Every personal injury lawsuit will have unique elements that will make it differ from other cases. However, there are some primary factors that will be considered in determining the amount of compensation to pursue for accident victims. They are as follows:
Pain or Suffering. If your personal injury has left you with long or short term discomfort, you can factor this into your financial compensation. Even if the pain is emotional, the Las Vegas accident attorneys at Koch & Brim can help you determine what you are entitled to.
Medical Bills. Even very minor injuries can rack up extensive medical bills. You might need to consider not only the previous medical expenses, but also factor in any additional medical treatments that you will need for your injuries.
Loss of Wages. If your serious injuries are severe enough, they might keep you from returning to your previous job functions in the same capacity. If you were forced to take an extended period of time off of work to recover, you can factor in the missing wages and loss of earning capacity.
===========================================================
It is always recommended to seek medical attention immediately after an injury, just in case there are any major or unforeseen complications. That being said, you should contact an injury lawyer as soon as you safely can. A lawyer can take on necessary communication with the insurance company and all other parties while you focus on getting medical care.
Be sure you don’t wait too long, though. There is a limited period of time called the Statute of Limitations, in which you can legally submit a claim for injuries. In the state of Nevada, the standard statute of limitations for filing a Personal Injury case is 2 years, according to Nev. Rev. Stat. § 11.190(4)(e) (2016). For a Wrongful Death claim, it is also 2 years, according to Nev. Rev. Stat. § 11.190(4)(e) (2016).
What is negligence? – In a Las Vegas personal injury case, there usually exists a responsible party that failed to meet certain safety requirements and resulted in the accident or injury. This is considered “Negligence.” If the courts determine that the responsible party failed to meet these requirements, then the victims involved would be liable for damages. The easiest example of this is car accidents. Partial fault can also be a factor in cases in Nevada, so a percentage of fault would have to be determined for both parties, and factored into the compensation amounts.
Our Las Vegas personal injury lawyers are selective in the cases that they accept. This enables us to dedicate our full attention to each case. No matter what unique elements your personal injury case involves, we will tailor our legal services to pursue a resolution that works for you and your family. We are passionate about helping clients fight for compensation.
It can be critical to hire an attorney to represent you during a personal injury claim in Las Vegas. The insurance company that receives your claim does not want what’s best for you or your family. Insurance companies are for-profit organizations that put themselves before their clients. This can make it difficult to recover the financial compensation that you require for your medical bills. An attorney, on the other hand, works for you. Your attorney will go the extra mile to maximize your financial recovery.
