Injured at Caesars Palace

Since it was never my intention to sue Caesars, I immediately had my attorney email the rep to say they are no longer representing me and if they have something to say they should discuss it with me directly.

I also replied to the Caesars rep saying I am no longer being represented by an attorney and it's just between Caesars and me.

This all happened Thursday, August 25th around mid-day.

Let's see what happens now.


A noble response in today's litigious society. Seems everyone is so so quick to sue anybody for the slightest scratch.
I think it would be be decent of your host (with instructions from above) to give you a new jacket and comps to buy some new shoes and a little extra. They wouldn't be admitting any type of guilt (I was the one who said giving you anything monetary, pay any bills could be construed as admission), it would only be treating a seven star player to some wel deserved treats in the gift shop.

About a week ago two folks at Caesars emailed me (I won't reveal their names) to tell me that their risk management people "escalated" this unnecessarily and I am hoping everyone got the message. The problem did grow with the secondary infection but this still isn't a federal lawsuit or a case for the Supreme Court. I hope common sense will follow.
Here's an update: my attorney sent Caesars an email saying he no longer represents me and they can talk to me directly. The director of Risk Management has been exchanging emails with me, and yesterday afternoon I received an email from Gary Selesner the president of Caesars Palace who said he was unaware of the incident until I emailed him directly yesterday afternoon.

Edited to add:

I updated the article on my website to include information about federal regulations about door closing speeds.

A short while ago I had a phone call with a Caesars exec and I resolved my dispute with them. We had a very warm, friendly and interesting discussion about doors and safety. I am sure that good things will happen because of it.
Glad to hear it was resolved to your satisfaction.

I am glad to hear that you resolved your dispute. I will not ask what, if anything they offered to you. Did they ever say "I am sorry" ? You seemed to want that from the get go and I see no mention of an actual apology.
Yes. They said they were sorry for the way I was treated. And that was part of the resolution.
