Compensation You May Recover for a Catastrophic Injury
Under Nevada law, catastrophic injury victims can pursue economic and non-economic damages for their losses. Depending on your circumstances and the aftermath of your accident, we may recover:
- Healthcare costs
- Future medical care
- Property damage
- Lost wages
- Diminished earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Psychological trauma
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Scarring and disfigurement

Our award-winning Nevada car accident lawyer team thoroughly documents all damages you have sustained and will continue to experience throughout your lifetime. We work with reputable medical professionals, economists, and vocational experts to establish the full value of your claim.
Statute of Limitations
Nevada Revised Statutes § 11.190(4)(e) imposes a two-year statute of limitations for filing personal injury claims and lawsuits arising from negligence. You generally have two years from the date of your injury to pursue compensation for your losses. Certain circumstances may shorten or lengthen this deadline, making immediate contact with our attorneys vital to your case.
Determining Fault
Establishing who bears responsibility for your catastrophic injury requires thorough investigation and legal analysis. Many accidents involve multiple parties of liability, and we file multiple claims to ensure full recovery for your injuries, regardless of which scenario your claim falls under:
- Negligence: We prove the at-fault party owed you a duty of care, breached that duty, and directly caused your injuries through their careless actions or failure to act.
- Strict liability: Product liability claims may not require proof of negligence when defective products cause harm.
- Intentional conduct: Some catastrophic injuries result from deliberate acts that give rise to both civil and criminal liability.
- Premises liability: Property owners who fail to maintain safe conditions may be held accountable when hazards cause serious harm.
Nevada follows a modified comparative negligence rule under NRS § 41.141, which bars recovery if you are more than 50% at fault. Our legal team builds compelling evidence to establish the defendant’s complete responsibility for your injuries.
Handling Insurance Companies
Insurance adjusters will contact you soon after your accident, often appearing sympathetic while encouraging you to provide recorded statements. They regularly advise injury victims that legal representation isn’t necessary, knowing they can drastically reduce payouts when claimants proceed without counsel.
Communication
We protect you from insurance company tactics designed to undermine the value of your claim. Our catastrophic injury attorneys handle all communications with adjusters, preventing them from obtaining recorded statements or other information they might twist to deny or diminish your compensation.
Negotiation
Insurance companies routinely make lowball settlement offers that fail to account for the long-term consequences of catastrophic injuries. Hanratty Law Group rejects inadequate proposals and presents comprehensive demand packages that document every element of your damages. We negotiate aggressively on your behalf, leveraging our reputation for trial work to encourage fair settlement offers.
Litigation
When insurers refuse to offer reasonable compensation, we don’t hesitate to file lawsuits and pursue your case through litigation. Our attorneys have extensive trial experience and prepare every case as if it will go before a jury. Our willingness to take cases to trial motivates insurance companies to make serious settlement offers rather than risk substantial jury verdicts.
