Nevada’s Statute of Limitations

In Nevada, you typically have two years to file personal injury and wrongful death lawsuits, according to NRS §11.190(4)(e). It may seem like you can wait a while to take action, but there is a lot of work to get done. It is best to file as soon as possible while evidence is fresh and you have the correct contact information of witnesses. You can be barred from filing if you do so past the deadline. You want a strong, compelling case, so it is wise to get started now. The sooner you begin work on your case, the sooner you may be able to collect a financial award for the damages you incurred.

Possible Liable Parties in a Truck Accident

There are a few parties that could be held responsible for the truck accident. They are:

The Truck Driver

The truck driver may have been distracted by texting, eating, or changing the radio station when they caused the accident. It is possible they were driving under the influence of alcohol or another substance or fell asleep at the wheel. According to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), truck drivers have driving limits, but sometimes they work longer to meet deadlines, which can be dangerous for the driver and other motorists.

The Trucking Company

The trucking company may be held directly liable for an employee’s misconduct due to vicarious liability. In addition, the company may have been cutting corners to save time and money, resulting in an accident. It can be difficult to prove an employer’s liability, but one of our lawyers can help. The trucking company likely has a strong legal team to represent them, but we can go up against them to pursue the compensation you deserve.

The Truck Manufacturer/Parts Manufacturer

If it is found that a defective part or system in the truck caused the accident and it was faulty from the start, the truck manufacturer may be held liable. By investigating the truck itself, we may be able to hold the truck or parts manufacturer accountable for their negligence.

Maintenance Company/Mechanic

If the employer’s maintenance company or a mechanic failed to fix one or more parts and these parts failed and caused an accident, we may be able to hold the company accountable.

Cargo Loading Company

If a cargo loading company improperly loaded the truck—maybe by failing to use enough tie-downs—and the truck crashed as a result, they may be the liable entity. A Winchester truck accident lawyer may be able to hold more than one party liable for the accident. We will handle all communication with the other side, including the insurers, defendant, and their legal representatives.
