Kutner, we specialize in numerous personal injury practice areas.

Motorcycle Accidents
The majority of motorcycle accidents in Clark County occur at intersections. Many of these accidents can result in serious injuries and death. In October 2024, there were five motorcyclists killed in accidents within a 10-day period in the Las Vegas Valley. Among the victims was Michael Robins, a 44-year-old father, who died as a result of a car making a left turn in front of him and failing to yield the right-of-way.
Medical Malpractice
When a medical professional fails to provide a duty of care to their patients, they can be sued for medical malpractice. Doctors, nurses, and other healthcare providers have a duty to ensure the safety and well-being of their patients. They can be held accountable for their actions when they make medical errors, misdiagnoses, or surgical errors.
Premises Liability
Premises liability is a specific area of personal injury law. It involves accidents that occur on someone else’s property, including:
- Casino injuries
- Hotel injuries
- Event injuries
- Airport injuries
- Airbnb injuries
- Grocery store injuries
- Restaurant injuries
- Shopping center injuries
Property owners have a duty of care to ensure their premises are kept reasonably safe and that guests are warned about any potential hazards or dangers. When they fail to do this, they can be held accountable for injury-causing accidents on their property. Premises liability law also includes dog bites and slip-and-fall accidents.
Catastrophic Injury
Catastrophic injuries can occur from different types of accidents, including:
- Car crashes
- Motorcycle crashes
- Truck accidents
- Slips and falls
- Workplace accidents
These types of injuries have far-reaching effects on the person injured and their family. They can require ongoing medical treatment, in-home care, alterations in the home, and other medical care.
Additionally, when they are the primary earner in the home, their loss of income has a significant impact on their family. Our personal injury lawyers in Foothills, Henderson, help ensure you and your family receive sufficient compensation to take care of your medical expenses and financial needs today and in the future.
Wrongful Death
Fatal car crashes and other types of accidents can end in wrongful death. When someone dies as a result of another’s negligence, not only can they face criminal charges, but they can also be sued in civil court by the surviving family members for monetary compensation.
While no amount of money will bring your loved one back, our Foothills personal injury attorneys aggressively pursue maximum compensation to ensure your future is financially secure.
Slip And Fall
Slip-and-fall accidents can occur from:
- Broken and uneven sidewalks
- Wet flooring
- Ripped carpeting
- Damage stairs
- Loose handrails
- Broken and cracked flooring
- Lack of guardrails
- Defective equipment
Proving the property owner was responsible for your injuries can be challenging if you attempt to go at it alone. With help from our Foothills personal injury law firm, you have a much better chance of receiving a favorable settlement.
Workers’ Compensation
When you are injured on the job, whether the accident was your fault or not, your employer is required to cover your medical expenses through workers’ compensation insurance. When they refuse to file a claim or are making things difficult, like telling you that you still have to work, even when a doctor has told you not to, you can take legal action against them.
You may also be entitled to financial compensation for lost wages. Contact our Foothills personal injury lawyers for a free consultation now.

Personal Injury Frequently Asked Questions
What Types Of Damages Can You Seek?
You can seek economic and non-economic damages as part of your personal injury lawsuit, including:
- Current and future medical costs
- Current and future lost wages
- Rehab costs
- Counseling and therapy costs
- Pain and suffering
- Mental anguish
- Loss of companionship
- Loss of consortium
- Funeral costs
In some instances where the defendant’s behavior was grossly negligent, punitive damages may also be awarded. Punitive damages are meant to serve as a punishment and deter others from behaving similarly.
How Long Do You Have To File A Personal Injury Claim?
The statute of limitations for most personal injury claims in Nevada is two years from the date of the accident or when you first discovered your injuries. However, you should file as soon as possible after seeking medical treatment for your immediate injuries.
The longer you wait, the more difficult it becomes to obtain sufficient evidence to support your claim. Video camera footage can be deleted, and witnesses can become harder to locate. Additionally, certain types of injury claims may need to be filled much sooner, especially when a government employee, agency, or vehicle is involved.
Can You Still File A Personal Injury Claim If You Were Partially At Fault?
Nevada uses modified comparative negligence in personal injury lawsuits. If a plaintiff is less than 50% at fault, they can still file an injury claim against the defendant. However, their settlement amount is reduced by the percentage they are found to be at fault.
For example, you are found to have been 30% at fault in your car accident. We help you obtain a $30,000 settlement. Since you were 30% at fault, your settlement would be reduced by $9,000. So, you would receive a final settlement of $21,000.
