What Is a Rear-End Collision?

A rear-end collision happens when one vehicle crashes into the back of another — usually due to:

  • Distracted driving (texting, using GPS)

  • Tailgating or following too closely

  • Sudden stops in traffic

  • Speeding or reckless lane changes

  • Poor weather or road conditions

While these accidents may seem "minor," the impact forces can still cause serious, lasting injuries — especially at intersections or highway speeds.

Common Injuries in Rear-End Crashes

Even low-speed rear-end collisions can result in medical complications. Injuries may include:

  • Whiplash (neck strain from rapid motion)

  • Back and spinal injuries (herniated discs, pinched nerves)

  • Concussions or traumatic brain injuries

  • Shoulder, wrist, or knee injuries from bracing or airbag deployment

  • Chronic pain and post-accident anxiety

If you feel any pain or stiffness — even days after the crash — seek medical attention immediately and speak with a lawyer about your rights.

Why Rear-End Accident Victims Need a Lawyer

Rear-end collisions often look simple — but insurance companies still try to delay, deny, or reduce valid claims. Here’s how a Las Vegas attorney helps protect you:

  • Prove driver negligence (e.g., texting, following too close)

  • Document your injuries and link them to the crash

  • Push back on "minor impact" defenses used by insurers

  • Fight for full compensation — medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering

  • Deal with adjusters so you don’t have to

You focus on healing. We’ll connect you with a lawyer who handles the fight.

Rear-End Crash Claims and Nevada Law

Nevada follows a fault-based insurance system. In most rear-end cases, the rear driver is presumed at fault — but it’s not automatic. You must still prove:

  • They were following too closely or distracted

  • You weren’t braking suddenly without cause

  • The injuries are directly related to the crash

A skilled attorney gathers police reports, camera footage, traffic data, and expert opinions to build your case. You typically have two years to file an injury claim in Nevada — but don’t wait. Every day matters.

Rear-End Accident Lawyer FAQ

What should I do right after a crash in Henderson?

Usually, yes — but not always. If you made an unsafe or sudden stop without reason, liability may be disputed. A lawyer can clarify this.

What if I didn’t feel pain until days later?

That’s common with whiplash and soft-tissue injuries. You can still file a claim as long as you seek medical treatment and document the symptoms.

Can I get help if the at-fault driver was uninsured?

Yes. If you have uninsured motorist coverage, a lawyer can help file a claim through your own policy.

How much is a rear-end case worth?

It depends on your injuries, lost income, and long-term effects. An attorney can help calculate the full value of your case — not just what insurance offers.

Is it free to speak with a lawyer?

Yes. Consultations are 100% free, and you’re under no obligation to hire. You’ll get real legal advice — fast.
