--- title: "Car Accident Lawyer in Las Vegas, NV" url: https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/civil-litigation/personal-injury/car-accident/ updated: 2026-08-03 --- # Car Accident Lawyer in Las Vegas, NV A wreck can flip your life in seconds with hospital bills, missed work, and an insurance rep pushing a low offer. Nevada law lets you recover what you’ve lost, but only if you move fast and protect your claim. **Contact Flangas Law Firm today to schedule a complimentary consultation and discuss your accident case.** ## Nevada Car Crash Basics Nevada gives most victims two years to file an injury claim (NRS 11.190(4)(e)). The state also uses comparative negligence, meaning if you’re less than 50% at fault, you can still recover, but your award drops by your percentage of blame (NRS 41.141). Typical damages include: medical bills (past and future), lost wages and earning capacity, property damage, pain and suffering, and sometimes punitive damages when conduct is outrageous (like drunk driving). ## Common Types of Car Accident Cases We Handle - Rear-end and chain-reaction crashes - Intersection and red-light violations - Hit-and-run and uninsured/underinsured motorist claims - Drunk or drug-impaired driving collisions - Rideshare (Uber/Lyft), taxi, limo, and tour-bus crashes - Motorcycle, bicycle, and pedestrian impacts - Commercial truck and delivery-vehicle accidents - Casino and resort shuttle collisions If a negligent driver (or company) caused it, there’s likely a path to compensation. ## What To Do After a Crash (and What Not To Do) **Do:** - Get medical care right away (even if you “feel fine” now). - Photograph vehicles, road conditions, injuries, and insurance cards. - Gather witness names and numbers. - Save bills, receipts, and repair estimates. **Don’t:** - Give a recorded statement to the other insurer without counsel. - Post on social media about the crash or your injuries. - Skip doctor visits or ignore treatment plans—gaps hurt your case. - Sign releases or quick checks before you know the full extent of your injuries. ## How We Build Your Claim We lock down police reports, black-box data, surveillance video, and 911 audio. We work with doctors, crash reconstructionists, and economists to prove both fault and value. Then we negotiate hard so you’re not stuck with bills you didn’t create. #### All Services - [Criminal Defense](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/) [Assault & Battery Defense Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/assault-and-battery-defense/) - [Criminal Record Sealing Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/record-sealing-and-expungement/) - [Domestic Violence Defense Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/domestic-violence-defense/) - [Drug Crimes Defense Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/drug-crimes-defense/) - [DUI Defense Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/dui-defense/) - [Federal Crimes Defense Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/federal-crimes-defense/) - [Juvenile Criminal Defense Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/juvenile-defense/) - [Kidnapping Defense Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/kidnapping-defense/) - [Parole & Probation Violation Defense](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/parole-and-probation-violations/) - [Robbery & Burglary Defense Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/robbery-and-burglary-defense/) - [Sex Crimes Defense Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/sex-crimes-defense/) - [Theft & Fraud Defense Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/theft-and-fraud-defense/) - [Violent Crimes Defense Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/violent-crimes-defense/) [Murder & Manslaughter Defense Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/violent-crimes-defense/murder-and-manslaughter-defense/) - [Weapons Charge Defense Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/weapons-charge-defense/) - [White-Collar Crime Defense Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/criminal-defense/white-collar-crime-defense/) - [Civil Litigation](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/civil-litigation/) [Business Law Attorneys](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/civil-litigation/business-litigation/) - [Personal Injury Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/civil-litigation/personal-injury/) [Car Accident Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/civil-litigation/personal-injury/car-accident/) - [Slip & Fall Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/civil-litigation/personal-injury/slip-and-fall/) - [Wrongful Death Lawyer](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/civil-litigation/personal-injury/wrongful-death/) - [Property Dispute Attorneys](https://www.flangaslawfirm.com/civil-litigation/property-disputes/) #### Need Help? Call Us 24/7 For Support #### Phone (702) 384‑1990 ## FAQs About Nevada Car Accident Claims Two years for injury, generally. Property-only claims can have different timelines. Special rules apply to government entities. You can still recover if you’re under 50% responsible. Your recovery is reduced by your fault share. Most car accident cases are contingency-based—you pay nothing unless we recover. Terms go in the fee agreement. Maybe. Most settle, but only when insurers know a trial is real. We prepare as if we’re going all the way. Usually yes—let it cover care now. We coordinate liens and subrogation later so you keep more of your settlement. We handle those too—incident reports and video vanish fast, so move quickly.
