When Loss Becomes Unimaginable
Losing a loved one due to someone else's negligence is devastating. While no amount of compensation can bring them back, a wrongful death claim can provide financial security for your family and hold the responsible party accountable. The financial burden of losing a breadwinner, combined with medical and funeral expenses, can compound the emotional trauma. You need attorneys who approach these cases with compassion while aggressively pursuing the compensation your family deserves.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who can file a wrongful death claim in Nevada?
In Nevada, wrongful death claims can be filed by the surviving spouse, children, or parents of the deceased. If there are no surviving family members in these categories, the personal representative of the estate may file on behalf of the estate's beneficiaries.
What damages are available in a wrongful death case?
Damages can include loss of financial support and future earnings, loss of companionship and guidance, medical and funeral expenses, and pain and suffering of the deceased before death.
How long do I have to file a wrongful death claim?
Nevada's statute of limitations for wrongful death claims is generally two years from the date of death. However, certain circumstances can affect this timeline, so it's important to consult with an attorney promptly.
Can I file a wrongful death claim if there are criminal charges?
Yes. Criminal charges and civil wrongful death claims are separate. A criminal conviction can strengthen your civil case, but you can pursue a wrongful death claim regardless of whether criminal charges are filed.
How long do wrongful death cases take?
Wrongful death cases typically take 12-24 months to resolve, depending on complexity, the number of parties involved, and whether the case goes to trial. We work efficiently while ensuring thorough case preparation.
