Car Accidents in Nevada
Driving is dangerous and a way of life for the majority of Nevadans. Car accidents in the state are on the rise, increasing every year. 2022 was one of the most fatal years for Nevada roads in the past 30 years. The Nevada Department of Public Safety (NDPS) reports that 382 people died in Nevada in 352 recorded collisions that year. The majority of these accidents took place in Clark County, home to Las Vegas, making up nearly four percent of reported collisions. Crash victims should collaborate with a qualified attorney to achieve the most compensation possible for their injuries and other damages.
Too much is at risk following a major crash to trust your claim to chance or a large insurance provider.
