Pedestrian Accidents in Las Vegas

Pedestrian collisions are a growing concern in Las Vegas, especially near busy residential corridors and high-traffic intersections. These crashes often lead to significant injuries due to the lack of protection pedestrians have compared to vehicle occupants. Even at lower speeds, impacts can result in broken bones, head trauma, internal injuries, or long-term mobility issues.

Nevada law allows injured pedestrians to seek compensation for medical bills, lost wages, reduced earning capacity, rehabilitation costs, and pain and suffering. When a crash involves a juvenile, claims may also consider long-term developmental impacts. Because evidence such as surveillance footage, roadway conditions, and witness statements can be time-sensitive, early legal intervention is critical.

The statute of limitations for pedestrian injury claims in Nevada is two years, making timely action essential for preserving legal rights.
