Personal Injury

Car accidents are among the leading causes of injury and death in the United States. The immediate aftermath of a car wreck can be chaotic. From road debris to injuries to hit and run driver, you might not know where to turn. Our car accident attorneys in Las Vegas can help by investigating the crash, compiling evidence, and fighting for the full compensation that you deserve. Although insurance investigate car crashes, insurance companies sometimes adds to the problem by attempting to limit or deny coverage.

Car accidents can be as minor as a fender bender or as major as a fatality crash. No matter the severity of the crash, injury is a possibility. Oftentimes, you will not feel the impact of injury immediately, so be sure to seek medical attention as soon as possible. The most common types of auto accidents in Las Vegas include:

Car Accidents – Whether it occurred at an intersection or on a road, a car accident entailed any type of collision that occurred between two motor vehicles or motorcycle on the road. The most common type of motor vehicle accident is a “fender bender,” but this is not the only kind as much more serious accident also constitutes car accident.

Drunk Driving Accidents – Regardless of whether it is a result of drugs or alcohol, driving under the influence is a serious threat to every other driver on the road. The result of operating under the influence includes reduced attention spans, reckless behavior, hallucination, and failing asleep. Intoxication can often cause loss of control and oftentimes results in car crashes.

Trucking Accidents – Accidents involving a semi or carrier truck are perhaps the most serious. As a result of their size, car accidents with a semi or carrier truck can leave you seriously injured and your vehicle totaled.

Motorcycle Accidents – Due to the size and build of a motorcycle, motorcyclists are especially susceptible to injuries in a collision. It is very common for motorcyclist to become dismounted from their motorcycle as a result of the force of impact from the crash.

Pedestrian/Bicycle Accidents – Pedestrians are the most vulnerable group of individuals to be involved in a car accident. Since there are no vehicles or other material to protect the fall, pedestrians take the full blunt of force from any car accidents and are more injured thereafter.

Uber & Lyft Accidents – As a passenger in a rideshare vehicle, there are numerous benefits you can recover from as a result of the crash. Not only do you enjoy the protection of the rideshare provider, you are also able to seek treatment and be compensated by the at-fault driver, even if they are the driver of the vehicle you are in.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Accidents – Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist accidents, commonly referred to as UM/UIM claims, applies when a hit-and-run occurred or when the other driver’s insurance coverage is adequate to fully compensate your injuries.

This is by no means an entire list of possible causes of an accident. However, this list represents all the most common cases PT Law has encountered.
