Compensation Recoverable in Winchester Personal Injury Claims
In a successful Winchester personal injury claim, you can recover both economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages include current and future medical costs, lost wages, property damage, and other financial losses and expenses incurred due to your accident and injuries.
Non-economic damages are more challenging to prove but are often even more devastating than economic damages. They include pain and suffering, mental and emotional distress, loss of consortium, loss of enjoyment of life, and other intangible losses.
In rare cases, you may be awarded punitive damages in addition to economic and non-economic damages. However, Nevada law permits punitive damages only upon clear and convincing evidence that the defendant is guilty of malice, fraud, or oppression.
Statute of Limitations For Winchester Personal Injury Claims
A statute of limitations is a law that establishes a deadline for filing a claim to recover damages in a personal injury case. If you miss your filing deadline, you will not be able to recover any compensation, no matter how strong your claim is.
As outlined in NRS §11.190, most personal injury claims in Nevada have a two-year statute of limitations, meaning that you must file your claim within two years of the date of injury. However, there are some exceptions to the two-year deadline. In some cases, you may have much less time to act, and in others, you may have an extended deadline. You must promptly consult an experienced Winchester personal injury lawyer to determine your filing deadline.
Why You Should Hire a Winchester Personal Injury Lawyer
Insurance companies are in business to make a profit, and they do that by paying out as little as possible in claims. They work hard to deny, devalue, and delay your claim. You need an experienced Winchester personal injury lawyer to protect your rights and hold the insurance companies accountable for paying the full value of your claim.
Your chances of securing maximum compensation for your damages are much higher when an experienced Winchester personal injury lawyer represents you.
