Different types of Las Vegas Personal Injury Cases

In looking for a Las Vegas Personal Injury Lawyer, you need to know the difference between similar types of lawyers. If you are injured at work, you will need two different lawyers, one for your Las Vegas Personal Injury case and the second for your employment related case. In the employment related case, you will need, what we call in the legal field, a "Worker's Compensation" attorney. The reason for that, is because different laws and procedures govern employment related cases. But, since your case has two parts, you need two lawyers. Although some Las Vegas Lawyers do both areas of law, I recommend using two different lawyers for your case, so you can have an expert in each field.

The second type of case that is typically confused with personal injury cases in the general legal sense is when you are injured as a result of the actions of your doctor. Those types of cases are referred to in what I like to call the "legal world" (as opposed to the "real world", as "Medical Malpractice" cases. In that instance you only need one Las Vegas attorney, one whose specialty is in medical malpractice. Although some Las Vegas Lawyers do both personal injury and medical malpractice, I again recommend hiring a Las Vegas Attorney who specializes in medical malpractice, if you were injured as a result of your doctor's actions.

In the end, you want the best possible Las Vegas Personal Injury Attorney for your case. You would not go to the same doctor to deliver a baby and do brain surgery! So, select different Las Vegas lawyers, for your particular needs.

Research also shows that impairment increases significantly when marijuana use is combined with alcohol. Studies have found that many drivers test positive for alcohol and THC, making it clear that drinking and drugged driving are often linked behaviors.” All 50 states and the District of Columbia have laws ...
