Nerve Damage: The Invisible Injury That Can Change Your Life
Your nervous system controls everything in your body, from muscle movement and sensation to organ function. When your nerves cannot transmit signals, the consequences can be severe.
Nerve damage does not always have outward signs. However, you already know the profound impact it has on your physical abilities, your emotional well-being, and your overall quality of life.
Although pain is commonly associated with nerve damage, there are many other debilitating symptoms:
- Numbness or tingling: This can range from a mild pins-and-needles sensation to a complete loss of feeling.
- Muscle weakness or paralysis: When nerves that control muscles are damaged, it can lead to weakness, difficulty coordinating movements, and even paralysis.
- Loss of coordination and balance: Nerve damage can affect your body's ability to sense its position in space, leading to problems with balance and coordination.
- Changes in bowel or bladder function: Damage to certain nerves can cause incontinence, constipation, and similar issues.
- Acute pain: You might experience sharp pain that shoots down your arm or leg or a burning pain that runs along the affected nerve.
- Chronic pain: Damaged nerves can send constant pain signals to the brain, even when the injury appears to have healed.
Pain and other nerve damage symptoms can be incredibly debilitating and difficult to treat. Some long-term consequences of these symptoms include:
- Permanent disability: Lasting nerve impairment may affect your ability to work, perform daily tasks, and enjoy life to the fullest.
- Loss of independence: Severe nerve damage can limit your mobility and independence, requiring you to rely on others for assistance with daily tasks.
- Emotional distress: Coping with the physical limitations, pain, and uncertain potential for recovery can take a toll on your emotional well-being.
- Psychological effects: Chronic nerve pain may contribute to anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns.
A nerve damage settlement should include more than just your financial losses; it should also account for the effect of the injury on your personal life and overall well-being.
Common Causes of Nerve Injuries
Nerve damage is usually caused by a sudden impact or force that disrupts the delicate structure of nerve fibers. This impact or force can result from a wide range of incidents, but these are some of the most common.
Car Accidents
Too frequently, impaired and negligent drivers get behind the wheel on Las Vegas streets and highways, and collisions are common. The high speeds and forces involved in motor vehicle accidents may lead to whiplash, spinal cord injuries, severed nerves, and similar traumatic injuries.
Truck Accidents
Due to the sheer size and weight of commercial trucks, accidents involving these vehicles can result in catastrophic injuries, including severe nerve damage in the spine, limbs, and head.
Motorcycle Accidents
The sunny climate of Las Vegas makes it a popular city for motorcyclists, but these road users lack the protections of enclosed vehicles. They are highly vulnerable to nerve damage from road rash or direct impact injuries.
Slip and Fall Accidents
Residents and visitors can be injured in lively establishments like casinos and nightclubs — or in everyday places like supermarkets and gas stations. Falls, especially from heights or onto hard surfaces, can cause direct trauma to nerves. Additionally, bones fractured in these falls can compress or sever nearby nerves.
Pedestrian Accidents
A pedestrian is at a disadvantage in any collision with a motor vehicle, whether it happens on Fremont Street or in a quiet Las Vegas suburb. In 2022, Nevada was ranked the 13th most dangerous state for pedestrians. Impacts with motor vehicles can cause significant nerve damage to the legs, spine, and head.
Workplace Accidents
Many work environments in Las Vegas present hazards. Accidents at construction sites, tourist attractions, hotels, and even offices can lead to nerve damage. Falls from heights, being struck by objects, machinery accidents, and repetitive motion injuries can all damage nerves.
Medical Malpractice
Negligence during medical procedures can result in nerve damage. Errors can include severing a nerve during surgery, administering anesthesia improperly, or failing to diagnose or treat a condition that affects the nerves.
If you've experienced any degree of nerve damage due to someone else's negligence, seek legal guidance from a qualified Las Vegas nerve damage attorney.

Do You Have a Nerve Damage Claim?
To determine whether you have a valid nerve damage claim, we need to carefully review how your injury happened. Bring your story and any related documents to your free consultation, and our Las Vegas attorneys can help you understand your legal options.
When Negligence Leads to Nerve Damage
Most personal injury cases, including those involving nerve damage, hinge on the concept of "negligence." Negligence occurs when someone's careless or reckless actions (or their inaction) directly cause harm to another person.
To win your nerve damage claim, we will likely need to show that:
- The at-fault party owed you a duty of care.
- They breached that duty of care through their actions or inaction.
- Their breach of duty directly caused your nerve damage.
Our legal team at Cameron Law is experienced in proving negligence in a wide range of personal injury cases. We'll investigate the circumstances surrounding your injury, gather evidence to support your claim, and fight tirelessly to hold the negligent parties accountable for their actions.
Signs You May Need Legal Help
Symptoms of nerve damage may not appear immediately. If you’ve seen a medical provider for the following problems after an accident, you might have nerve damage:
- You sustained a blow to your head, neck, back, or spine.
- You have persistent numbness, tingling, or weakness in your arms or legs.
- You're experiencing chronic pain that hasn't responded to traditional medical treatment.
- You're having difficulty with balance, coordination, bladder control, or bowel control after an accident.
Contact an attorney as soon as you suspect you have a nerve damage claim. An early start helps us preserve evidence, gather witness statements, and build the strongest possible case on your behalf.

Frequently Asked Questions About Nerve Damage Claims
Can brain trauma cause nerve damage?
Brain trauma can lead to a wide range of long-term effects, including nerve damage, cognitive impairment, memory loss, and personality changes. A nerve damage attorney can help you build a persuasive argument that connects your brain injury to your nerve damage symptoms and fight for compensation to cover the costs of long-term care and rehabilitation.
What is the statute of limitations for filing a nerve damage claim in Nevada?
In Nevada, you generally have two years from the date of your injury to file a nerve damage lawsuit. However, there are exceptions to this rule. Contact a nerve damage attorney as soon as possible to ensure you don't miss this crucial deadline.
Can I still file a claim if I was partially at fault for the car accident that caused my nerve damage?
Nevada follows a comparative negligence rule, which means you can still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault for the accident. However, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault, and you cannot recover anything if you were more than 50% at fault.
How do you prove nerve damage in a personal injury claim?
To prove nerve damage, we might need medical evidence like nerve conduction studies, MRIs, and clinical notes. Your nerve damage attorney will also work with medical experts to establish a clear link between the accident and your symptoms. Proving the injury may require an expert witness who can interpret this evidence for a judge or jury.
