What to Do After a Reno Auto Accident

01

Call 911 Immediately

Contact emergency services from the scene. A police report from the Reno Police Department or Washoe County Sheriff documents the collision and creates an official record.

02

Photograph Everything

Capture damage to all vehicles, skid marks, traffic signals, and road conditions. Intersections along Virginia Street, McCarran Boulevard, and I-80 on ramps are common accident locations in Reno.

03

Visit a Doctor Promptly

Go to Renown Regional Medical Center, Saint Mary’s Regional Medical Center, or your primary care provider within 24 hours. Delayed treatment can weaken your claim under Nevada law.

04

Talk to a Lawyer Before Insurers

Insurance adjusters may contact you quickly. Let Phoong Law handle negotiations so your rights are protected from the start.

Auto Accidents in Reno

Reno sits at the crossroads of I-80 and US-395, two major corridors that carry heavy commuter and freight traffic through the Truckee Meadows. Congestion along McCarran Boulevard, the I-80 and I-580 interchange, and through downtown Reno contributes to frequent collisions throughout the metro area.

City streets like Virginia Street, South Virginia Street, Kietzke Lane, Plumb Lane, and Oddie Boulevard see regular accidents involving distracted drivers, speeding, and failure to yield. Nevada follows a modified comparative negligence system, meaning you can recover compensation as long as you are not more than 50 percent at fault. Phoong Law helps Reno accident victims pursue full and fair recovery.

What Your Reno Auto Accident Case Could Be Worth

Nevada law entitles accident victims to compensation for medical expenses, lost income, property damage, and pain and suffering. Cases involving severe injuries on Reno freeways or collisions caused by commercial vehicles may carry higher value due to the severity of harm and available insurance coverage.

Medical Expenses

Medical Bills & Future Care

Emergency room visits at Renown Regional or Saint Mary’s, surgeries, rehabilitation, and ongoing care related to the accident.

Lost Wages

Lost Wages & Earning Power

Income lost during recovery, including reduced earning capacity if your injuries prevent you from returning to your previous occupation.

Pain and Suffering

Pain & Suffering

Compensation for physical pain, emotional distress, anxiety, and diminished quality of life caused by the accident.

Property Damage

Property Damage

Repair or replacement of your vehicle and any personal belongings damaged in the collision.

Types of Auto Accidents in Reno

No two accidents are the same. Whether your collision happened on I-80 or at a city intersection, we tailor our approach to match your specific circumstances.

Rear End Collisions

Rear-End Collisions

Common in stop and go traffic on I-80, McCarran Boulevard, and South Virginia Street, often causing whiplash and soft tissue injuries.

Freeway Accidents

Head-On Collisions

High speed collisions on I-80, I-580, and US-395 frequently cause serious injuries due to speed and traffic volume.

Intersection Crashes

T-Bone & Intersection Crashes

Red light violations and failure to yield at busy Reno intersections like Virginia and Plumb or McCarran and Kietzke.

Hit and Run

Hit-and-Run Accidents

Reno sees a significant number of hit and run incidents. We help victims pursue claims through uninsured motorist coverage.

Winter Weather Crashes

Rideshare Accidents

Snow, ice, and reduced visibility during Reno winters cause spinouts and multi vehicle accidents on I-80 and mountain passes.

Chain reaction crashes during commute hours on I-80 through Reno and Sparks, especially during winter storms.

Common Questions After a Reno Auto Accident

How long do I have to file an auto accident claim in Reno?

Nevada’s statute of limitations gives you two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Acting quickly helps preserve critical evidence.

What if I was partially at fault for the accident?

Nevada follows modified comparative negligence. You can still recover compensation as long as you are not more than 50 percent at fault. Your award is reduced by your percentage of fault.

Should I talk to the other driver's insurance company?

No. Insurance adjusters work to minimize what they pay. Let Phoong Law handle all communications with insurance companies to protect your claim.

How much does it cost to hire Phoong Law?

Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay no attorney fees unless we recover compensation for you. Consultations are always free.

What if the other driver was uninsured?

You may still be able to recover compensation through your own uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage. We help Reno clients navigate these claims.

How long does an auto accident case take to resolve?

Every case is different. Some settle within a few months, while others involving severe injuries or disputed liability may take longer. We keep you informed at every stage.

Don’t Wait. Evidence Fades. Witnesses Forget.

Every day that passes makes your case harder to prove. Get your free, no-obligation case review right now and find out what your claim is really worth.
