Car Accident Lawyer in Henderson & Las Vegas, NV

Nevada roads — especially the I-15, I-215 beltway, and US-95 corridor — are among the busiest in the American Southwest. If you've been injured in an auto accident anywhere in Clark County, you have the right to pursue full compensation from the at-fault driver and their insurance company.

Insurance companies are not on your side. Their adjusters are trained to minimize payouts, and they may contact you quickly to offer a lowball settlement before you understand the full extent of your injuries. Do not accept any settlement offer without first consulting with our car accident attorneys.

What Compensation Can I Recover After a Car Accident?

Nevada is a fault-based (tort) state, meaning the at-fault driver is responsible for all damages caused by the accident. Under Nevada law, you may be entitled to compensation for:

Medical bills (past and future)
Lost wages and loss of earning capacity
Pain and suffering
Property damage / vehicle repair or replacement
Emotional distress
Loss of enjoyment of life
Permanent disfigurement or disability
Punitive damages (in cases of extreme negligence)

Nevada's Modified Comparative Negligence Law

Nevada follows a modified comparative negligence rule. If you are found to be partially at fault for the accident, your compensation is reduced proportionally. However, if you are found to be 51% or more at fault, you cannot recover damages at all.

Insurance companies frequently try to inflate your percentage of fault to reduce their payout. Our car accident attorneys investigate your accident thoroughly to counter these arguments.

Nevada Statute of Limitations

You have 2 years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury lawsuit in Nevada (NRS 11.190). Acting quickly is critical — missing this deadline means losing your right to compensation entirely.

What to Do After a Car Accident in Nevada

1

Seek Medical Attention

Go to the emergency room or urgent care immediately, even if you feel fine. Some injuries — like whiplash and concussions — have delayed symptoms. Medical records are critical evidence.

2

Call the Police

Always file a police report. The official report documents the accident, identifies the at-fault driver, and provides evidence your attorney can use.

3

Document the Scene

If able, photograph the vehicles, road conditions, traffic signals, and any visible injuries. Get names and contact information from witnesses.

4

Notify Your Insurance

Report the accident to your own insurer but do not give a recorded statement until you speak with an attorney. Insurance companies use your words against you.
