Car Accidents in Nevada
For most Nevadans, driving is a way of life, but it can also be very dangerous. According to statistics, the state is experiencing an increase in vehicle accidents every year. 2022 was one of the deadliest years in the past three decades for traffic fatalities in the state. According to the Nevada Department of Public Safety (NDPS), 352 documented collisions resulted in 382 deaths in the state of Nevada in 2022. A little over 4 percent of fatal collisions happened in Clark County. In order to obtain the best possible settlement for their injuries and other damages, crash victims should work in tandem with an experienced lawyer.
