The Janda Law Firm offers legal representation in a range of cases, including:

 

  • Medical Malpractice Defense: Medical malpractice claims are an unfortunate reality for doctors, healthcare groups and hospitals in the United States. Patients often lay poor outcomes at their health care provider’s feet, even when negligence was not a factor.
  • Brain Injuries: TBI or traumatic brain injuries can lead to lifelong consequences, as serious as a person left in a vegetative state. The injury can be mild, moderate, or severe, and come with both physical and cognitive impairments.
  • Car Accidents: The injuries sustained in a vehicle accident can permanently impact your ability to earn a living, enjoy life, and care for your family. The result of an accident can be long-term, from broken bones to disfigurement, loss of limb, internal damage, or brain or spinal cord damage. 2017 was the deadliest year in a decade in Las Vegas, with 331 fatalities, as reported by the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
  • Truck Accidents: The Las Vegas area requires constant deliveries of food and products in commercial trucks entering the area on the I-15, I-515, the 215 Beltway, US 93, and Highway 11, as well as on busy city streets. Big rigs, when fully loaded, weigh up to 80,000 lbs. The driver and passengers in a regular vehicle are often seriously or fatally injured in a collision.
  • Motorcycle Accidents: The lack of protection provided by a motorcycle, other than clothing and a helmet, leaves riders at high risk of suffering a very serious injury, catastrophic injury, or fatal injury if hit by a negligent, drunk, or reckless driver.
  • Boat Accidents: Boating accidents in the Las Vegas area are often the result of inexperienced boaters in combination with alcohol consumption. Unfortunately, the injuries sustained in a water-related are often life-changing or fatal. Brain damage resulting from oxygen deprivation while submerged can leave an adult or child permanently impaired.
  • Pedestrian Accidents: Las Vegas has high numbers of pedestrians – and staggering numbers of serious or fatal pedestrian accidents. The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports a recent year was the deadliest ever, with 78 pedestrians fatally struck by vehicles.
  • Premises Liability: An injury sustained while visiting the premises of another party may allow you to file an injury claim to recover compensation for all damages.
  • Birth Injuries: When the birthing process goes wrong, it may be the result of a medical error or medical malpractice. At The Janda Law Firm, our physician-attorney offers professional support to parents facing this tragedy.
  • Wrongful death: The sudden loss of life resulting from an act of negligence can devastate a family. It is imperative that you engage legal representation to help you seek justice and full compensation.
  • Catastrophic injury: A catastrophic injury is defined as a severe spinal cord or brain injury, or skull and spinal fractures.
  • Nursing Home Abuse: Cases of nursing home abuse have reached staggering numbers. If your loved one has been injured, neglected, or died while under the care of a nursing home and you suspect abuse, it is critical that you seek legal help immediately.
  • Medical Device Malfunctions: Medical devices can fail, such as knee or hip implants, surgical mesh, or another device. To recover compensation requires extensive medical knowledge along with legal knowledge to resolve these cases professionally.
  • Dangerous Drugs: A drug prescribed to treat a health condition may have hidden side effects that are only discovered later. If you or a loved one suffered serious side effects from a dangerous medication, seek legal help at once.
  • DUI Accidents: Las Vegas is known as a party town, with tourists from around the world visiting every day of the year – often consuming an excess of alcohol. DUI accidents can leave an innocent person struggling to stay alive, requiring extensive medical treatment, permanently impaired, or fatally injured.
  • Distracted Driving: Texting, talking on the phone, adjusting in-vehicle systems, or just driving without focusing on the road ahead is the cause of many serious or fatal accidents in Las Vegas.
  • Head-On Collisions: The deadliest type of vehicle accident, a head-on collision often leads to severe head, brain, and spinal cord injuries, and long-term impairments. Contact The Janda Law Firm for immediate assistance.
  • Spinal Injury: Spinal cord injuries are some of the most difficult to successfully treat. Many people who suffer such an injury are impaired, unable to earn a living, and facing a lifetime of challenges. The compensation recovered must reflect the extent of the injuries, financially, personally, and emotionally.
  • Construction Accidents: The building boom on the Strip has provided steady work for many construction professionals – in the past, a construction worker died every six weeks due to safety violations and a cozy relationship between safety regulators and builders, as reported by the Las Vegas Sun. While the scene has improved, construction workers are injured at a higher rate than in any other industry.
  • Insurance Bad Faith: When an insurance company fails to act in good faith and pay compensation to an injured person, it is time to take legal action, with the help of a lawyer who is dedicated to you and your case – The Janda Law Firm.
  • Amputation Injuries: An amputation can occur in an auto accident, construction accident, motorcycle accident, pedestrian accident, or cycling accident. The loss of a limb is a life-altering injury. If another party was at fault, our attorney at The Janda Law Firm will pursue fair and full compensation.
  • Real Estate Law: A real estate attorney can help you document and review property transactions, resolve title and environmental issues and defend your interests in court. At The Janda Law Firm, we have a deep understanding of the complex property and real estate laws in Nevada and are able to guide you through any legal issue involving real estate.
