We represent families in wrongful death cases involving:

  • Car, truck, and motorcycle accidents
  • Pedestrian and bicycle fatalities
  • DUI-related crashes
  • Defective product deaths
  • Medical malpractice
  • Nursing home abuse and neglect
  • Workplace accidents
  • Premises liability (slip and fall, inadequate security, etc.)
  • Fatal police or emergency vehicle accidents

What Is Wrongful Death Under Nevada Law?

Wrongful death occurs when someone dies due to the negligent, reckless, or intentional actions of another person or entity. In Nevada, surviving family members—such as spouses, children, parents, or personal representatives—can bring a legal claim for damages against the party responsible.

You may have a wrongful death claim if your loved one could have filed a personal injury lawsuit had they survived.

Types of Damages in Wrongful Death Cases

While no amount of money can replace your loss, a successful wrongful death claim can provide compensation for:

  • Funeral and burial expenses
  • Medical bills related to the final injury or illness
  • Loss of income and financial support
  • Loss of companionship, love, and guidance
  • Pain, suffering, and grief
  • Punitive damages (in cases of gross negligence or misconduct)

We work closely with economic experts, grief counselors, and medical professionals to assess the full impact of your loss and pursue every category of compensation available under Nevada law.

Who Can File a Wrongful Death Lawsuit in Nevada?

Nevada law (NRS 41.085) limits who can bring a wrongful death claim. Eligible parties include:

  • The decedent’s surviving spouse or domestic partner
  • Children of the deceased
  • Parents (if no spouse or children exist)
  • A personal representative of the estate (executor or administrator)

If multiple eligible family members exist, each may be entitled to a portion of the damages awarded.

We’ll walk you through who can file, what your rights are, and how the process works—step by step.

Common Wrongful Death Scenarios We Handle

Fatal Car & Truck Accidents
Speeding, distracted driving, reckless behavior, or intoxication behind the wheel can have deadly consequences. Whether the crash involved a commercial vehicle or a repeat DUI offender, we’ll pursue every liable party.

Medical Malpractice
If a doctor, hospital, or healthcare provider made a preventable error that resulted in your loved one’s death, we’ll uncover the truth and hold them accountable under Nevada’s medical malpractice laws.

Workplace Deaths
Construction accidents, falls, equipment failures, and unsafe working conditions often lead to fatal injuries. In addition to workers’ compensation death benefits, you may have a civil wrongful death claim against third parties.

Defective Products
From exploding batteries to faulty brakes, defective or dangerous products can cause sudden and unexpected deaths. We hold manufacturers, designers, and distributors accountable.

Premises Liability (Property Negligence)
If unsafe conditions—like poor lighting, lack of security, or dangerous structures—led to a fatal accident, we’ll pursue claims against property owners, landlords, or businesses that failed in their duty of care.

Police or Emergency Vehicle Fatalities
High-speed pursuits and negligent emergency response driving can result in deadly crashes. When a public agency or officer causes a preventable death, we challenge sovereign immunity defenses and fight for justice.
