Personal Injury Lawyers
It is a sad fact that auto accidents in the U.S. generated 3 deaths for each hour in 2010. According to studies, 80% of the traffic accidents was due to driver distraction which might have been avoided if the drivers were paying close attention to their driving. Last Oct. 2011, the anti-texting law in Nevada came into effect as a measure against drivers who text or talk while driving. With this new law put into effect, a Reno auto accident attorney can use it in cases to prosecute drivers included in causing injuries because of these behaviors.
Other than car accidents, work-related injuries are also popular in personal injury lawsuits. Lawsuits relating to worker's payment (for accidental injuries suffered on the job) are also common, with everything from direct exposure to toxic chemicals to employer negligence resulting in injury to a staff. In numerous cases, companies opt to paying lawyers thousands of dollars instead of paying millions to employee injury claims.
Another popular explanation to contact a lawyer specializing in Reno, NV personal injury law is an accident including a product or service defect, such as the spate of Toyota unintended acceleration cases last year. In fact, even a situation just like an assault on someone else (which should result in a criminal case being filed) may end in a personal injury lawsuit filing in conjunction with the criminal case.
