How We Help: A Personalized Approach to Back Injury Cases
“Amputation” is another word for the loss of all or part of a limb, such as a finger, toe, hand, foot, arm, or leg.
A limb can be severed due to a sudden accident or impact, such as a car crash or workplace mishap. This is called a “traumatic amputation.”
When a limb is not severed but is too damaged to preserve, doctors may perform a surgical amputation. These surgeries may also be performed due to infection, cancer, or other diseases. In some cases, surgical amputations may result from medical malpractice.
Amputations have a devastating and irreversible impact on a person's life. If you or a loved one is dealing with the physical, emotional, and financial challenges of losing a limb, consider consulting an attorney to understand your rights and options for compensation.

If you have pain, numbness, or tingling following an accident, it’s important to seek medical attention. Symptoms of a back injury may take some time to fully develop, but a doctor can assess you and begin treatment right away.
Determining Liability in Your Las Vegas Back Injury Case
Determining liability for your back injury is crucial to winning your case. Here are some common parties that could be liable:

Motorcyclists who violate traffic laws or operate their vehicles recklessly

Truck drivers who may be fatigued, distracted, or overloaded.

How to Know If You Have a Strong Back Injury Case
To determine whether you have a valid case, we need to establish negligence. Negligence occurs when someone breaches their duty of care, resulting in harm to another person. To establish negligence, we need to prove that:
- The defendant owed you a duty of care.
- The defendant breached their duty by failing to act reasonably.
- The defendant’s negligence directly caused your back injury.
- You suffered damages as a result of the injury.
It's important to note that every case is unique, and the specific factors that determine whether a case is strong vary. If you have suffered a back injury due to the negligence of another, it's essential to speak with a back injury attorney who can evaluate your situation and advise you on your options.
Recoverable Damages for Back Injuries in Nevada
Suffering a back injury can have a significant impact on your life, causing physical pain, emotional distress, and financial hardship. If your back injury was caused by someone else's negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for your losses, including:
Medical Expenses
This includes all costs associated with your back injury treatment, both past, present, and future. This can include doctor's visits, surgeries, medications, physical therapy, and any other related medical care.
Lost Wages
This covers wages you have lost or will lose due to your inability to work because of the back injury.
Pain and Suffering
This compensates you for the physical and emotional distress you have endured as a result of your back injury. This can include pain, suffering, discomfort, emotional distress, anxiety, and other intangible harms.
Loss of Enjoyment of Life
This recognizes the loss of activities and experiences you previously enjoyed due to your back injury. This can include hobbies, recreation, social activities, and other aspects of your life that have been negatively impacted.
Loss of Consortium
If you are married, your spouse may be able to seek compensation for the loss of your companionship, support, and services due to your back injury.
Punitive Damages
In cases where the defendant's actions were particularly reckless, malicious, or intentional, punitive damages may be awarded. Punitive damages aim to punish the defendant and deter similar behavior.
Property Damage
If the accident that caused your back injury also damaged your vehicle or other property, you may be entitled to compensation for repairs or replacement.
It is crucial to remember that the specific damages available in each case will depend on individual circumstances and the specific laws in Nevada. Consulting with an attorney who has experience in back injury cases is highly recommended.
Nevada's Limits on Back Injury Settlements
In Nevada, there are specific limits on the amount of compensation you can receive for certain types of damages, particularly pain and suffering in medical malpractice cases, punitive damages, and claims against government employees. These limits are set by Nevada law to ensure fairness and prevent excessive awards.
It is crucial to understand these limits because they can impact the overall compensation you receive for your back injury. Our team navigates these legal complexities and will work diligently to maximize your potential recovery within the bounds of Nevada law.

What If I Was Partially at Fault for My Back Injury?
In Nevada, the law recognizes that accidents often involve shared responsibility. Even if you contributed to the accident that caused your back injury, you may still be able to recover compensation.
Nevada's modified comparative negligence rule allows for compensation, but your award will be reduced based on your percentage of fault — as long as you are not 51% or more responsible for the accident.
For example, if you are found to be 20% at fault for the accident, your compensation will be reduced by 20%. Our team will work diligently to present a strong case that minimizes your share of fault and maximizes your potential recovery.
Don't let the fear of partial fault keep you from seeking the help you deserve. Contact us today for a free consultation. We will review your case and explain your legal options.
