Michael Lowry (Partner-Las Vegas) won summary judgment in the Eighth Judicial District Court in Las Vegas for a fitness club client. The plaintiff, a club member, sued the client, alleging that he sustained injuries after slipping and falling while using the club’s facilities. Michael determined that the plaintiff’s membership agreement contained an assumption of risk regarding the use of the facility and a waiver of claims, prompting him to move for summary judgment at the outset of the case. The court concurred, granting Michael’s summary judgment motion and saving Wilson Elser’s client thousands of dollars in legal fees.
