Truck Accident Info
Crashes involving big rigs happen in every state in the US, including Nevada. These types of accidents have multiple possible causes, but usually have two things in common. First, they often lead to severe injuries and death. Second - it’s not usually those in the truck who get hurt.
There are any number of reasons why a truck accident might occur - speeding, drunk driving, failure to adhere to work scheduling guidelines, improper handling, mechanical failure of truck parts, damaged or badly maintained roads, reckless driving by other vehicles... the list goes on and on.
The sheer size and bulk of a big rig means that the average passenger vehicle has minimal protection when they collide with one of these much larger vehicles. Even if a driver or passenger is wearing a seatbelt, there’s still a high probability that they’ll end up with traumatic injuries, including:
- Spinal cord, brain, or other severe head injuries
- Damage to internal organs
- Broken, fractured or dislocated bones
- Dismemberment, amputation, serious or permanent disfigurement
- Death
If your injuries were the fault of another person,, it’s only right that they take responsibility. But truck accident claims are often complicated. It’s quite likely that the at-fault driver’s attorney will argue that YOU were the one who caused the crash. That’s where Ruiz Law Firm can help you.
If you or a loved one have suffered injuries in a truck accident in the state of Nevada, it’s time to seek assistance. With their vast knowledge and experience, our team will help you put your life back on track - and win you the settlement you richly deserve.

Legal Questions? Talk to a top attorney
What kind of cases do you usually handle?
All of our lawyers are pros when it comes to winning all types of personal injury cases - truck accident cases, slips and falls, dog bites, wrongful deaths, nursing home injuries, and more besides.
Which locations in Nevada do you serve?
The Ruiz Law Firm are proud to serve clients from the Las Vegas and Henderson areas, as well as from around the whole state of Nevada. If you’ve been injured in a truck accident and are seeking justice, we’ll fight for what’s right. Call us today and a truck accident attorney Henderson NV can get started.
How much does a personal injury attorney actually cost?
Most truck accident injury law firms (including ours) charge clients a simple percentage of their total payout that comes from a settlement or court verdict. This is referred to as a ‘contingency fee’, meaning you only pay once your case is won by your truck accident lawyer Henderson NV.
Do I really need to hire a lawyer for my case?
If your truck accident case is small and there’s only a small payout involved, you could manage without a truck accident lawyer. But truck accident personal injury cases are rarely simple. You should also be aware that victims who represent themselves usually end up with lower payouts.
Do I have a case worth pursuing?
If you were injured because a truck driver was negligent or careless, you may well have a case. However, it's impossible to be sure unless you consult with an attorney. Personal injury cases are often complex, but a seasoned truck accident attorney will help you win the settlement you need.
What if I was hurt at work? Do I still need to hire a lawyer in those circumstances?
If you were injured when working, you’ll probably end up filing a workers comp case, not a personal injury case. Our team has a huge amount of experience winning these kinds of cases for clients throughout Nevada.
How long will my case take until it’s complete?
That depends. Every truck accident case is different, so the total time from hiring your lawyer to getting your check will vary. The more complex a case is, and the bigger the payout involved, the longer it usually takes.
Will I have to go to court as part of this process?
Possibly not. Our focus is achieving a just outcome for our clients, and we can often do that by negotiating a settlement out of court. If your truck accident personal injury case does end up in court, you can count on a The Ruiz Law Firm to fight for you the whole way.
Do I have to pay if I don’t win?
When you pick us for your case - NO, never. We operate on a contingency basis. This means we’ll only charge you once your truck accident case is done, and only if we win. You’ve got enough on your plate without worrying about legal fees.
How long do I have to file my case?
In Nevada, with few exceptions, you have just two years to file a truck accident personal injury case. That means you need to act fast - if you leave it too late, you’ll probably never recover any damages at all.
How much is my case worth?
Putting an exact worth on a truck accident case is difficult. It is possible to estimate how much you might collect, based on factors such as legal maximum payouts, the insurance policy of the at-fault party, their assets, and your insurance. Contact us today to learn how much your case could be worth.
What if I don’t feel hurt?
Even if you aren’t obviously hurt, you could still have a case. Right after your truck accident, the effects of adrenaline might mean that you don’t realize you’ve been injured. It may be more than a week until the full extent of your injuries become apparent.
Do you have a case?
The longer you wait, the lower the chance you have of getting compensation. Contact us NOW for a free case evaluation.
