Nevada Auto Accidents
For most of us, driving is a way of life, but the road can be extremely dangerous. According to the latest statistics, the number of fatal crashes in the state has increased significantly in recent years. According to the Nevada Office of Traffic Safety (NOTS), there were 304 fatalities in the state of Nevada last year as a result of 285 fatal crashes. Each year, thousands more people are hurt in collisions across the state. Drunk drivers are involved in over half of distracted driving accidents in Nevada, showing just how reckless drivers in the state can be. In order to pursue the best claim possible if you or someone close to you has been injured in an automobile accident, you should work with an experienced attorney.
The insurance company will contact you after a car accident to gather information about the crash, but you should exercise caution while speaking with the adjuster. The insurance provider will use every tactic at its disposal to reduce or deny your claim altogether. Instead of dealing with the insurance company directly, make sure you have a lawyer who can manage those discussions as well as any more as your claim progresses. It is important that you do everything possible to protect your legal rights. When you work with a skilled legal team, you can concentrate on getting better while your attorney works to defend your legal rights. You do not want to leave you exposed during this difficult time as you pursue a full recovery.
