What to Do If Your Child is Injured in Clark County, Nevada

Was your child hurt in an accident in Las Vegas? If so, it is imperative that you take immediate action to protect their health and safety. You will want to make sure that your child is in the best position to get the professional care that they need.

Here are five steps to take if your child is injured in an accident in Southern Nevada:

    • 2. Report the accident to the appropriate parties;

 

    • 3. Secure any relevant evidence that may help prove what happened and why;

Five Things to Know About Child Injury Claims in Las Vegas

While there are many similarities between child injury claims and adult injury claims, there are also some very important differences. Your family should be prepared for what you are going to face within the personal injury claims process. Here are five key things to know about child injury claims in Las Vegas:

  • 1. Liability Standards May Be Somewhat Different in a Child Injury Claim: In Nevada, most personal injury claims are based on negligence. As Nevada is a comparative negligence state, a person can be held partially at fault for their own accident. However, the law is more forgiving towards children. In general, businesses, organizations, and other entities should take additional care to watch out for kids.
  • 2. A Parent or Guardian Pursues the Case on Behalf of the Child: Children cannot file a personal injury claim on their own. Instead, these cases are pursued by a representative of the minor. With some limited exceptions, most child injury cases in Nevada are brought by a parent or guardian on behalf of their child. Notably, the parent is still recovering compensation on the child’s behalf.
  • 3. The Statute of Limitations Can Be Less Strict: Nevada has a strict statute of limitations for personal injury claims. You must file any lawsuit before the statute of limitations in your case runs out. However, the statute of limitations is not always as strict for child injury claims. In some cases, the statute of limitations can be tolled (paused) when the victim of the accident is a child. If you have any questions about the statute of limitations in a child injury claim, an experienced Las Vegas, NV personal injury lawyer can help.
  • 4. A Child’s Future Medical Needs Must Be Considered: One complicating factor in child injury claims is that their ongoing and future medical needs must be fully accounted for. Although future medical needs are a relevant issue in all personal injury cases, determining the extent of the impact can be more difficult when the victim is a young child. Parents should be prepared to work with an experienced attorney who can help ensure that their family is properly compensated.
  • 5. A Child Injury Settlement Must Be Approved By a Court: Finally, parties have slightly less discretion to reach a settlement in a personal injury case. Under Nevada Revised Statutes § 41.200, the court must sign off on any child injury settlement case. Notably, when families have competent legal representation, Nevada courts are generally willing to approve the settlement that they reached. Still, this is an issue that should be understood and addressed within the claims process.

Recovering the Compensation You Need to Support Your Family

Through a personal injury lawsuit in Nevada, plaintiffs have the right to seek compensation for both economic and non-economic damages. Unfortunately, defendants and insurers are not known for making the claims process easy to navigate for families—even when the claim is being pursued on behalf of an injured child. Insurers try to settle cases for the lowest amount of compensation that they can get away with. At Naqvi Injury Law, our Las Vegas child injury lawyers know how to get families the full financial support that they rightfully deserve. You may be able to recover for:

  • Emergency room treatment;
  • Medical bills and other costs;
  • Physical therapy;
  • Mental health counseling;
  • Other out-of-pocket costs;
  • Diminished earning potential of the child;
  • Permanent scarring or disfigurement;
  • Permanent physical disability or impairment; and
  • Wrongful death of a child.

Although this was a long experience (most cases are) it was worth while. We came in to this case worried about not being properly represented, or being taken advantage of because of our younger age; However, Jake Suty and Ashley Cortez were extremely helpful and determined to get not only the settlement but the treatment we deserve as any other human being. They worked with us even when we had a million questions and concerns. and were able to help push for a settlement that was more fair to us than originally offered. They were comforting, knowledgeable, and overall pleasing regarding energy. Hopefully we never have to go through this again, but if we did, I know where I will be returning! Thank you all at Naqvi for your help!

If you are ever in need of a good attorney, Naqvi Injury Law should be your first stop. After a very stressful accident this was mine and I have zero regrets! Every time I called I was greeted bubbly, caring people on the other line,shout out to their intake dept! They would always ask how I was feeling so far before even connecting me to the person assisting with my case. Maggie worked diligently on getting me situated from beginning to end and communicated with me every step of the way. Meghan my attorney communicated with the insurances companies and made sure I was compensated for everything I had been through. She made sure I was comfortable with what I was getting and consulted everything with me! Thank you all for making this experience a seamless one. They aren’t all talk and get things done!
