Car accidents can happen in an instant, but while many only last a few seconds, their long-term consequences can last a lifetime. If you’ve been injured in a collision, there’s a good chance that you’re already dealing with these consequences. Besides the emotional turmoil that results from a collision, there’s also the very real financial weight. Medical bills, lost wages, and dealing with insurance companies can quickly become overwhelming.

Car Accident Lawyer Winchester, NV
Car accidents can have many causes, but regardless of the cause, you have every right to pursue compensation, especially if you believe that negligence or recklessness contributed to the crash. Winchester sits in Clark County, just east of the Las Vegas Strip, making it a high-traffic area. Besides heavy traffic, drivers can also be driving while under the influence.
Nevada follows a modified comparative negligence rule, which means you can recover damage as long as you’re not more than 50% at fault. Your total compensation can be reduced depending on the percentage that you’re at fault. Insurance companies understand this, and they may try to use this as leverage to reduce any settlement amount you’re entitled to.
A settlement can cover much more than immediate medical costs. Depending on the severity of the accident, you may find yourself needing medical care for months, years, or even the rest of your life. Our team can also pursue compensation for lost wages or job rehabilitation if the accident leaves you unable to work. While these factors often have exact financial price tags, there’s also the very real cost of items like emotional distress and pain and suffering.
Our team knows how to negotiate with the insurance companies to force a settlement. While car accident cases are usually won outside of the courtroom, we have no problems taking a case to trial!
