidents can lead to severe, lifelong injuries, and even death.
• Acts of sexual assault at strip clubs – rowdy behavior is not unusual at strip clubs, but everyone on the premises has the right to be protected from acts of sexual abuse. This includes any type of sexual conduct that is non-consensual, ranging from rape to unwanted kissing and groping.

Whether these incidents occur within the walls of the establishment or out in a parking lot, the property owner could be held accountable. Depending on the type of incident, the resulting injuries could vary.

Our Recent Verdicts and Settlements

What are My Rights after an Injury at a Strip Club or Gentlemen’s Club?

Based on the details surrounding the incident and the harm that you or a loved one suffered, you could have the right to file a lawsuit. Your right to sue is based on the concept of premise liability. What is premise liability? Under the concept of premise liability, all property owners have a duty of care towards essentially anyone that is rightfully on their premises, including patrons/guests and employees alike. Because of this, property owners have to routinely inspect their premises to be able to identify and address any hazards that could lead to incidents. When property owners fail to identify and address hazards, then they can directly contribute to incidents. This means that property owners could be liable for all resulting harm.

Can I Sue after an Accident at a Strip Club?

Yes – whether you or a loved one suffered harm at a strip club or gentlemen’s club, you could have the right to file a lawsuit against the property owner. Whether the incident occurred in Las Vegas while you were visiting or in your hometown, whether its Los Angeles or any other city, you could certainly have the right to file a lawsuit. Of course, if you file a lawsuit, you could also be entitled to recovering compensation given that the lawsuit is successful.

What Compensation Can I Recover for my Strip Club Accident Lawsuit?

Victims of personal injury accidents, like slip and falls, trip and falls, assault and battery, etc., can generally recover compensation for some of the following:

• Medical costs
• Lost earnings
• Pain and suffering
• Funeral and burial costs
• Loss of consortium
• Punitive damages
• Legal fees

For more information about the type and amount of compensation that you could be eligible to receive if your lawsuit is successful, do not hesitate to contact the experts here at our firm immediately. Our lawyers are more than ready to provide you with the guidance that you need to begin or continue your injury claim and recover the highest settlement available for your claim.

What If I was an Employee of the Strip Club?

Even if you were an employee when your injury happened, you could be entitled to compensation. The first step would be to file for workers compensation benefits. These benefits could cover medical bills, disability pay, etc. If your workers comp claim is wrongfully denied or your boss doesn’t carry workers comp insurance coverage, then your only other option would be to file a lawsuit to ensure that you are fairly compensated for the harm that you suffered in your work accident.

What is the Average Value of Strip Club Accident Claims?

Unfortunately, trying to determine average case values for accident claims can be misleading. This is because the accidents that can occur on the premises of strip clubs and gentlemen’s clubs can be very different and result in varying injuries. However, if we had to make an educated guess based on our many years of experience with personal injury cases, we would say that these cases are worth anywhere from $50,000 to several million dollars and above.

Ultimately, the average value of a claim will be based on the different factors surrounding the claim, including the types of incident and claim being filed, the types of injuries suffered, the severity of the injuries, the permanency of the injuries, etc. In general, the more severe the incident and resulting harm, the higher the value of the claim. For more information about the possible value of your claim, do not hesitate to contact the experts here at our law firm immediately. Our lawyers are more than ready to handle your lawsuit and help you recover the highest settlement available for your claim.

Unfortunately, some claims can take over 2 years to settle.
