If you are injured while on a visit to southern Nevada, you may return home to California with your injury. But you can’t just hire a California firm to handle your personal injury claim.
Did you know that if you are hurt in Nevada but live in California, you’ll need to hire a lawyer licensed to practice in Nevada? Your injury claim will be settled or litigated in Nevada, even if you reside elsewhere. A California attorney who parachutes in to handle a case in Nevada will be at a disadvantage when going up against a Las Vegas business or Las Vegas-based insurance company.
Conversely, did you know if you live in Nevada but you were injured in California, you’ll need a lawyer who is licensed in California? Don’t put yourself at a disadvantage by hiring an attorney unfamiliar with the local civil court system.

You should report the car crash to the Las Vegas police or Nevada Highway Patrol and seek prompt medical attention to treat your injuries. You should notify your insurance company of the accident. You should continue with follow-up medical treatment as directed when you return home. You should consult with a knowledgeable Nevada personal injury attorney to understand your legal options and whether you have the right to pursue compensation from another motorist.

You should notify the police or California Highway patrol of the car accident and request an ambulance if you need emergency medical treatment. If you don’t require emergency medical care, you should seek a medical evaluation within 24 hours. You should report the accident to your insurance company. If another driver caused your injuries, talk with a California personal injury lawyer about your legal options and whether you are entitled to demand compensation from the at-fault driver.
