Las Vegas Auto Accident Attorney

Auto accidents are a leading cause of death and serious injury every year in the United States. In fact, according to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) there were an estimated 5,811,000 auto accidents in 2008, in which 37,261 were killed and 2,346,000 were injured.

In auto accident lawsuits, the case is usually against the negligent driver - the driver who caused the accident. Auto accident lawsuits are typically brought against the negligent driver in order to collect compensation for injuries sustained in the accident. The person injured in the accident has to prove that injuries were caused by the accident and by the driver's negligence.

Although millions of people are injured every year in auto accidents many people choose to forgo treatment for their injuries, because either they don't have insurance or they believe that they simply can't afford treatment. However, it's important to understand that if the other driver is responsible for the accident, and they are insured, many doctor's will agree to treat the injured party even if they don't have insurance, with the understanding and agreement that the doctor will collect their fees from the negligent party's insurance company. This is also referred to as the Doctor 'working on a lien'. (As the doctor will take a lien against any potential settlement from the injured party).
