Las Vegas CVS Slip & Fall Accident Attorneys
Hurt in a fall at CVS?
A quick stop at CVS for a prescription or cold medicine shouldn’t end in the emergency room. Yet, the convenience CVS offers (compact aisles, 24-hour access, and high-traffic variety) creates a unique hazard profile that puts shoppers at risk.

What to do immediately after a fall at CVS
CVS corporate policy dictates how their employees respond to accidents. You need to take specific steps to counter their defense strategy immediately.
Proving CVS was negligent
To have a valid claim under Nevada premises liability law (Foster v. Costco Wholesale Corp., 128 Nev. 773 (2012), the Nevada case holding that a property owner owes visitors a duty of reasonable care), we must prove four specific elements. We don’t just say they were “careless”; we pinpoint the failure.
The “open and obvious” trap: how CVS blames you
The single most common defense CVS will use is that the hazard was “Open and Obvious,” meaning you should have seen it.
This is a calculated retail psychology trick.
CVS stores are engineered to distract you. Through a concept known as “Eye Level is Buy Level,” CVS designs shelves, end-caps, and “blade” signs to draw your eyes up toward products and away from the floor.

(702) 633-3333 Free consultation · Available 24/7 Or send us the details onlineCVS is my pharmacy. If I sue, will they ban me or cut off my meds?
This is a common fear, but it is unfounded. Pharmacists in Nevada are licensed professionals bound by state regulations. Under NAC 639.753, a pharmacist may decline to fill a prescription only for specific medical or legal reasons (such as fraud or imminent harm). Retaliation for a lawsuit is not a valid legal reason to deny medication. Furthermore, CVS is a massive corporation; banning a customer for a legitimate injury claim would be a public relations and legal nightmare for them.
How long do I have to file?
NRS 11.190 gives you two years to file a personal injury claim in Nevada. However, CVS security footage is often overwritten in 90 days or less. You must hire an attorney immediately to send a preservation letter to save that footage.
What if I was partially at fault?
Nevada uses comparative negligence (NRS 41.141). As long as your share of the fault is not greater than the fault of the parties you are suing, you can still recover damages. If a jury awards you $100,000 but finds you 20% at fault, you would receive $80,000. This is a hypothetical example for illustrative purposes only.
