Before You Call
Common questions, answered
Fault turns on showing the driver owed cyclists a duty, broke it, and caused the crash. Our attorneys build that record from the police report, scene and damage photos, available traffic, casino, business, and doorbell surveillance, dashcam and vehicle event-data-recorder downloads, witness statements, and the driver's own account. Nevada drivers must give cyclists at least three feet when passing (NRS 484B.270) and yield at intersections and driveways, so violations of those duties are central to proving liability.
Most valley bike crashes happen on urban streets and at intersections and driveways — including busy corridors like Boulder Highway and Eastern Avenue, resort and casino access roads, and downtown crossings — where drivers are not expecting cyclists. A large share of bicycle collisions occur at intersections, often from drivers turning across a rider's path, drifting into a bike lane, or failing to yield. The specific facts of your location and the available video drive how we prove the case.
If the driver who hit you fled and is never identified, you are not necessarily out of options. Your own uninsured motorist (UM) coverage — and in many cases a household auto policy — can apply even though you were riding a bicycle. Nevada requires drivers to carry at least 25,000 dollars per person and 50,000 dollars per accident in liability coverage, but uninsured and hit-and-run drivers leave that gap, which is exactly what UM/UIM coverage is designed to fill. We review every policy that may apply to your claim.
In Nevada, the general statute of limitations for personal injury claims is two years from the date of the accident (NRS 11.190(4)(e)). Missing that deadline almost always means losing your right to recover anything, so it is important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible after a crash.
Nevada follows modified comparative negligence with a 51% bar (NRS 41.141). As long as you are found to be 50% or less at fault, you can still recover compensation — your award is simply reduced by your percentage of fault. Insurance adjusters routinely try to shift blame onto cyclists, which is one reason having an attorney matters.
Your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage can step in when the driver who hit you carries little or no insurance. Nevada's minimum liability limits are 25,000 dollars per person and 50,000 dollars per accident, which a serious crash can exhaust quickly. Our attorneys review available coverage sources — the driver's policy, your own policy, and any other applicable policies — to identify which coverage may apply.
A claim can seek compensation for medical bills (past and future), lost wages, reduced earning capacity, pain and suffering, and property damage to your bicycle and gear. The specific value of your case depends on the severity of your injuries, how liability is established, and the insurance available. We build the claim record around the facts, records, and coverage that apply.
Call 911 so the crash is documented in a police report. Seek medical attention even if you feel fine — some injuries, especially head trauma, are not immediately obvious. Photograph the scene, your injuries, and any damage. Get the driver's insurance and contact information, and preserve your bike and gear unrepaired. Then call our office before giving any recorded statement to an insurance company.
Call (702) 850-1717 — no pressure for the first 10 minutes.
