Car Crashes in Nevada
Not only can driving be dangerous, but it is a way of life for most of us in Nevada. Reno is a rapidly expanding city with many drivers on the road and thousands of recorded crashes annually. There were 237,338 car accidents reported in the city between 2016 and 2020. There were injuries in 100,060 of these collisions overall. Nearly half of the collisions in the Silver State involve drunk drivers. Car crashes continue to be the leading source of fatalities and major injuries in the state, and you can get hurt in one practically every time you drive. Following a catastrophic accident, your actions are crucial, and only an experienced attorney can assist you in building a compelling case that will maximize your recovery.
