Car Accidents
Las Vegas drivers have fender benders every day. It’s just a normal part of living and driving in a busy city. While minor accidents cause more of a hassle than anything else, some accidents are much more serious. They may leave you with a serious injury, a mountain of medical bills, and the loss of your ability to earn a living. This type of accident can turn your life upside down. You can’t do activities that you once enjoyed, your relationships suffer, and you might lose your job. That’s when you need to call the Las Vegas personal injury lawyers at Bay Law Accident Attorneys to help you get maximum compensation.
Truck Accidents
Some of the most devastating accidents that happen in Las Vegas are those involving large trucks. As the city continues to grow and expand, the number of semis and 18-wheelers is increasing to move goods in and out. When a large truck crashes into a passenger vehicle, there is a much greater potential to cause catastrophic injuries than accidents between two passenger vehicles. Often, occupants in the smaller vehicle are at a greater risk of suffering severe injuries or death.
Proving the cause of a truck accident and determining liability can be challenging. If you were injured in a Las Vegas truck accident, a Las Vegas personal injury lawyer from Bay Law Accident Attorneys can help. Get the compensation you deserve.
Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcyclists love the feeling of freedom they get from riding along the strip or the rambling open roads of Las Vegas. Too often, they learn too late that drivers of other vehicles on the road don’t always pay attention to bikers. Many of the roads and intersections in and around the city aren’t safe for motorcycles. Traffic congestion only adds to the risks of accidents, catastrophic injuries, and worse.
A personal injury attorney at Bay Law Accident Attorneys understands motorcycle wrecks. We know that motorcyclists often suffer from debilitating injuries, property loss, and the build-up of medical bills. If you were hurt in a motorcycle accident or you lost a loved one because of someone else’s negligence, contact Bay Law Accident Attorneys for a free consultation.
Uber Accidents
Rideshare companies like Uber offer locals and tourists in Las Vegas a convenient way to get around. Like any car crash, Uber accidents can have severe catastrophic consequences. Due to Uber’s complex liability system, determining who is liable for your injuries and other damages is challenging. A Las Vegas personal injury attorney can help you determine which parties are liable and how you should proceed to get compensation.
The personal injury lawyers at Bay Law Accident Attorneys have handled many Uber accidents and gotten large settlements for our clients. Contact us today for a free evaluation of your case.
Lyft Accidents
Since its first ride in Nevada’s busiest city, Lyft has expanded its reach, offering services in Las Vegas, Henderson, and the Southern region of Nevada. There is a lot at stake for anyone in a Lyft accident due to the $1 million liability coverage offered by the rideshare company. The problem is that it depends on which phase of work the Lyft driver is in during the accident and whether the Lyft policy applies. If the driver is not “on the clock,” then their personal policy is their primary coverage.
If you are injured in a Lyft accident, you deserve compensation for your injuries and other damages. A Las Vegas personal injury lawyer from Bay Law Accident Attorneys can help determine liability for your injuries and help you get the compensation you need.
Pedestrian Accidents
Las Vegas is plagued by pedestrian accidents, and the number continues to rise. Any accident that involves a vehicle hitting a person with no protection from the impact is likely to result in catastrophic injuries. Some of the most common causes of vehicle and pedestrian accidents are due to drivers who are speeding, driving distracted, or driving while intoxicated. Sometimes, distracted pedestrians also contribute to the accident.
If you or a loved one was injured in a vehicle-pedestrian crash, contact Bay Law Accident Attorneys right away. You need a personal injury lawyer who understands what you are going through.
Dog Bites
Sixty-nine million households in the US own at least one dog. Dogs are a part of our lives and members of our families. Unfortunately, dog bites are also a common occurrence in Las Vegas, and sometimes, the resulting injuries are serious.
A dog bite is one of the most traumatic injuries you can experience. When you are injured by a dangerous or vicious dog due to the dog owner’s negligence, you deserve compensation to pay your medical bills. A personal injury attorney at Bay Law Accident Attorneys can help you understand Nevada’s one-bite rule and how to get the recovery you need after suffering a dog bite.
Slip and Fall Accidents
If you are injured in a slip and fall accident on residential or business property, you might be able to recover damages. Slip and falls are a type of premises liability case that is based on the negligence of the property owner.
