Car Wrecks in Nevada
Car accidents are still the most common cause of fatalities and serious injuries in the United States, and Nevada roads are notoriously unsafe. Unfortunately, statistics show that the number of collisions in the state is on the rise. Over the past ten years, the state has seen a considerable rise in the number of deadly collisions and resulting traffic fatalities. A recent study from the Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) states that 285 crashes in Nevada last year resulted in the deaths of 304 individuals. Nearly one thousand people were seriously injured in car accidents that year. If you are hurt by a reckless driver, you should work closely with a trained lawyer to pursue a full recovery.
Most Nevadans consider driving to be a way of life, and most of us rely on driving to get around in our daily lives. Residents of the state are more likely to be involved in a serious accident since we spend so much time driving. An automobile accident has the power to disrupt your life in the blink of an eye permanently. After a devastating car accident, you have to do everything within your power to make sure you and your loved ones get all the fair compensation you are due. This often means partnering with a skilled legal team with a proven history of helping injured parties pursue full recoveries. You shouldn't attempt to pursue compensation on your own if you were in a collision. The process of filing a personal injury claim is extremely difficult, and most crash victims are unaware of their legal rights.
