Top-Rated Nevada Car Accident Lawyers

Virtually any part of the body can be injured in a serious car crash. However, some injuries are more common than others. Here are some of the injuries our clients have suffered due to a car accident:

• Traumatic brain injury: Any injury that fractures or penetrates the skull, or causes the brain to hit the skull is considered a traumatic brain injury. Car accidents are the cause of more than half of all reported TBIs.
• Spinal cord injury: Spinal cord injuries may cause a loss of sensation and function below the area where the damage occurred, or can even result in death. Spinal cord injuries include damage to the spinal column, spinal cord, vertebrae, ligaments, or discs.
• Internal injuries caused by the force of the accident may manifest as internal bleeding, organ damage, or broken ribs.
• Broken bones: Broken bones caused by sudden impact or twisting are one of the most common injuries suffered by car accident victims. Broken arms and legs are frequently experienced in car accidents.
• Whiplash: Whiplash is a soft tissue neck injury that is caused by the forceful back and forth motion often experienced in rear-end collisions. While most people find that their whiplash symptoms go away within a few weeks, the pain can linger for months or even years for some.

Yes. You are required by law to file a police report if you’ve been involved in an accident that resulted in injuries, property damage, or death.

If the other driver leaves the scene of the accident, it’s important to try and get as much information about them as possible, such as their license plate number. You should also call the police and file a hit and run report.

No. You should never give a statement to the other driver’s insurance company without speaking to an attorney first. Additionally, you should never sign any documents from the insurance company without having an attorney review them first.

If you file a lawsuit after a car accident, you may be able to recover a number of different types of compensation, such as medical expenses, property damage, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.

The first thing you should do is seek medical assistance if you’ve been injured. Once you’ve done that, you can contact a personal injury lawyer to discuss your legal options.

Yes. Our attorneys can help investigate the accident and collect evidence to determine who is liable for your injuries. We can then use this information to negotiate a settlement with the responsible party’s insurance company.

Just like there are things you should do after your accident, there are also things you shouldn’t do.

• Don’t give a recorded statement. Aside from your statement to the police, do not give a recorded statement to your insurance company or the other driver’s insurance company. You may alert your insurance company that you were involved in an accident but do not give them a statement. This is important because insurance companies are looking for ways to not pay out your claim. If you say something innocent like you looked down for just a second, the insurance company could use that to deny your claim. This is why it’s so important to speak with a trusted car accident lawyer before you give a statement to the insurance company.
• Don’t delay in filing a claim. In Nevada, you only have a certain amount of time after your car accident to file a car accident claim. If you wait too long, you could risk having to pay out of pocket for all of your medical expenses. We don’t want to see you in this situation since you didn’t cause the accident and shouldn’t bear any responsibility for paying your medical bills.
How Long Will It Take To Resolve My Case?

This question also depends on many factors. The more complex your car accident claim is, the longer it will take. No two car accidents are the same so while our goal is to settle your case quickly, we will only settle if it’s right for you.

Sometimes insurance companies don’t want to offer fair settlements. When that happens, we are fully prepared to take your case all the way to trial to make sure you get the compensation you deserve.
