If you were hurt at Treasure Island, taking the right steps early can help protect both your health and any future claim.
1. Get Medical Treatment Right Away
Your health should come first after any injury at TI. Prompt medical care can also help connect your injuries to the incident. This is especially important for head injuries, back injuries, and soft tissue damage, which may seem minor at first but become more serious over time.
2. Report the Incident to Hotel Staff or Security
Let Treasure Island staff or security know about the incident as soon as possible. Ask for an incident report to be created and request a copy if one is available. Be specific about where it happened, whether that was in the casino, at the pool, in a restaurant, in the parking garage, or in a hotel room or hallway.
3. Take Photos and Document the Scene
Try to gather as much information as you can before the condition changes. Take photos or videos of the hazard, the surrounding area, your injuries, and anything else that may help explain what happened. If anyone witnessed the incident, get their names and contact information.
4. Preserve Evidence and Keep Records
The details can matter later. Hold on to medical records, discharge papers, hotel reservation details, receipts, parking stubs, food and beverage receipts, and any messages or emails related to the incident. If this was a slip and fall, keep the clothing and shoes you were wearing.
