How We Handle Your Car Accident

Las Vegas Car Accident Attorneys Advise and Represent Injury Victims

A personal injury lawyer's job after a car accident can be described in several broad categories. A description of each category gives an overview of how we handle car accidents on behalf of our clients. Contact us to schedule a consultation and learn how we can help you after a traffic accident in Las Vegas or anywhere in Utah.

Free consultation: At an initial meeting between one of our accident attorneys and the injured person or a close family member, we explain the process of pursuing compensation — and how we can help.

Investigation: We meticulously gather evidence that will shed light on the circumstances of the accident. Photographs, interviews with eyewitnesses, review of weather reports, identification of key parties in the accident (driver, auto manufacturer, insurers and others), review of the police report and a study of the crashed car itself all contribute to our understanding of how the rollover, rear-ender or highway collision occurred.

Communication: From the beginning, we work to establish open lines of communication between our law firm and the client, medical services providers, insurers and any other key relationships. We keep our clients and their close family members posted on developments in the case. We welcome questions and return phone calls promptly.

Analysis: If necessary, we will join forces with expert witnesses such as traffic engineers and accident reconstructionists to learn all there is to know about the accident. We will study all of the facts in light of relevant statutes and precedent-setting court cases that will help strengthen our clients' cases for compensation.

Presentation: We prepare every case as if for trial. Very often, settlement agreements are reached without going to court. Nonetheless, we prepare visuals and otherwise present ourselves at settlement conferences with a distinct air of trial-readiness, which causes insurers to sit up and take notice.

Negotiation or trial: We advocate zealously on behalf of every motor vehicle accident victim whom we represent. We have a track record of obtaining compensation much greater than what a legal opponent would otherwise offer.

Advice and representation: Once the "other side," usually a team of insurance claims adjusters, has made what we believe is the highest offer they are likely to make, we give our clients our educated opinions as to whether to accept or decline. If our client decides not to accept the offer, we proceed to trial — and often prevail.
