Las Vegas Personal Injury Attorneys

The value of your personal injury claim will depend on several factors, including:

-The severity of your injuries

-The amount of your medical bills

-The extent of your lost income

-Whether your earning capacity has been diminished

-The amount of insurance coverage available

-Whether you share fault for your incident

-The strength of your evidence

Typically, cases involving serious injuries are worth the most. Still, the best way to determine your case’s worth is to schedule a free consultation with an experienced personal injury lawyer. Contact an experienced personal injury attorney at Battle Born for help calculating your claim’s value.

Most Las Vegas injury attorneys work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless they secure a favorable result in your case. The lawyer will receive a pre-agreed-upon percentage of your awarded compensation.

The percentage is based on the complexity of your claim, the severity of your injuries, and the parties involved. During your initial consultation, you’ll discuss the payment arrangement and agree on a percentage that the attorney will get if they win on your behalf.

At Battle Born, we offer a free initial consultation, and you pay absolutely nothing unless we secure a settlement or verdict in your favor. Contact our legal team to learn more about creating an attorney-client relationship.

If you’ve been injured due to someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to economic and non-economic damages, as well as punitive damages to cover your losses.

Economic damages cover the financial costs associated with your injuries, including:

• Past and future medical costs
• Lost income
• Loss of earning capacity
• Out-of-pocket expenses, such as the cost of nursing care or prescription medications

Non-economic damages cover your personal losses that are more difficult to value, such as:

• Pain and suffering
• Disfigurement and scarring
• Physical impairment
• Inconvenience
• Loss of quality of life

If the defendant acted maliciously, you may also be entitled to punitive damages. These losses are awarded to punish the defendant and set an example to deter the bad conduct. If you were injured because someone was careless, contact our Las Vegas office to explore your legal options.

You’ll have two years to file a lawsuit after most accidents in Nevada. The clock typically starts running on the date of your injury.

This time limit is called a statute of limitations. It encourages accident victims to file their personal injury claims while witnesses and evidence are still available and relevant.

Consult our attorneys to determine the deadline to file your claim.

Negligence is the failure to act with reasonable care, resulting in harm or damage to another person.

The four elements of negligence are:

• The defendant owed you a duty of care. For example, a doctor owes their patients a duty to act with a reasonable standard of care. Drivers owe those sharing the roads a duty to drive carefully and follow traffic laws.
• The defendant breached their duty of care by acting carelessly (or intentionally).
• The breach directly caused your injury, and the harm was a foreseeable result.
• You sustained damages, such as medical expenses, lost wages, and inconvenience.

To prove the elements of negligence, we’ll gather evidence, including medical records, accident reports, photographs and videos of the scene and your injuries, and expert opinions.
