What Is a Slip and Fall Case in Nevada?

They may be held financially responsible for the injuries.

Common hazardous conditions include:

Wet or slippery floors
Spills without warning signs
Uneven sidewalks or flooring
Poor lighting
Broken stairs or handrails
Loose carpeting or mats

Common Places Slip and Fall Accidents Occur

Slip and fall injuries are especially common in high-traffic areas such as:

Hotels and motels
Restaurants and bars
Grocery and retail stores
Apartment complexes
Parking lots and garages
Office buildings

Las Vegas properties see millions of visitors every year, which means property owners must be especially diligent about safety.

Nevada Slip and Fall Law Explained

Premises Liability in Nevada

Nevada law requires property owners to exercise reasonable care to prevent foreseeable injuries. This includes:

Regular inspections
Timely repairs
Adequate warnings of known hazards

Comparative Negligence (NRS 41.141)

Nevada follows a modified comparative negligence rule. This means:

You can recover compensation if you are 50% or less at fault
Your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault
If you are more than 50% at fault, you cannot recover damages

Statute of Limitations

In most slip and fall cases, Nevada law allows two (2) years from the date of injury to file a lawsuit. Missing this deadline can permanently bar your claim.

Injuries Commonly Caused by Slip and Falls

Slip and fall injuries can be severe and life-changing, including:

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
Concussions
Broken bones and fractures
Hip and knee injuries
Spinal cord injuries
Back and neck injuries
Soft tissue injuries

Medical bills, lost wages, and long-term treatment costs can quickly add up.

Compensation Available in a Slip and Fall Case

Slip and Fall Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Do I have a valid slip and fall case in Nevada?

You may have a case if your injury was caused by a dangerous condition the property owner knew about or should have known about and failed to fix or warn against.

What if there was a warning sign?

Warning signs can reduce liability, but they do not automatically eliminate it. The sign must be visible, timely, and adequate under the circumstances.

Can I still recover compensation if I was partially at fault?

Yes. Under Nevada’s comparative negligence law, you can recover damages as long as you were 50% or less at fault.

How long do slip and fall cases take?

Some cases settle within months, while others take longer if litigation is required. The timeline depends on injury severity, insurance disputes, and evidence.

Seek medical attention immediately
Report the incident to management or property owner
