Do these four things now

The first few days decide a lot of cases. In order:

1
See a doctor todayInjuries can show up days later. If there's a gap in treatment, the insurer will use it against you. No insurance? We'll get you seen.
2
Don't give a recorded statementYou don't have to. Adjusters are trained to get you to say things that lower your claim. Say: "My lawyer will call you."
3
Keep everything. Let us send a preservation letterTruck data and driver logs can be lost. Keep photos, the police report number and the names of witnesses. We ask the company in writing to keep its records.
4
Don't sign anything. Call us.Early release forms and medical authorizations are written to limit what they owe you. A ten-minute call costs nothing and tells you where you stand.

Las Vegas truck accident questions we get every day

Straight answers. No fine print.

Who is responsible, the driver or the company?
Often more than one: the driver, the trucking company, the trailer owner, or a maintenance or loading company. We look at all of them.
What if I was partly at fault?
In Nevada, you cannot recover if your share of fault is greater than the combined fault of those you claim against. Otherwise, compensation is reduced by your share of fault. An insurer's claim about your share does not decide it. We review the evidence and the law that applies to your claim.
How much do you charge?
Nothing up front. We only get paid if you do. Our fee is a percentage of the money we get for you. You see it and sign it before we start. If we don't win, you owe nothing, not even case costs.

More about truck accident cases in Las Vegas

Updated October 2026. General information, not legal advice about your case.

Truck accidents in Las Vegas: what to know

Big rigs, delivery trucks and construction trucks share I-15, US-95, the 215 Beltway and Las Vegas Boulevard with commuters every day. A loaded tractor-trailer can weigh up to 80,000 pounds, so a crash with a car often causes catastrophic injuries.

Why truck cases are different

  • More than one company can be responsible. The driver, the trucking company, the company that loaded the cargo, and the company that maintained the truck can all share fault.
  • Federal safety rules apply. Interstate truck drivers generally may drive no more than 11 hours after 10 hours off duty, and must take a 30-minute break after 8 hours of driving (FMCSA). Breaking these rules can prove fault.
  • More insurance. Interstate for-hire freight carriers must carry at least $750,000 in liability coverage (49 CFR 387.9), much more than a passenger car.
  • The evidence is in the company's hands. Electronic logs, engine data, dashcam video, maintenance records and the driver's file. Much of it can be overwritten or discarded. A lawyer should send a preservation letter right away.

Nevada rules that shape your case

  • Shared fault. Nevada reduces your compensation by your share of the blame. If your share is greater than the share of the people you are suing, you recover nothing.
  • Deadlines vary. How long you have depends on the type of case and who is responsible. Claims against a government agency, such as the RTC, NDOT, Clark County or a city, can have deadlines measured in months. Call early.

Where your case is handled

Most Las Vegas injury lawsuits are filed in the Eighth Judicial District Court in Clark County. Most cases settle before trial. When an insurer will not pay fairly, we are ready to try the case.

What to do now

  1. Get medical care, and keep going to follow-up visits.
  2. Do not talk to the trucking company or its insurer.
  3. Save photos of the truck, including the company name and DOT number on the door, and witness names.
  4. Ask nearby businesses to save video right away. See how long camera footage is kept.
  5. Call us. The truck's data and logs must be preserved quickly. The consultation is free, and there is no fee or cost unless we recover money for you.