Premises liability is the legal doctrine that owners or managers of a property must keep it in a reasonably safe condition and warn others if there are dangers that aren’t obvious. Under Nevada’s comparative negligence law, you can still receive compensation if you were partly responsible for your injury.
A Las Vegas personal injury lawyer will evaluate the evidence in your case and determine who was liable for your fall. Reach out to Bay Law Accident Attorneys to get the maximum compensation for your slip and fall case.
Wrongful Death
Sometimes, personal injuries are so severe that they result in a person’s death. Losing a loved one to wrongful death is a devastating experience. Someone else’s irresponsibility caused you to lose someone you loved.
Any personal injury can result in wrongful death. Losing a loved one to a traumatic event is unexpected and overwhelming. If they were a primary earner in your household, the financial burden only adds to your grief.
You may be able to file a wrongful death claim to get compensation for the pain, suffering, and loss of income that resulted from the person’s death. Contact Bay Law Accident Attorneys about filing a wrongful death claim to help secure your future and get justice for your loved one.
Bicycle Accidents
Bicycles are a common sight in Southern Nevada, from the busy streets of the Las Vegas strip to the suburbs in Henderson. Bicycle accidents are also common, often resulting in serious injuries. If you’ve been injured in a bicycle accident that required emergency transportation and treatment and/or hospitalization or surgery, Bay Law Accident Attorneys can help you get the compensation you deserve.

Drunk Driving Accidents
Las Vegas ranks number one for DUIs with 1,986 arrests for every 100,000 residents. These statistics increase your odds of being injured by a drunk driver. Drunk driving accidents can involve two vehicles or a vehicle and pedestrian, motorcycle, or bicycle. You might even be injured when a drunk driver crashes into your Uber or Lyft.
DUI accidents can cause serious injuries such as back and head injuries, organ damage, and even death. After a drunk driving accident, you can sue the liable party and get compensation for your injuries. When you retain Bay Law Accident Attorneys as your Las Vegas personal injury attorney, you get the benefit of our years of experience and dedication to get you the recovery you need quickly.
Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice or “professional negligence” is when a healthcare professional causes an injury or death to a patient through negligence. These injuries are, at best, life-changing. At worst, they can prevent you from ever working or enjoying the activities you love again.
If you are injured because of a medical professional’s negligence, you need to hold them responsible for the harm they caused you. At Bay Law Accident Attorneys, our personal injury attorneys can answer all of your questions and address your concerns.
Spinal Cord Injuries
People who receive spinal cord injuries in Las Vegas may be eligible to file a negligence lawsuit and receive compensation. Spinal cord and back injuries are common in work injuries, medical malpractice, slip and falls, and car crashes. Injuries to the spinal cord can cause life-altering disabilities, including partial or total paralysis. Too often, the person who caused your injury isn’t willing to do the right thing.
At Bay Law Accident Attorneys, we know how to gather evidence to prove your case. We know how to negotiate with insurance companies and get the settlement you need to pay your medical bills. When you trust our Las Vegas injury lawyers with your financial future, we will work quickly to get the maximum settlement amount.
Brain Injuries
Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) can occur from impacts in automobile accidents, falls, or during sports. TBIs often have unpredictable and devastating effects that get worse when they aren’t treated right away. You might have swelling or bleeding of the brain that causes fatal results hours or days after the trauma occurred.
Brain injuries might be due to someone else’s negligence. If you received a brain injury in Las Vegas due to negligent behavior, you might be able to hold the guilty party liable. After a brain injury, contact the personal injury attorneys at Bay Law Accident Attorneys. We handle many types of personal injuries, including those resulting in brain injuries.
Product Defects
What should you do if you were injured when a product was defective or malfunctioned? Nevada recognizes four common theories of product liability, including:
- Breach of warranty
- Strict liability
- Negligence
Intentional Misrepresentation of Fraud
If you are a victim of a product defect, you may be able to bring liability claims against multiple parties, including the manufacturer, a distributor, or the seller. In order to collect financial compensation, you must meet the burden of proof for that specific type of liability claim. Schedule a free consultation with a personal injury attorney at Bay Law Accident Attorneys for an evaluation of your case.
