Injured in a Speeding Accident?

Speeding is one of the most dangerous driving behaviors on Nevada’s roads. In Henderson, it contributes to severe crashes on major routes like I-215, Boulder Highway, and Lake Mead Parkway. A driver traveling just a few miles over the limit has less time to react, a greater stopping distance, and an increased chance of causing catastrophic injuries.

If you or a loved one were hurt because another driver chose to ignore the speed limit, you deserve accountability and financial recovery. At Cogburn Davidson, we have more than 40 years of combined experience fighting for injured Nevadans. Our speeding accident lawyers in Henderson have recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for clients and are ready to put our knowledge and resources to work for you.

How Our Henderson Speeding Accident Attorneys Can Help

After a crash, insurance companies often minimize payouts or shift blame onto the injured party. Our Henderson car accident lawyers know how to challenge these tactics. When you choose us, we will:

  • Investigate the accident and secure evidence such as police reports, witness testimony, and traffic camera footage
  • Work with accident reconstruction experts to show how speeding caused the collision
  • Coordinate with your doctors to document the full extent of your injuries
  • Calculate the total value of your losses, including future costs
  • Handle all communication and negotiations with the insurance company
  • File a lawsuit and advocate for you in court if necessary

We take on the legal battle so you can focus on healing.

What Is My Henderson Speeding Accident Case Worth?

Every case is unique, but several factors influence the value of a claim, including:

  • Severity and type of injuries
  • Length of recovery and whether you can return to work
  • Medical expenses, both current and projected
  • Impact on your earning capacity
  • Property damage and out-of-pocket costs
  • Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
  • Strength of available evidence

Our attorneys provide personalized case evaluations to help you understand what your claim may be worth and fight for maximum compensation.

Types of Damages Available

Nevada law allows victims of speeding accidents to pursue both economic and non-economic damages.

Economic Damages Include

  • Medical bills and rehabilitation costs
  • Lost wages during recovery
  • Reduced future earning capacity
  • Property damage and vehicle repairs
  • Necessary medical equipment or home modifications

Non-Economic Damages Include

  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Loss of companionship or consortium

In cases where the at-fault driver’s conduct shows reckless disregard for safety, courts may also award punitive damages to punish and deter similar behavior.

Injuries Commonly Caused by Speeding Accidents

The force of a speeding crash often leaves victims with life-altering injuries, such as:

  • Traumatic brain injuries and concussions
  • Spinal cord damage and paralysis
  • Broken bones and fractures
  • Whiplash and soft tissue injuries
  • Internal bleeding and organ damage
  • Severe lacerations and burns
  • Wrongful death

These injuries often require extensive medical treatment and can affect every aspect of your life. Our team is committed to pursuing compensation that reflects both immediate and long-term needs.

What If I Am Partly At Fault?

Nevada follows a modified comparative negligence system. You can still recover compensation if you are 50% or less at fault, but your award will be reduced in proportion to your share of responsibility. If you are found 51% or more at fault, you cannot recover damages. Our attorneys work to challenge unfair blame-shifting and protect your right to full compensation.

If you haven’t reached out yet to Cogburn Davison I highly recommend you do! I can’t even begin to explain what great customer service I received from when first walking in the door and having the receptionist be so nice and friendly up until my case settled! The attorney Hunter S. Davidson and his paralegal Jessica Mejia were not only friendly and compassionate but they made sure me and my family understood every step of this lawsuit! My father was neglected in a nursing home and I couldn’t find an attorney in Vegas who specialized in these type of cases. Once my friend recommended me to Cogburn Davidson and I saw their exceptional customer service I knew I was in the right place. They were able to get my father and our family the justice he deserved! Don’t hesitate and call Cogburn Davidson, you won’t regret it!

  • Drivers rushing or running late
  • Aggressive driving and road rage

How Long Do I Have to File a Lawsuit?

In Nevada, most personal injury lawsuits must be filed within two years of the date of the accident. Missing this deadline usually means losing your right to compensation. Prompt legal action also helps preserve critical evidence.
