Nevada Texting While Driving Accident Lawyer

The courts take a very serious view of texting while driving violations and rightly so. In February 2014, a Supreme Court judge rejected the claim of accused Chad Belleville whose decision to give attention to his text message rather than the road turned the life of D.W. Flanders upside down. D.W. continues to be unable to walk, talk, or carry out his daily activities on his own. In August, in a similar case, a Bunnell resident won $4.3 million in compensation for the brain damage she suffered in a 2010 accident caused by texting while driving.  If you or your family member have been injured in a similar case, call in a Nevada texting while driving attorney from Ladah Law Firm right away. We can help you fight for rightful compensation.

Establishing The Driver’s Liability

Your Nevada car accident lawyer’s first priority will be to establish the driver’s liability in the accident. That is, your lawyer will attempt to prove beyond doubt that the driver was texting while he was driving his vehicle and that this texting distracted him to such an extent that he failed to pay attention to the road. If this is established, it becomes easier to win the compensation you are claiming from the negligent driver. Hire an expert Nevada car accident lawyer from Ladah Law Firm toget the best possible defense in such claims.

What Kind Of Compensation Can You Claim?

If you have sustained serious injuries in the accident caused by texting while driving, you may be forced to stay away from work for a few days. Your claim for compensation can include loss of wages incurred and loss of earning capacity as a result of such an accident apart from recovering the cost of your treatment. If the accident resulted in a fatality, you can recover cost of burial apart from the cost of medical care provided to the deceased. The kind of compensation you can claim in this way depends on your relationship with the deceased.

No amount of financial compensation will be enough for the loss of a loved one or ease the discomfort and pain of serious injuries sustained in an accident. However, filing a claim also deters the traffic violator from driving in an irresponsible and negligent manner in future, thus saving many others from similar fates.
