Will I have to pay upfront to work with a premises liability lawyer?At our firm, we work on a contingency fee basis. This means, you pay nothing upfront until you actually receive compensation. We collect a portion of your total compensation, so you can move forward without worrying about money to hold a negligent property owner accountable.

Our attorneys offer you a realistic timeline as part of your initial case review.
What if I was partially at fault for my accident — can I still recover?Nevada uses a comparative negligence standard. This means, you can bring a claim as long as your share of fault does not exceed 50%. The amount you recover is lowered by the degree to which you contributed.
