Nevada Highway Patrol Accident Reports

Nevada Highway Patrol Accident Reports – If you are involved in a car accident in Las Vegas or anywhere in Nevada, the police accident report, formally called a Nevada traffic accident report, becomes important evidence in your claim. Insurance companies use police reports to determine fault in an accident. Additionally, if the investigating police officer is called to testify at a deposition or trial, he or she will likely refer to the accident report when testifying.

So it is important to know what is in the accident report and clarify if the information is incorrect. At Lasso Injury Law LLC, we can help you obtain, review, and amend your accident report to protect your rights. Contact us today for a free consultation with an Al Lasso attorney.
