Few experiences are as frightening as being involved in a car accident, and when it happens, having a trusted Las Vegas auto accident lawyer by your side is crucial. Imagine driving through sunny Las Vegas, feeling optimistic about the day. You packed a healthy lunch, left the house early, and are cruising with the flow of traffic at the speed limit. As you approach an intersection with a green light, everything feels calm.

Suddenly, you hear the screeching of tires. A flash of blue appears in your peripheral vision, and before you can react, a deafening crash disrupts the moment. Metal crunches, glass shatters, and the force of the impact sends your car spinning uncontrollably across the intersection.

When the unexpected happens, an experienced Las Vegas auto accident lawyer can help you handle the aftermath—from navigating insurance claims to fighting for the compensation you deserve.

Your heart is racing, your head and neck hurt, your ears are ringing, and it smells like something is burning (which turns out to be due to the airbags). A witness runs over and asks, “Are you okay? That driver in the blue Ford ran the red light!” You step out of the car and realize you have no broken bones or major lacerations, so you respond, “I’m okay.” The witness breathes a sigh of relief and walks away without providing any contact information. You begin assessing the damage to your car when the driver of the blue Ford approaches you and exclaims, “You ran the red light!” You turn to find the witness, but the witness has already left.

A million thoughts run through your mind. “I need to call the police, but when they arrive, how do I prove I was not at fault?” “Do I need to go to a hospital to get checked out?” “Who is going to pay for my medical bills?” “What if I really hurt my head or my neck?” “Who is going to pay for my car?” “How am I going to pay my bills if I have to miss time from work?” “How is this going to affect my family?” “Should I call my insurance company?” “Should I call a lawyer?”

After the police arrive and do a report, and after you get checked out at the hospital, you decide it is best to contact a lawyer. You remember seeing three different billboards for three different personal injury law firms on your route to work. You also remember hearing radio jingles from two other personal injury law firms in the last week. You do a Google search, and a multitude of different law firms populate. How do you know which accident lawyer to choose?

Common Causes of Auto Accidents

Auto accidents can happen for many reasons, often due to driver mistakes, weather conditions, or mechanical failures. At Friedman Injury Law, we know how frustrating it can be to go through the aftermath of a car crash. Below, we break down some of the most common causes we encounter when helping injured clients seek compensation.

Distracted Driving

Distracted driving is one of the leading causes of auto accidents. Texting, eating, talking on the phone, adjusting the GPS, or even talking to passengers can take your attention off the road. When a driver is distracted, they may fail to notice changes in traffic patterns, stop signs, or vehicles slowing ahead.

Speeding and Reckless Driving

Driving above the speed limit or making aggressive maneuvers significantly increases the likelihood of an accident. Speeding reduces a driver’s ability to react quickly to sudden stops or changes on the road. Reckless driving, including weaving in and out of traffic or tailgating, puts everyone at risk.

Driving Under the Influence

Impaired driving, whether due to alcohol or drugs, slows reaction time and impairs judgment. Even small amounts of alcohol can affect a driver’s focus and coordination, leading to dangerous crashes.

Poor Weather Conditions

Rain, fog, and high winds can reduce visibility and make roads slippery. Drivers who don’t adjust their speed or increase their following distance in bad weather conditions are more likely to cause accidents.

Mechanical Failures

We’ve seen accidents caused by faulty brakes, blown tires, and steering system failures. Regular maintenance and inspections can help catch these problems early.

Driver Fatigue

Drowsy driving can be just as dangerous as driving under the influence. Tired drivers have slower reaction times and may even fall asleep behind the wheel.
