The Role of a Premises Liability Lawyer

The legal theories involved vary depending on the situation, which is why working with an attorney matters so much.

We examine the full picture to determine how strong your claim.

This practice area is designed for people who suffered injuries while on someone else's property — tenants, passersby, and in certain cases even uninvited individuals under specific legal circumstances.

Premises Liability Lawyer Frequently Asked Questions

Below are answers to the things people most frequently ask about retaining a premises liability lawyer:

Will I have to pay upfront to work with a premises liability lawyer?

At our firm, we work on a no-win, no-fee arrangement. Simply put, you owe us nothing at the start until a recovery is made on your behalf. We collect a portion of your final recovery, so you can move forward without worrying about money to pursue your claim.

How much time should I expect my premises liability case to take?

How long your claim takes varies based on the specific circumstances, including the severity of your injuries. Straightforward claims may resolve in a few months, while claims that require litigation can extend over multiple years. We provide you a candid assessment of expected duration as part of your initial case review.

What if I was partially at fault for my accident — can I still recover?

Nevada uses a comparative negligence standard. Under this rule, you can pursue compensation as long as you were not more than 50% responsible. The amount you recover is lowered by the degree to which you contributed. A premises liability lawyer can help minimize any blame assigned by the defense during negotiations or trial.

What is the statute of limitations for premises liability claims in Nevada?

According to state statutes, most premises liability claims must be brought to court no later than two years from when the injury occurred. Missing this deadline can permanently destroy your claim. This is exactly why speaking with an attorney as soon as possible after your accident is strongly advised.

What types of compensation can I recover in a premises liability case?

Successful claimants may be eligible for a range of damages. This generally covers medical expenses — both past and future, all work-related financial losses, pain and suffering, and property damage in applicable cases. In instances of willful or wanton negligence, punitive damages may also be available.
