What’s the time limit to file a claim in Nevada?
Under Nevada Revised Statutes § 11.190(4)(e), you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. If you miss this deadline, you could lose your right to recover compensation entirely.
Can I still get compensation if I was partly at fault?
Nevada uses a comparative negligence system. You can still recover damages as long as you’re not more than 50% at fault. However, your compensation will be reduced based on your percentage of fault. Working with an experienced car accident lawyer in Las Vegas can protect you from any attempts to blame you unfairly for the accident.
How much is my car accident case worth?
That depends on the severity of your injuries, how much work you’ve missed, your medical needs, and how your life has been affected. We evaluate every case individually to pursue the maximum compensation allowed by law.
Should I talk to the other driver’s insurance company?
No. You’re not legally required to give a recorded statement, and doing so can hurt your case. Let your lawyer handle all communication with insurance adjusters.
