What Is the Slip and Fall Law in Nevada?
In Nevada, if a person slips, falls, and gets hurt on someone else’s property, and if the property owner’s actions caused or mostly contributed to the incident, the injured person can demand damages from the property owner. The injured person can file a claim through the owner’s insurance or a lawsuit directly against the owner.
However, the injured person must build a case first. They’ll also have to prevent the owner and their insurance company from diminishing the case and the person’s damages, or they’ll have to persuade a judge to compensate them fairly. All of this can be really difficult for a claimant to do themselves.
