The pedestrian accident claim process is complex. Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize payouts, and Nevada's comparative fault rules can reduce your recovery if the insurer successfully shifts blame onto you. You need attorneys who understand these tactics and know how to counter them.

When a vehicle strikes a pedestrian, the injuries are rarely minor. Broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, and internal trauma are common — and the medical bills pile up fast. Nevada's pedestrian accident statistics tell a stark story. In 2017 alone, 100 pedestrians were killed on Nevada roadways — a 25% increase from the previous year. Pedestrian fatalities accounted for nearly one-third of all traffic deaths statewide that year. Between 2013 and 2017, Nevada ranked among the top five states in the nation for pedestrian deaths.
In Reno, high-traffic corridors like Virginia Street, South McCarran Boulevard, and the University of Nevada Reno area see a disproportionate share of these incidents. If you were hurt at a crosswalk, intersection, or parking area in the Reno metro, you may be entitled to significant compensation — and you need a pedestrian accident attorney who knows how to fight for it.

- Calculating your full damages — medical costs, future care needs, lost wages, loss of earning capacity, and pain and suffering
- Negotiating with insurers — pushing back against lowball offers and bad-faith tactics

Frequently Asked Questions — Reno Pedestrian Accident Claims
What our clients say: Our attorneys are aggressive advocates who communicate clearly and fight hard when it matters most.
Call 911, seek medical attention right away, and document the scene if you are physically able. Do not give a recorded statement to any insurance company before consulting a pedestrian accident attorney.
Nevada's statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of the accident. Missing this deadline typically bars your right to recover compensation.
You may be eligible for medical expenses, future medical care, lost wages, loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering, and in some cases, punitive damages.
Nevada follows a modified comparative fault rule. You can still recover damages as long as you are found to be less than 51% at fault, though your recovery is reduced proportionally.
No. The firm works on a contingency fee basis — you pay no attorney fees unless and until we recover compensation on your behalf.
You may be able to file a claim under your own uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. Our attorneys can evaluate all available sources of recovery.
