Accidents are a top cause of injuries in Nevada, but these incidents can sometimes be so violent and traumatic that they lead to fatalities. Motor vehicle collisions are among the top causes of death in the US, and slip and falls also rank high when it comes to deadly accidents. Surviving family members are consumed by grief after losing a loved one, but the financial tolls are also tremendous. Even if you are aware that you have legal remedies under state law, taking action to enforce your rights can seem overwhelming during this difficult time.

At Cameron Law, we realize that exercising legal options cannot turn back time after someone close to you dies in an accident. However, pursuing a wrongful death action can provide financial support to help you and your family recover from a tragic loss. Please call our firm today to speak to a Paradise wrongful death lawyer. We can set up a free consultation to provide additional details, but an overview is also useful.

Summary of Nevada Wrongful Death Laws

In short, a wrongful death case is a personal injury matter, except that the victim was killed instead of merely being hurt. As such, you must first meet the requirements for a claim based upon negligence. They include presenting proof that the at-fault party breached the duty to exercise reasonable care when acting, and a showing that this misconduct was the direct cause of the fatal accident. A wrongful death claim is also your legal remedy if your loved one was killed through intentional conduct.

In addition to proving liability, you must also comply with Nevada’s wrongful death laws. Only the following individual have standing to sue:

  • The personal representative of the decedent’s estate, which is either the executor named in a will or an estate administrator appointed by a probate court;
  • The deceased’s surviving spouse;
  • Adult children of the victim;
  • Parents of the decedent, if there is no spouse or children; and,
  • Additional relatives.

How to Recover Compensation After a Fatal Accident

Like other personal injury cases, you will typically need to file a claim with the at-fault party’s insurance company. These matters often settle, but insurers are often unwilling to pay fairly because claims eat into their profits. You must initiate litigation in court if the insurance company denies your claim or makes a lowball counteroffer.

Our Paradise wrongful death attorneys at Cameron Law will meet the legal requirements to ensure you receive compensation for:

  • Funeral and burial expenses;
  • Costs related to treating the decedent’s injuries prior to death;
  • Lost income, future earning capacity, and financial contributions;
  • Losses related to education, guidance, love, support, and other contributions the deceased would have provided.
