Premises Liability Claims in Las Vegas, NV
Premises liability is a delicate area of the law. For this reason, it is important that victims get legal advice early on in their cases. When someone has been injured because of an abnormality on the premises, it is important that he or she speak with a lawyer right away.
A competent and experienced personal injury attorney can help victims of premises liability maximize their chances for recovery of damages by thoroughly investigating the accident and uncovering prior accidents at the same location.
The sooner a victim gets an experienced attorney involved in his or her case, the stronger the case will be.
In addition to time constraints, it is important that victims hire an attorney who is familiar with the area law and how premises liability cases are handled there.
Nevada has very specific laws concerning premises liability claims, so it is important that your lawyer has experience in those types of cases.

In Nevada, patrons of an establishment are expected to act reasonably and heed warnings that are posted on the premises. Injuries sustained as a consequence of unreasonable behavior (i.e. attempting to show off or engage in horseplay) may not be compensated for by the business owner if the patron was warned about what could happen if he or she did not act reasonably.
Dog bites and other animal-related injuries are also governed by Nevada’s dog bite laws, which means that the victim may not be compensated if he knew a dog was on the premises but did not take reasonable precautions to avoid it.
