Who Can Be Held Responsible for a Building Collapse?

Damages Available to Victims of Building Collapse Accidents in Las Vegas
If you’re a victim of a building collapse accident in Las Vegas, you can seek various damages.
Let’s begin with medical expenses. These cover immediate and long-term care for injuries sustained in the collapse.
Lost wages and loss of earning capacity, on the other hand, compensate for the financial impact of not being able to work due to the injuries sustained in the accident.
Pain and suffering damages acknowledge the emotional and physical distress suffered by victims. In tragic cases, families of those who died may pursue wrongful death claims, covering funeral and burial expenses and loss of companionship.
Property damage claims can also be made for personal belongings, or businesses lost in the collapse.
