Nevada Personal Injury Basics
Most injury claims in Nevada have a two-year statute of limitations (NRS 11.190(4)(e)). Miss it and your case is gone. Nevada also uses “comparative negligence.” If you’re less than 50% at fault, you can still recover—your award just gets reduced by your share of blame. Damages can include medical costs (past and future), lost wages, loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering, and, in rare cases, punitive damages.
Types of Personal Injury Cases in Nevada
We handle virtually every civil injury claim recognized in the state, including:
- Motor vehicle crashes: car, truck, motorcycle, rideshare (Uber/Lyft), pedestrian, bicycle
- Premises liability: slip and fall, negligent security, unsafe property, elevator/escalator injuries
- Product liability: defective products, dangerous drugs, faulty medical devices
- Medical malpractice and nursing home neglect/abuse
- Dog bites and animal attacks
- Construction and workplace accidents (third-party claims)
- Casino, hotel, and resort injuries (common in Las Vegas properties)
- Burn, brain, and spinal cord injuries
- Wrongful death claims for families who lost a loved one
If it hurt you and someone else’s negligence caused it, there’s likely a path to compensation.
What’s at Stake If You Wait
Evidence fades. Video is overwritten. Witnesses forget. Insurance adjusters call first to lock you into low numbers. Acting quickly allows us to preserve evidence, control the narrative, and prevent early mistakes from compromising your case.
What to Do After an Injury
- Get medical care right away. Gaps in treatment can harm claims and compromise your health.
- Save everything: photos, bills, prescriptions, witness info, damaged items.
- Don’t give recorded statements to insurers before you talk to counsel.
- Stay off social media. Posts get twisted against you.
- Follow your doctor’s orders. Missed appointments become “evidence” you weren’t hurt.

FAQs About Personal Injury in Nevada
Most cases: two years from the injury date. Some claims (against government entities or in medical malpractice) have special rules.
In the state of Nevada, you can still recover if you’re under 50% responsible. Your compensation is reduced by the percentage of fault attributed to you.
It depends on the nature of the injuries, the type of treatment, future care needs, lost income, and how clearly we can prove negligence. We evaluate all of it.
Most settle, but only when the other side knows you’re ready to try it. We prepare for trial from the very beginning.
Personal injury work is contingency-based, meaning you pay nothing unless we win your case.
You can, but it’s a risky move. Adjusters aim to minimize payouts. Let an attorney handle statements and negotiations.
Yes. Nevada premises cases are common in resorts. We grab incident reports, video, and maintenance records before they vanish.
Wrongful death and survival actions let families seek damages. Timelines and proof are critical.
