Premises Liability Lawyer Common Questions Answered

Below are some of the questions we hear most often about working with a premises liability lawyer:

Will I have to pay upfront to work with a premises liability lawyer?

In our office, we represent premises liability clients on a no-win, no-fee arrangement. Simply put, you pay nothing upfront until we win your case or reach a settlement. Our payment is a share of your total compensation, so you can move forward without worrying about money to pursue your claim.

What is the timeline for a premises liability claim?

How long your claim takes is influenced by the specific circumstances, including the severity of your injuries. Straightforward claims may settle relatively quickly, while more complex matters can take one to three years or longer. Our team will give you an honest projection during your consultation.

Does shared fault affect my premises liability claim in Nevada?

Nevada follows a modified comparative fault rule. This means, you can pursue compensation as long as your share of fault does not exceed 50%. Your damages are offset by the degree to which you contributed. A premises liability lawyer fights to reduce any fault attributed to you during the legal process.

Is there a deadline to bring a premises liability case?

In Nevada, personal injury lawsuits of this type must be brought to court no later than two years from the date of the accident. Waiting too long usually eliminates your right to sue. That is why speaking with an attorney as soon as possible after your accident is strongly advised.

What damages are available in a premises liability claim?

Injured property visitors may be eligible for a range of damages. These typically include your complete healthcare costs, lost wages and diminished earning capacity, physical pain and emotional distress, and property damage in applicable cases. In cases involving especially egregious conduct, courts may award additional punishment-based damages.
