Drunk Driving Accidents in Nevada
Driving under the influence is a serious problem in Nevada, causing countless injuries and fatalities each year. If you or a loved one has been injured by a drunk driver, you have the right to hold them accountable. In some cases, the bar or restaurant that served the driver can also be sued. Often times, drunk drivers only get a few months in jail or probation, even when their reckless actions caused serious injury or death. Filing a personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit is often the only way to feel that justice has been served. Our attorneys will fight to get you the compensation you deserve and ensure that justice is served.
Distracted Driving Accidents in Nevada
Distracted driving is one of the leading causes of car accidents in Nevada. It includes anything that diverts the driver’s attention from the road, such as:
- Cell Phones: Using a cell phone while driving is dangerous and illegal in Nevada. Texting, emailing, or browsing on a phone can have devastating consequences.
- Dashboard Controls: Adjusting settings on your dashboard or a GPS system can take a driver’s eyes off the road, increasing the risk of an accident.
- Vehicle Occupants: Interacting with passengers, especially children, can be distracting. Drivers must insure that passengers are safely buckled and aware of the importance of keeping distractions to a minimum.
Protecting Your Rights After a Nevada Car Accident
Navigating the aftermath of a car accident can be challenging, especially when dealing with insurance companies. Here are four crucial steps you should take to protect your rights:
- Report the Crash to Your Insurance Company: Promptly notifying your insurer is usually required by your policy and ensures your rights are protected.
- Do Not Talk to Other Insurance or Trucking Companies: Avoid giving statements to the at-fault party’s insurance or trucking companies without consulting your attorney.
- Report the Incident to Local Authorities: Whether it’s the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police, Nevada Highway Patrol, or other local authorities, having an official accident report helps establish the facts of your case.
- Contact a Lawyer Before Signing Anything: Consult with an attorney before signing any documents or attending a medical exam set up by an insurance company.
How Much is My Nevada Car Accident Case Worth?
The value of your case depends on various factors, including the severity of your injuries, the impact on your daily life, and the degree of negligence involved. Our attorneys are skilled in assessing the worth of your case and will fight for the maximum compensation possible.
Should I Speak with an Insurance Adjuster?
No, you should not speak with the at-fault party’s insurance adjuster without legal representation. Insurance companies aim to minimize payouts, and any information you provide could be used against you. Let our experienced attorneys handle all communications with insurance companies to protect your interests.
Why Report an Accident to Local Authorities in Nevada?
Reporting an accident, even if it seems minor, is crucial. A police or highway patrol report provides an unbiased account of the accident, which can be valuable evidence if you need to pursue a claim or lawsuit.
Holding Negligent Drivers Accountable in Nevada
Nevada law allows accident victims to hold negligent drivers accountable for their actions. Our attorneys will thoroughly investigate your case, gather evidence, and build a strong argument to prove negligence. For example, Nevada traffic laws require drivers to exercise reasonable care and follow all applicable traffic regulations. Violations of these laws, such as speeding, running red lights, or texting while driving, are considered negligence and can be grounds for a lawsuit.
Our legal team is well-versed in Nevada traffic laws and uses this knowledge to build compelling cases for our clients.
