Negligence is a key concept in personal injury law. To win a personal injury case, you must prove that the defendant owed you a duty of care, breached that duty, and caused your injuries as a result. For example, drivers have a duty to operate their vehicles safely. If a driver runs a red light and causes an accident, they may be deemed negligent.
Nevada follows a modified comparative negligence rule. This means that if you are partially at fault for the accident, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. However, if you are found to be 51% or more at fault, you cannot recover any damages. This rule emphasizes the importance of having a strong legal advocate who can minimize your assigned fault and maximize your compensation.
The statute of limitations sets a deadline for filing a personal injury lawsuit. In Nevada, you generally have two years from the date of the injury to file a claim. Failing to meet this deadline can result in your case being dismissed, which is why it’s crucial to act promptly and consult with an attorney as soon as possible.
The first step in pursuing a personal injury claim is to schedule a consultation with an experienced lawyer. During this meeting, you’ll discuss the details of your case, and the attorney will assess whether you have a viable claim. This initial consultation is crucial in determining the best course of action.
Once you’ve hired a lawyer, they will begin investigating your case. This may involve gathering evidence such as police reports, medical records, and witness statements, as well as consulting with experts who can provide testimony on your behalf. The goal is to build a strong case that clearly establishes the defendant’s liability.
Your lawyer will file a claim with the at-fault party’s insurance company, outlining the damages you’re seeking and providing the evidence supporting your case. The claim will typically include a demand letter that details the compensation you’re requesting.
Insurance companies often try to settle claims quickly and for as little money as possible. Your lawyer will negotiate with the insurance adjuster to secure a fair settlement that covers all of your losses. This process can involve several rounds of negotiation, but having a skilled attorney on your side can make a significant difference in the outcome.
If a fair settlement cannot be reached, your lawyer may recommend filing a lawsuit and taking the case to court. Litigation involves taking your case to trial, where a judge or jury will decide the outcome. Although most personal injury cases are settled before trial, having a skilled litigator on your side is crucial in case your case goes to court.
