The Statute of Limitations for Car Accident Claims in Nevada
If you’ve been injured in a Nevada car accident, time is not on your side. Under Nevada law, you only have two years from the date of the crash to file a personal injury claim. This legal deadline is known as the statute of limitations, and missing it can completely destroy your right to recover compensation – no matter how strong your case is.
At Morales Injury Law, we’ve seen too many victims wait too long, only to learn they’re legally barred from seeking justice. That’s why More Money Morales, a former insurance company insider turned advocate for crash victims, urges you to act fast and protect your rights.
What Is the Statute of Limitations in Nevada?
In the context of a Nevada car accident, the statute of limitations is the amount of time you have to file a lawsuit after a crash. Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS 11.190) gives injury victims two years from the date of the accident to bring a personal injury claim against the at-fault party.
If you wait until two years and one day after the accident to file, the court will almost certainly dismiss your case – no exceptions, no second chances.
Why Timing Matters
Insurance companies love delay. The longer you wait, the more likely evidence disappears, witnesses forget what they saw, and medical records become harder to track. They’re counting on you to miss your window.
More Money Morales knows how insurance companies think – because he used to work for them. He knows their delay tactics, their tricks, and how they use the statute of limitations against you. That’s why Morales Injury Law moves fast to preserve your case and build a powerful claim for maximum compensation.
Exceptions to the Rule
There are a few rare exceptions to the standard two-year statute of limitations in a Nevada car accident case:
-
Minors: If the injured person is under 18, the two-year clock may not start ticking until they reach adulthood.
-
Delayed discovery: In rare cases, injuries that aren’t immediately apparent may extend the filing deadline.
-
Wrongful death: If a loved one dies due to accident injuries, the family typically has two years from the date of death, not the date of the crash.
Every situation is different, which is why it’s crucial to speak with an experienced car accident attorney right away. Waiting too long can mean permanently losing your chance to recover money for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.
