Nevada Taxi Passenger Injury Lawyers
The majority of taxi cab rides are uneventful. However, the sheer volume of visitors to Las Vegas means that several people will be hurt in moderate to severe taxi accidents each year. When this happens, it is best to have an experienced trial lawyer on your side.
The Las Vegas taxi cab accident lawyers of Oronoz Ericsson know that not all taxis reach their destination safely. Las Vegas Blvd is a bustling street with thousands of cars and pedestrians at all hours of the day and night. A reckless taxi driver may be the cause of an accident that injures the passengers that he or she is carrying. Many passengers do not buckle up, since they feel the short trip doesn't require a seat belt. In some cases, the taxis do not have seat belts available, or they are broken.
We Represent Many Out-of-State Clients Each Year
The injuries that a person receives from being a passenger in a cab can be quite severe. Most cabs have a barrier between the driver and the passenger that can cause substantial damage. There may even be pamphlet racks or a video screen that is not protected properly. Even a low-speed accident could cause whiplash or head injury due to the conditions present inside the taxi. An experienced trial attorney can fight to get you reimbursed for your medical expenses, pain and suffering, and ongoing care.
Pedestrian Accidents
Las Vegas, Nevada, is a haven for tourists. At any time, day or night, the streets are packed with pedestrians. With a driver trying to get to a passenger's destination as quickly as possible with the financial motivation of picking up another fare sooner rather than later, accidents are inevitable. Drivers hit people in crosswalks, bicycle riders or individuals stepping into the street to avoid clusters on the sidewalks. If you were injured in an accident involving a taxi while walking in Las Vegas, we encourage you to contact our offices immediately.
