In our office, we take on injury cases on a no-win, no-fee arrangement. This means, you are not charged any fees until you actually receive compensation. Our payment is a share of your settlement or verdict, so there is no financial risk to hold a negligent property owner accountable.

How long your claim takes depends on the specific circumstances, including how complex the liability question is. Cases with clear liability may resolve in a few months, while more complex matters can extend over multiple years. We provide you a candid assessment of expected duration during your consultation.

Nevada uses a comparative negligence standard. Under this rule, you can bring a claim as long as you were not more than 50% responsible. Your compensation will be reduced by whatever proportion of blame is assigned to you. A premises liability lawyer fights to reduce any responsibility placed on your shoulders during settlement discussions.
