Las Vegas Car Accident Lawyer
Car accidents can cause physical injuries, financial losses, and a high level of stress for victims and their families. Our legal team represents people who have been injured due to the negligence of other drivers, helping them understand their rights and legal options.
We handle dealing with insurance companies, gather key evidence, and build a strong case to obtain compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Why Insurance Companies Push Back on Car Accident Claims
Insurance companies are businesses, and every dollar they pay you is a dollar they lose. After a crash, it's common for an adjuster to call quickly, ask for a recorded statement, and offer a settlement before you know the full extent of your injuries. Some injuries, like whiplash, back injuries, or concussions, don't show all their symptoms in the first days.
Nevada follows a modified comparative negligence rule. That means the insurance company may try to blame you for part of the accident to reduce what they pay. If you're found partly at fault, your compensation is reduced by that percentage, and if you're found more at fault than the other side, you can't recover at all. What you say, and when you say it, matters.
How We Build Your Case and What You Can Recover
We start by gathering the evidence that proves what happened: the police report, photos and video of the scene, witness statements, vehicle damage, and your medical records. When needed, we work with accident reconstruction and medical professionals to show how the crash happened and how it has affected your life.
With that foundation, we pursue compensation for:
Medical expenses, current and future
Lost wages and reduced ability to work
Pain, suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life
Damage to your vehicle
Car Accident FAQs
-
In most cases, you have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Evidence and witnesses are easier to find early, so it's best not to wait.
-
You're not required to give them a recorded statement. It's better to speak with an attorney first so your words aren't used to reduce your claim.
-
You may be able to recover through your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage. We review your policy to find every available source of compensation.
