You were hurt, and the medical bills are arriving faster than the answers. Insurance companies start calling, work gets put on hold, and you’re left trying to figure out what comes next.

Our team investigates the accident, gathers evidence, calculates damages, and handles the legal process from start to finish. Whether the injury happened in a crash on US-50, on the Carson City Freeway, or after a fall in a local business, we work to build the strongest claim possible.
Gina Corena & Associates works on a contingency basis. Your consultation is free, and you pay no fee unless we recover compensation for you.

Personal injury cases come in many forms, but they often have one thing in common: someone failed to act with reasonable care, and another person was hurt as a result. While car accidents are among the most common claims we handle, they are far from the only ones.
In Carson City, injuries happen on busy roads, in local businesses, on private property, and in countless other everyday situations.
Our firm represents clients in a wide range of personal injury matters, including:
When a death follows an injury, Nevada law allows certain family members to bring a wrongful death claim for their losses. We handle those cases with care, compassion, and respect for the families involved.
Get medical care first, even if your injuries seem minor. Carson Tahoe Regional Medical Center provides emergency care in Carson City, and patients with severe trauma are often transferred to Renown Regional Medical Center in Reno. Delaying treatment can affect both your recovery and your claim.
Document what happened. Take photos of the scene, your injuries, and anything that may have contributed to the incident. If there were witnesses, try to get their names and contact information while the details are still fresh.
Be careful when speaking with insurance companies. An adjuster may contact you soon after the incident to request a recorded statement. Before discussing your case with them, consider speaking with a personal injury attorney about your rights and options.
Nevada uses modified comparative negligence (NRS 41.141). If you are partly responsible for the accident, your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault. However, if you are found more than 50% responsible, you recover nothing.
In most cases, the deadline is two years from the date of the injury. Missing that deadline can prevent you from pursuing compensation, regardless of the strength of your claim.
The compensation available in a personal injury case may include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related losses. While Nevada generally does not cap damages in most injury cases, different rules may apply in medical malpractice claims and cases involving government entities.
Because deadlines and legal requirements can vary from case to case, it is important to understand your rights as early as possible after an injury.
Gina Corena & Associates has represented injured Nevadans since 2013. Founder Gina Corena continues to lead the firm’s litigation department and has earned recognition from several national legal organizations.
We handle claims throughout the state, including those filed in Carson City’s First Judicial District Court, giving us firsthand experience with the laws and procedures that can affect a case. Clients choose our firm because they want experienced representation, direct communication, and a team that knows what it takes to build a strong claim.
You’ll have access to a real attorney, bilingual support in English and Spanish, and a free consultation. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay nothing unless we win.
Serious injuries happen every day in Carson City. According to local traffic safety data, the city recorded thousands of crashes between 2018 and 2022, including dozens that resulted in serious injuries. More recently, the Carson City Sheriff’s Office reported 130 injury crashes in 2024.
While Nevada’s statewide deaths fell to 381, the lowest since 2021 (Nevada Office of Traffic Safety, preliminary), the capital rose to five road deaths from three. Those 2025 numbers are preliminary.
Traffic collisions are only part of the picture. Injuries can also result from unsafe properties, falls, dog attacks, and other preventable incidents. When someone else’s negligence causes harm, Nevada law may allow you to seek compensation for the losses that follow.
Every case starts with a conversation. We’ll review what happened, discuss your injuries, and help you understand the options available to you.
From there, we gather evidence, collect records, evaluate your losses, and prepare a claim for compensation. Many cases are resolved through settlement negotiations without ever reaching a courtroom.
If a fair settlement cannot be reached, we may file a lawsuit and continue pursuing the case through litigation. While not every claim goes to trial, we prepare each case as if it could.
The experience of our attorneys ranges from insurance and commercial law to personal injury and other areas which give our team an unmatched ability to reach a favorable outcome in your case. We handle each matter with accountability and responsiveness, as if we were representing ourselves.
It depends on your medical bills, lost income, future care, and how the injury changed your life. We value a case only after we see the full picture, and the first review is free.
Car, truck, and motorcycle crashes, pedestrian and bicycle injuries, slip and fall and premises cases, dog bites, and wrongful death. If someone’s carelessness hurt you in Carson City, it is worth a free call.
Two years from the date of injury, in most cases (NRS 11.190). Claims against a government entity have a shorter notice deadline, so talk to a lawyer early.
You can still recover, as long as you were 50 percent or less to blame. Nevada reduces your award by your share of fault (NRS 41.141), and bars recovery only at 51 percent or more.
Nothing up front. We work on a contingency fee, so you pay only if we recover money for you, and the first consultation is always free.
Minor claims can often be handled on your own. If you’ve suffered a serious injury, missed work, or are having trouble with the insurance company, it’s worth speaking with an attorney.
Claims against government entities are subject to different rules and deadlines. If a city, county, or other public agency may be responsible, it’s best to speak with an attorney as soon as possible.
