Taylor Wily’s Estate Sues Las Vegas Transport Company Over Alleged Wheelchair-Lift Failure Linked to His Death

The complaint ties a 2023 loading-ramp malfunction to the actor’s 2024 death, setting up a legal battle over causation.

Overview

  • The wrongful-death complaint was filed on Sept. 26, 2025, in Clark County District Court and names GMTCare, LLC and unidentified employees.
  • The suit alleges that on Oct. 3, 2023, a wheelchair lift failed while Wily was being loaded for non-medical transport near 3012 S. Durango Drive in Las Vegas.
  • Court filings say he fell from the platform, struck the back of his head on the pavement, and died on June 20, 2024, in Hurricane, Utah, at age 56.
  • The estate seeks a jury trial and damages exceeding $50,000 for his heirs, with representation by the Richard Harris Law Firm.
  • GMTCare has not publicly responded to inquiries, and a prior statement by Wily’s manager to the Los Angeles Times described his death as natural causes.
