Failure to Stop vs. Rolling Stop: Liability in Nevada Stop Sign Crashes

By Mainor Ellis Injury Lawyers |

You know what a full stop looks like. The car rocks back. The wheels stop turning. There’s that brief, boring pause before you go. That is not what happens at most Nevada stop signs.  What you actually see, especially around Las Vegas, is the “Nevada roll.” That’s a slow crawl through the intersection, a… Read More »

Hurt by a Product Bought Online? Jurisdiction and Amazon‑Related Issues in Nevada Cases

By Mainor Ellis Injury Lawyers |

You didn’t go to a shady back‑alley shop. You clicked “Buy Now.” You waited two days. A box showed up on your porch in Nevada with that familiar smile printed on the side. Maybe it was a space heater, a phone charger, a kids’ toy, a supplement, or a piece of exercise equipment. Then… Read More »

Casino Kitchen, Hotel Room, or Car Fire: Common Sources of Burn Injuries in Nevada

By Mainor Ellis Injury Lawyers |

Nevada sells two things better than almost anywhere else: heat and spectacle. Flaming cocktails. Open kitchens. Casino buffets running 24/7. Hotels filled with appliances and electronics. Miles of highway in 110‑degree weather. It all feels controlled until it isn’t. A grease flare‑up in a casino kitchen. A hotel room outlet that pops and lights… Read More »

Head‑On Collisions After Illegal Passing: When Impatience on Nevada Highways Becomes Negligence

By Mainor Ellis Injury Lawyers |

You’ve seen it a hundred times on Nevada highways. Two‑lane road. Long desert stretch. A line of cars stuck behind a semi going just under the speed limit. Somebody decides they’re tired of waiting. They swing out into the oncoming lane, punch the gas, and hope nothing comes around the bend. Sometimes they get… Read More »

Chemical Burns From Cleaning Products in Hotels and Casinos: Hidden Dangers in ‘Back of House’ Areas

By Mainor Ellis Injury Lawyers |

You never see it in the glossy ads. What you don’t see is the back of house: service corridors that smell like bleach and solvents, cramped laundry rooms, dish pits full of chemicals, and storage closets packed with industrial‑strength cleaners. If you work in a hotel or casino in Nevada, or even if you’re… Read More »

Housekeeping Carts, Cords, and Cluttered Hallways: Overlooked Hotel Hazards That Cause Guest Injuries

By Mainor Ellis Injury Lawyers |

You remember the lobby. What you probably don’t remember, until you get hurt, is the hallway.  The housekeeping cart parked across from your door. The vacuum cord stretching from one room to the next. The stack of linens, trash bags, room service trays, ladders, and “just for a minute” clutter that turns a hotel… Read More »

Spinal Cord Injuries: What a Lifetime of Care Costs and Who Pays

By Mainor Ellis Injury Lawyers |

Few injuries are as devastating (physically, emotionally, and financially) as a spinal cord injury (SCI).

5 Things Insurance Companies Don’t Want You to Know After a Car Accident

By Mainor Ellis Injury Lawyers |

Car accidents are traumatic enough on their own. They usually entail the shock, the pain, the medical bills, and the lost work. But for many victims, the real struggle begins after the crash: when dealing with the insurance company. Insurance companies like to present themselves as friendly and helpful, but make no mistake; they… Read More »

Why You Need to Document Daily Challenges After a Brain Injury (And How to Do It)

By Mainor Ellis Injury Lawyers |

Recovering from a brain injury isn’t like recovering from a broken bone. You can’t simply rest for six weeks and return to normal life. The effects of a traumatic brain injury (TBI) can be unpredictable, invisible, and deeply personal, impacting memory, mood, concentration, sleep, and even personality. All too often, brain injury victims face… Read More »

What Makes an Injury ‘Catastrophic’ and Why It Changes Everything in Court

By Mainor Ellis Injury Lawyers |

Not all injuries are created equal. A sprained wrist from a car accident is painful, but with proper treatment, life goes back to normal. A spinal cord injury, traumatic brain damage, or loss of a limb, however, is a completely different story. These are considered catastrophic injuries: life-altering events that fundamentally change how you… Read More »
