A Local Attorney: Records, Locations,  And  Police Interaction

Every legal jurisdiction is different. When you hire an attorney in your hometown, chances are he or she won’t have experience with the laws governing the Las Vegas personal injury claim you are making. A non-local attorney may not even be licensed to practice law in Nevada.

These reasons make it essential to hire a Las Vegas tourist accident attorney to handle your case.

A local attorney has the ability to interact with police, acquire the necessary documentation and medical records, and properly conduct a local investigation. We have both the local knowledge and the experience to see your case to a successful conclusion.

Compensation for Expenses  and Damages

If you have been injured, you may be eligible for compensation. A local attorney can represent your best interests and see that you receive compensation for a number of expenses and damages:

  • Expenses associated with needing to stay in Las Vegas during your recovery
  • Lost wages for being unable to return to work
  • Medical care and ongoing physical therapy or treatments
  • Any financial loss resulting from your injuries

Common Vacation Injuries  

You may have the opportunity to seek damages for any injuries suffered in the following scenarios:

  • Slip-and-fall accidents
  • Bug/ Spider Bites
  • Car crashes
  • Parking lot accidents
  • Elevator injuries
  • Swimming pool injuries

Las Vegas Premises Liability 

Las Vegas hotels and resorts have a reasonable responsibility to provide you with a safe and hazard-free vacation. When they violate these requirements, due to negligence or other means, they are then liable for any injuries that may result. A personal injury lawsuit may be your best option for recovering financial compensation in these scenarios.

True Limitations On Personal Injury Cases

Under Nevada state law, if you have been injured as a tourist, you have two years to file a personal injury lawsuit. This makes it critical to hire a Las Vegas tourist accident attorney immediately. Hotels and resorts, and their insurance companies, will often try to stall during negotiations. Don’t let them make you miss your window of opportunity for compensation.

Gathering Evidence

Your Las Vegas tourist accident attorney will need to demonstrate a number of things in order to build a strong case:

  • That you were injured while in Las Vegas
  • How the injury occurred and why
  • That someone else was negligent and that this negligence caused your accident
  • How your injuries have impacted you financially or will in the future

Evidence must be gathered and a case built for why you deserve compensation. This is why you need an experienced Las Vegas tourist accident attorney on your side.
