Proving Liability

After a pedestrian accident, you must prove that a driver’s negligence caused your injuries and losses. In Nevada, this means clearly showing fault and connecting the crash to your damages.

Insurance companies often try to deny responsibility or shift blame onto the pedestrian. To recover compensation, your case must clearly establish the core elements of liability.

That process typically involves showing four key elements:

  • Duty of Care: Drivers must operate safely and watch for pedestrians in crosswalks, intersections, and roadways.
  • Breach of Duty: The driver acted negligently, such as speeding, distracted driving, or failing to yield.
  • Causation: The driver's actions directly caused your injuries.
  • Damages: You suffered losses, including medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.

Proving Liability

Proving liability is one of the most important steps in any personal injury claim. To hold someone legally responsible for your injuries, you must establish that their actions—or failure to act—directly caused your harm. 

That process typically involves showing four key elements:

  • Duty of Care: The other party had a legal responsibility: like a driver following traffic laws or a store keeping walkways safe.
  • Breach of Duty: They failed in that duty. Examples include distracted driving or ignoring known hazards.
  • Causation: Their actions directly caused your injuries.
  • Damages: You suffered harm: such as medical bills, lost income, or pain & suffering.
