Hit-and-Run Accidents in Las Vegas, NV
A hit-and-run driver who has not been found does not end your right to recover compensation. Even when the at-fault driver has not been identified, a claim may be available under your own uninsured motorist coverage.
- See a doctor today, even without visible injuries such as whiplash or internal bruising
- Do not discuss fault with any insurance company before consulting an attorney
- Preserve evidence such as dashcam footage, nearby business surveillance video, and photos of vehicle damage before it disappears
- Do not accept a settlement offer before consulting an attorney
Nevada follows a modified comparative negligence rule, meaning a victim can still recover compensation if they were less than 51% at fault for the crash (NRS 41.141). Under Nevada law, you have two years from the date of the crash, or until September 18, 2028, to file a personal injury claim (NRS 11.190).
An experienced attorney handling car accident cases in Las Vegas, NV, can help identify the fleeing driver through traffic and business camera footage before it is overwritten.
