Nevada Car Accident Law: Modified Fault and Deadlines
Handling an injury claim in Nevada requires an intimate understanding of specific state statutes.
Nevada’s Modified Comparative Negligence
Nevada is a modified comparative negligence state. This means that if you are found to be partially at fault for the accident, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault.
If a jury determines you are more than 50% at fault, you are legally barred from recovering any compensation. Our primary job is to minimize your assigned fault and maximize the defendant’s liability.
Statute of Limitations
The time limit to file a personal injury lawsuit is strict:
Personal Injury Claims
You generally have two (2) years from the date of the accident to file suit.
Property Damage
You typically have three (3) years to file a lawsuit for damage to your vehicle.
If you miss this deadline, you forfeit your right to seek compensation.
