From Your First Call To Your Last Check
Most people who call us have never hired a lawyer before, and they are nervous about what it even means. So here is the honest version, start to finish, no jargon.
The first call is free and confidential. You tell Erik what happened, he asks a few questions, and you get a straight answer on whether you have a case worth bringing. There is no charge for that and no pressure either way. If we take it, you sign a simple agreement that says we only get paid if you do, and we walk you through the costs before anything starts.
From there we do the heavy lifting. We send preservation letters so footage and records do not vanish, pull the police or incident report, line up your medical care, and deal with every adjuster so your phone stops ringing. While you treat, we build the file: bills, wage loss, photos, witness statements, the doctor's findings. Once you have healed as much as you are going to, we put a full demand in front of the insurer.
Most cases settle from there. If the offer stays too low, we are ready to file in the appropriate Clark County court and keep pushing. Either way, you work with Erik the whole time, not a rotating call center. You can read more about how he handles cases on the about Erik page.
The Injuries That Bring Las Vegas To Our Door
Las Vegas runs on tourism and hospitality, and that mix shapes the cases we see. Crowded sidewalks near the resort corridor, busy garages, late nights, and millions of visitors who do not know the roads. Here is where most of it lands.
Car And Truck Crashes
Wrecks on the Strip, the 215 Beltway, and the surface streets that feed them. The most common reason people call us.
Slip, Trip, And Falls
A wet casino floor, a broken stair in an apartment complex, a dark parking garage. Property owners owe you a reasonably safe space.
Pedestrian And Bike Injuries
People hit while crossing on foot, on a bike, or on a scooter, often near the resort corridor where foot traffic is heaviest.
On The Job Injuries
Hospitality, warehouse, and construction work carries real risk. Workers comp and any third party claim can run side by side.
"If you are looking for a good attorney, this is the guy to go. Him and his team provide a very easy and smooth process and guides you along the way. Communication is also instantaneous. Thanks again Erik."
We Know The Streets, Not Just The Strip
Tourists picture the Strip, but most of our clients get hurt where people actually live: Summerlin, Spring Valley, the northwest, the east side off Boulder Highway, and the older downtown grid. A crash at a Spaghetti Bowl on ramp is a different animal than a fall in a Summerlin shopping center, and both are different from a pileup out on the 215.
That local knowledge matters. We know which intersections flood with red light wrecks, which apartment complexes ignore broken stairwells, and how the regional insurers handle valley claims. We know the run from a crash on the I-15 or US-95 to the trauma bay at UMC or Sunrise, and we know the courthouse on the other end. When a Las Vegas or Henderson case has to be filed, it goes to the Eighth Judicial District Court of Clark County downtown, and we build every file to stand up there from day one.

More Than The Hospital Bill
A real injury claim is bigger than the emergency room invoice, and the insurer counts on you not knowing that. Nevada is a fault state, so the person who caused the harm, really their insurance company, is the one who pays for it.
That includes your medical care, the imaging and surgery and therapy you have already had plus the future care a doctor says you will still need. It includes the paychecks you missed and any drop in earning power if you cannot go back to the same work. And it includes the part insurers fight hardest: the pain, the lost sleep, and the parts of your life you cannot do the way you used to. If you lost a loved one, a wrongful death claim reaches the funeral costs and the loss to the family.
For the most serious injuries, a traumatic brain injury, a spinal cord injury, or any catastrophic injury, the future care number can dwarf everything else, and getting it right takes real work from people who do this every day.
Partial Blame Does Not Sink Your Case
Nevada runs on modified comparative negligence under NRS 41.141. Plain version: you can be partly at fault and still recover, as long as your share stays at 50 percent or less. Say a case is worth $100,000 and a jury puts 30 percent of the blame on you. You still recover, just trimmed to $70,000. Go past the halfway line and you get nothing, which is exactly why the other side works so hard to pin extra fault on you.
That is the whole insurer playbook. The first offer is built to close your file cheap, before you know the full extent of your injuries. They will say the impact was minor, that you waited too long to treat, that you had a bad back already, that you stepped where you should not have. Every one of those lines has an answer, and a record that backs it up. Our job is to have that record ready before they ask. If the at fault driver had no coverage, your own uninsured motorist coverage can step in, and that is a fight worth having someone on your side for.
You Get The Attorney, Not A Hotline
Plenty of the big billboard firms hand you to a case manager you never met and the lawyer whose face is on the sign never touches your file. That is not how this works. Erik has been a licensed Nevada attorney since 2006, and he handles your case himself, from the first call to the final check.

Nothing up front. Our fee comes out of the recovery, and we go over case costs with you before anything starts.
