Las Vegas, Nevada Personal Injury Lawyer Resources
150 articles from our library
Las Vegas injury cases are shaped by two things outsiders rarely think about: a huge transient visitor population and a hospitality economy that generates an unusual volume of premises, slip-and-fall, and assault cases on top of the expected car crashes on I-15, US-95, and the 215 Beltway. When a visitor is injured on the Strip or at a resort, the defendants are typically sophisticated casino operators with in-house legal teams and long-standing relationships with specific defense firms. That changes how you have to prepare a case from day one.
Nevada follows modified comparative fault with a 51 percent bar. If you are 50 percent or less at fault, your damages are reduced by your percentage of blame; at 51 percent or more, you recover nothing. Nevada generally applies a two-year statute of limitations to personal injury claims, but claims against government entities have their own strict notice requirements, and medical malpractice and wrongful death follow different rules. In my 32 years of practice I have watched promising cases die from missed deadlines that could easily have been preserved with an early phone call.
Goldberg & Loren represents injured clients throughout the Las Vegas Valley: Strip incidents, rideshare crashes, trucking wrecks, pedestrian strikes, dog bites, and wrongful death cases. George Goldberg founded the firm after beginning his legal career defending airlines and insurers in 1994 and switching to the plaintiff side in 1996. That background is directly useful in Las Vegas, where adjusters, casino risk managers, and defense firms run a familiar playbook of quick lowball offers, aggressive recorded statements, and surveillance the moment a claim is filed.
Below are our Las Vegas articles on the most common injury claims we handle here, plus FAQs covering questions our Nevada clients ask us most often in a first consultation.
