Nevada’s Modified Negligence Law
Nevada follows a modified negligence model that allows fault to be divided among multiple parties in an accident case. Under Nevada law, if you are determined to be more than 50% at fault, you cannot recover any compensation. If you are determined to be 50% or less at fault, you can recover compensation, but your percentage of fault will reduce it.
For example, if you have damages totaling $100,000 and you are found to be 50% at fault, you can still recover $50,000. But if you are determined to be 51% at fault, you recover nothing.
Insurance companies work hard to shift as much blame as possible to you so they can either avoid paying you anything or reduce how much they have to pay you.
Winchester Motorcycle Accident Claims Filing Deadlines
There are strict deadlines for filing a claim to recover compensation in personal injury cases. If you miss your deadline, you cannot recover any compensation.
In Nevada, most motorcycle accident claims must be filed within two years of the date of the accident. However, there are exceptions to the two-year filing deadline. You could have a much shorter filing time or an extended filing deadline. So, you must promptly consult an experienced Winchester motorcycle accident lawyer to ensure you know how long you have to file your claim.
