Why Should I Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?
It’s generally recommended to hire a lawyer if you’ve sustained an injury at the hands of another.
With legal representation, you’re more likely to walk away with a higher settlement.
Reach out to our firm to learn more. Our legal team offers free consultations at our office to help you determine whether you have a claim.
You have someone to level the playing field. You will likely be dealing with an insurance company with one goal: minimizing your payout. Experienced attorneys know how to negotiate and prevent their clients from being taken advantage of.
You might be blamed for your injuries. By shifting fault to you, an insurer can reduce its financial liability. Your lawyer will know how to counter these and other tactics.
Your claim may require expert guidance. For example, you might need a medical specialist to explain your injuries or a financial advisor to value future lost wages. Your lawyer will know who to contact.
You need to focus on your recovery. You shouldn’t be worrying about a contested legal battle while healing. An lawyer will handle the whole process using their skills and resources.

Personal Injury FAQs
Do I Have A Personal Injury Claim?
Do I Have A Personal Injury Claim?
You might have an injury claim if another party harmed you through their negligence or wrongdoing.
For example, the following could lead to a valid legal cause of action:
- A speeding motorist crashed into you, causing a motorcycle accident
- You suffered a dog bite injury while visiting the local park
- Your loved one was physically assaulted in an assisted living facility
- You sustained a brain injury in a bicycle or pedestrian accident
- A negligent healthcare provider failed to diagnose your condition (medical malpractice)
- You suffered severe burns in a workplace accident
These are just some scenarios that may give rise to a personal injury claim. It’s best to consult an attorney to evaluate the validity of your case.
How Much Is My Personal Case Worth?
How Much Is My Personal Case Worth?
The value of your personal injury claim is contingent on many factors, as no two cases are identical. Generally, the more severe your harm, the more extensive your damages will be.
However, when our team is assessing your case, we will evaluate the following:
- The severity of your injuries and their impact on your overall well-being
- Whether you are permanently disabled or impaired (and to what extent)
- The value of your medical costs and other financial damages
- The level of psychological trauma and physical pain you’ve endured
- Whether you share any fault for the accident or injuries
- The parties involved
- The insurance coverage and limits (if any)
You need to be aware of the value of your claim before entering negotiations. After all, you can’t know if an offer is fair if you don’t understand what your damages are worth. Our Nevada personal injury attorneys will calculate the extent of your losses and fight for every penny.

How Much Does It Cost To Hire A Personal Injury Lawyer?
Most personal injury attorneys in Las Vegas take cases on a contingency fee basis. You won’t owe any money upfront for legal services. Additionally, the fee is contingent upon the success of your claim – meaning you only pay if you secure compensation.
Contingency fees are paid as a percentage of your final award. They’re typically around 33-40%, but may vary.
We will answer your questions and explain this payment arrangement in further detail during your free initial review.
How Long Do I Have To File A Lawsuit After An Accident In Nevada?
How Long Do I Have To File A Lawsuit After An Accident In Nevada?
Under Nevada law, you typically have two years from the accident date to file a personal injury lawsuit. In the event of a fatal incident, you have two years from the victim’s date of death to bring suit.
However, some types of claims are subject to different statutes of limitations under Nevada injury law. And, if you miss the applicable deadline, you lose your right to pursue an action through the court. It is recommended that you consult a Las Vegas attorney as soon as possible to protect yourself.
