Automobile accidents occur every day on streets and highways of Southern Nevada. Therefore, the likelihood that you or a loved one will be involved in an accident is real. Although many auto accidents are simply minor "fender benders," others result in serious injury and property damage.

Auto accident victims who have sustained injuries are entitled to recover monetary compensation for past and future medical expenses, property damage, loss wages, loss of earning capacity, scarring, disfigurement, dismemberment, pain and suffering, interference with marital and/or parental relationships, and other types of general damages.

After an auto accident, it is critical that the injured victim immediately receive medical attention. Often injuries that appear minor after an accident turn out to be significantly worse in the following days. Proper medical treatment provides pain relief, speeds recovery and improves the probability for maximum improvement. Medical documentation of injuries is many times the best evidence of an accident-related injury. Proving injury is necessary in pursuing a claim. Our office can arrange for injured victims to receive the proper medical care.

The injured victim may become overwhelmed by the demands of an insurance company for recorded statements, insurance forms, accident reports, medical bills and various other correspondences. Our office relieves the victim of these tasks and effectively works the claim to position for a maximum recovery
