11/11/2021 Update: Since the time of publishing this post, one more person has died of their injuries. The total number of deaths from the Astroworld Music Festival Mass Casualty Event is now 9.
Chad Pinkerton of The Pinkerton Law Firm, PLLC, in Houston, Texas, is currently representing 10 victims of the Astroworld mass casualty event. If you or a loved one was in attendance at the Astroworld Music Festival mass casualty event, you should immediately seek legal counsel as you may be entitled to significant compensation.
“Sadly, despite many warnings and previous injuries and lawsuits, Travis Scott and his people intentionally ignored the risks. The money was just too good for them. This was a preventable event, but basic safety guidelines just didn’t fit within Mr. Scott’s plans. This behavior is simply sickening,” said Mr. Pinkerton.
Mr. Pinkerton has extensive experience representing victims of music festivals and concerts; one of his most notable cases was the MGM Resorts International lawsuit after the Mandalay Bay shooting which claimed the lives of 60 music festival attendees and injured hundreds more. The MGM lawsuit resulted in an $800,000,000 settlement for the victims and their families.
In the MGM Resorts International lawsuit, Mr. Pinkerton represented the families of 4 of the people killed during the massacre, 59 victims of the shooting, as well as 70 people who were trampled during the event who required surgeries for their injuries.
