697 PERSONAL INJURY CASES
Owning and operating golf courses, hotels, condos and casinos meant Trump and his businesses faced hundreds of personal injury claims. Many end in settlements or dismissals, where the final resolution, including whether Trump paid the plaintiff, is unclear. The cases cover dozens of slips, trips and falls and others where casino patrons were injured on the properties in Atlantic City. In a few cases, Trump and his companies were plaintiffs in such cases, most notably involving executives killed in a helicopter crash.

1,863 CASINO CASES
Close to half the court cases involving Trump and his businesses over the last three decades involved his casinos. About 1,600 cases involve suits against gamblers who had credit at Trump-connected casinos and failed to pay their debts. Trump filed suits against contractors that provided entertainment and faced several from employees claiming they were wrongly fired.

208 CONTRACT DISPUTE CASES
In addition to the prominent cases tied to Trump University, Trump faced several class action cases over contract disputes tied to his real estate developments. His team argues in court that he's not liable for the deals that fail because he's simply lent his name. Trump himself walked lawyers through the difference between a brander and a developer in a 2013 deposition in one of the Fort Lauderdale condo cases. “Well, the word ‘developing,’ it doesn't mean that we're the developers,” Trump said, arguing he’s not accountable when a project he lends just his name to goes under.

130 EMPLOYMENT CASES
An employer of thousands, the Trump Organization and companies under its umbrella have faced more than 100 disputes over employment. In May, Trump Miami Resort Management LLC settled with 48 servers at his Miami golf resort over failing to pay overtime for a special event. The settlements averaged about $800 for each worker and as high as $3,000 for one, according to court records. Some workers put in 20-hour days over the 10-day Passover event at Trump National Doral Miami, the lawsuit contends.
