At our firm, we work on a contingency structure. This means, you are not charged any fees until you actually receive compensation. Our payment is a share of your total compensation, so there is no financial risk to pursue your claim.

The length of a premises liability case varies based on several factors, including whether the insurance company cooperates. Straightforward claims may conclude within six months, while cases involving serious injury or disputed liability can take one to three years or longer. Our attorneys offer you a realistic timeline as part of your initial case review.

Nevada follows a modified comparative fault rule. Under this rule, you can pursue compensation as long as your share of fault does not exceed 50%. Your compensation will be reduced by whatever proportion of blame is assigned to you. A premises liability lawyer works to limit any blame assigned by the defense during the legal process.

Under Nevada law, most premises liability claims must be brought to court no later than two years from the date of the accident. Failing to act in time can permanently destroy your claim. This is exactly why reaching out to our team without delay after your accident is strongly advised.
