Frequently Asked Questions: Car Accidents in Reno, NV
If you have been involved in a collision, you likely have many concerns. Here are answers to some of the questions we hear most often.
In most cases, Nevada law gives you two years from the accident date to file a personal injury lawsuit. Claims against government entities may have shorter deadlines. Contact an attorney immediately to protect your right to compensation.
Your own uninsured or underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage may provide compensation. A car accident lawyer can identify all available recovery options.
Nevada's modified comparative negligence law allows you to recover damages as long as you are less than 51 percent at fault. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault: another reason to have an attorney assess liability before making any assumptions.
Every car accident case is different. Value depends on injury severity, medical costs, lost income, and quality of evidence. Our attorneys can give you a clear picture after reviewing your case.
Most cases resolve through negotiated settlements. However, if the insurer refuses to offer fair compensation, our attorneys are fully prepared to litigate on your behalf.
