Some injuries happen as the result of genuine accidents where no one is truly at fault. However, in many cases, you can identify how another person’s negligence contributed to your injury.

Why Do You Need a Green Valley Personal Injury Attorney?

If you’ve suffered a serious injury because someone else was negligent, you already know how challenging it is to try to pay medical bills while dealing with intense physical pain. You may be unable to work, and even getting through each day can be a struggle.

How Much Does It Cost To Work With a Green Valley Personal Injury Lawyer?
Most people who have just suffered a serious injury aren’t in a financial position to spend thousands on an attorney upfront. That’s part of why most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency basis. This means we only get paid if we recover compensation for you.
If you’re considering working with us, there’s no financial risk to you. The process starts with a free consultation where we discuss your case with you. If we think you have a strong chance of winning, we’ll offer to work with you.
If you accept, you sign an agreement promising to pay us a certain percentage of your compensation if we win your case. In the unusual event that we don’t secure compensation, you owe nothing. Either way, there’s no scenario where you have to pay anything out of pocket.
When Should You Call a Lawyer?
If you suffer a serious injury, your top priority should be to seek medical care. Once you’ve reached at least some level of medical stability, you can start thinking about your case.
Generally, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases in Nevada is two years. That means you have two years from the date of your injury to file a lawsuit.
Some people hear that and think they have plenty of time to contact an attorney and wait until the very last minute to do so. However, this is not a good idea.
When you consult with a personal injury attorney, your lawyer doesn’t file a lawsuit right away. They take time to research your case, gather evidence, and arrange the evidence in a way that presents a cohesive argument. They also will usually attempt to negotiate a settlement with the other side’s insurance company, which also takes time.
Having a strong case dramatically increases your chances of receiving a fair settlement. If your attorney has to speed through the process just to make the deadline for the statute of limitations, your case will likely be weaker, and there’s a greater chance that you could walk away with nothing.
How To Choose the Right Personal Injury Lawyer
The right lawyer makes a major difference in any personal injury case. You could have the strongest case in the world, but if your lawyer doesn’t make an effective argument on your behalf, there’s a chance you could lose anyway. Here are some tips for choosing the right lawyer:
- Ask if the lawyer has experience with your specific kind of personal injury
- Make sure you fully understand their fee structure before signing an agreement
- Take a look at their track record to ensure they have a history of winning cases
- Pay attention to their communication style, and make sure they clearly explain concepts and answer questions
- Check out their client testimonials to verify that their clients are satisfied
- Verify their credentials with the Nevada Bar Association
There’s another important consideration many people overlook. Your personal injury lawyer should be someone you’re comfortable talking to and discussing highly personal situations with. Many cases last for months (and some take years), and having an attorney you feel you can trust makes a difficult situation just a bit easier to get through.

What Kind of Compensation Can You Receive?
Many of our clients are understandably curious about the kind of compensation they can receive. The exact damages (compensation for losses) you can recover will depend on your case, but these are some of the most common types.
Medical Bills
When most people think of personal injury lawsuits, they immediately think of medical bills. Paying medical costs on your own after a serious injury can cause tremendous financial stress. If your medical bills are significant enough, it may be impossible for you to pay them without help.
If we take your case, we’ll fight for you to receive compensation for all your medical costs so you can access the care you need without going into debt.
Lost Income
In most instances, serious injuries will stop you from working — at least temporarily. If you are the primary breadwinner for your household, being suddenly unable to work can be a financial disaster. Financial compensation can help to ensure you can pay all of your bills and living expenses while you heal.
Lost Earning Capacity
Some injuries may leave you with a partial or total disability. If this happens, we may be able to advocate for you to be compensated for the difference in your earning capacity.
For example, imagine you work a physically challenging construction job and earn $50,000 per year. You get in an accident caused by a drunk driver and are paralyzed from the waist down. Since you can no longer work in construction, you take a job as the company’s receptionist and make $30,000 per year.
In this instance, your attorney may be able to advocate for you to be awarded the difference — the extra $20,000 per year you could still be making if you hadn’t been injured.
Pain and Suffering
“Pain and suffering” is a phrase often used to encompass non-economic damages or losses to which you can’t easily assign a dollar value. Non-economic damages commonly include compensation for losses like:
- Emotional distress
- Disfigurement
- Physical pain
- Inconvenience
- Diminished quality of life
- Loss of consortium
Non-economic damages can be difficult to value. However, when you work with an experienced Green Valley personal injury law firm, your attorney will likely be able to fairly and accurately assign them a monetary value.
