Truck Accident

If you get in an accident with a big rig truck, you will almost always come out on the losing end—with more severe injuries and greater damage to your vehicle. And unfortunately, large truck accidents can often result in death. In 2017, trucks were involved in over 8 percent of all fatal vehicle accidents in Nevada. If you’ve suffered injuries in a truck accident, or a loved one was fatally injured by a trucker, a Henderson Truck Accident Attorney may be able to help you recover damages you’ve suffered through a lawsuit. Make the phone call soon, though, because under Nevada law, you only have two years (known as the statute of limitations) from the date of your accident to file a lawsuit. That might seem like a long time, but the sooner you get your attorney involved, the better off you’ll be.

Filing a lawsuit isn’t just throwing some words on a piece of paper. Your lawyer needs to make sure you bring a suit against the proper party, that the case has a sound legal basis, and that she can get the right people on your team (expert witnesses, investigators, and others).
