Ash Watkins of Sam & Ash Injury Law Shares Fourth of July Safety and Insurance Tips on KSNV Local Living with Bryan Thomas

The Fourth of July is one of the best days of the year in Las Vegas. It’s also one of the most dangerous.

Ashley Watkins of Sam & Ash Injury Law recently joined Bryan Thomas of KSNV News 3 on Local Living to break down exactly why — and what you can do about it. From drunk driving crashes and pool accidents to fireworks injuries, heat emergencies, and dayclub incidents, the holiday weekend creates risks that most people don’t think about until it’s too late.

Whether you’re headed to a backyard barbecue, a pool party, a fireworks show, a lake trip, or a Las Vegas dayclub this summer, the conversation covers what you need to know before you go.

Here’s what the segment covers:

Your insurance — before the weekend starts. Most people don’t think about their coverage until after something goes wrong. The segment explains why reviewing your uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage (UM/UIM) before the holiday weekend matters, and why it could make the difference between being protected and being stuck. If you’re hosting a gathering, your homeowner’s or renter’s liability insurance deserves a look too.

The real danger on the roads. Holiday driving is more hazardous than people expect. Impaired drivers are out in force, traffic is heavier, and distractions multiply. The segment covers what to watch for and the critical mistakes people make when dealing with insurance companies after a crash — mistakes that can cost them far more than the accident itself.

Pool safety and drowning prevention. Pools are a Fourth of July staple in Las Vegas, and they’re also one of the holiday’s most serious hazards, especially for children. The segment addresses what it takes to keep kids safe around water and what property owners are responsible for when something goes wrong.

Las Vegas dayclub safety. Dayclubs are uniquely Las Vegas, and they carry unique risks. The segment addresses what resorts are responsible for when guests are injured, and what you should know before you go.

Fireworks, grills, and heat. Fireworks injuries, grill accidents, and heat-related emergencies send thousands of people to the emergency room every Fourth of July. The segment covers the simple steps that prevent most of them.

What to do if you’re injured. If someone else’s negligence hurts you, how you respond in the hours and days after matters enormously. The segment walks through what to do (and not to do) when dealing with insurance companies after an accident.

The message throughout is straightforward: most Fourth of July injuries are preventable. And for those that aren’t, knowing your rights and your coverage before the weekend starts puts you in a far stronger position.

Watch the full segment above, and share it with someone who could use it before the holiday weekend.
