Thank you, Rebecca!sergio R.1676143554 ★★★★★ Mathew was my personal injury attorney after I was recent injured in a t bone incident. I made the mistake of starting with an attorney who told me I have “no case”Six figure settlement later and I beg to differ! If you’ve been injured, put Matt Work… to WORK!Nicole C.1674853224 ★★★★★ When you get tired of attorneys, who overpromise and under deliver, call Carlson & Work. From day one, they set expectations, put me in check when I needed to hear the truth and told me my arguments were weak and “wouldn’t move the dial” when I needed to hear it. No glitz, no glamour just lawyering. They are definitely blunt and upfront, so maybe not for everyone if you can’t handle the truth, but if you’re willing to listen, follow directions, and looking for just an all-around, honest business, this law firm is the place to start.Rock A.1674849017 ★★★★★ It took being hospitalized to realize how fragile life was, and how important planning my affairs would be to my family. While in the hospital, I started researching estate, planning firms to make sure that my family would never be put in a compromise position after a couple intakes, I went with Carlson and Work. I primarily selected them based off of how transparent and forthcoming they were throughout the intake process. My documents were done in less than a week and I sleep just a little better knowing things are in order if the worst case scenario ever happens again. I would highly recommend a sperm to any friends or family. Looking to get their affairs in order before it’s too late! FIVE STARS!Mario Ramos M.1674787572 ★★★★★ There’s no competition in northern Nevada when it comes to anyone running a business quite like Mathew and his team.

I hope I never need you guys again, but if I do, I feel so much better knowing you guys are out there!Peter D.1674757796 ★★★★★ I was told by three different firms that I did not have a basis for modification of child custody, and that relocation was simply too hard nowadays. Three different attorneys told me I had a hopeless case, and that I would never be able to move to Texas. Well, I write this review from Texas, where my child is thriving and my family is happy as ever thanks to Rebecca and Kenton working so hard on my relocation case I can’t thank you enough and review feels like it’s not even close to enough but it’s definitely a start.Gloria A.1674148389 ★★★★★ Mathew and his team were top notch and lived up to all my expectations.

Thank you all!Melissa C.1674088318 ★★★★★ Carlson & Work worked so hard after I was injured by another person in a very serious car accident.

I've worked with several law firms in the past and was always frustrated by the pointless updates and redundant emails simply looking for an opportunity to bill against my account.

These people are awesome and ethical!Nathan F.1669755457 ★★★★★ I've worked with several law firms in the past, and Carlson and Work is above and beyond the best I've experienced.

They were great and trustworthy; prepared, and thorough! I couldn’t have chosen a better option! Thank you!Pablo H.1667421647 ★★★★★ I recently consulted with Mr. Work but in the end, he refused to take my case.

My previous experiences made me very nervous about hiring any attorney without screening them thoroughly. I wish I would have contacted this firm from the beginning. My experience was night and day! They were patient, direct and knowledgeable throughout. I probably paid more than I should have to complete this case because they had so much to clean up but boy did they do a remarkable job. Don't think twice. These people are incredible!Fernanda Paulina Galindo M.1666711094 ★★★★★ Rebecca Carlson is an absolute bulldog! I needed a fighter to stand up against the so-called "men's rights attorney" and Rebecca absolutely out-classed, outsmarted and was overall the attorney we needed to put a bully in her place! If I've learned anything while looking for an attorney, it's that the attorneys who brag about how tough they are are the ones quickest to tuck their tails between their legs when an actual sophisticated attorney is it on the other side of the court room. I made the mistake by hiring a slimy attorney before Rebecca. I've lived in Reno for years and I have seen all of the tough talking commercials. This is not Rebecca Carlson's mode of operation. Rebecca is all about results and she delivered. A+Ana M.1666657050 ★★★★★ I had the chance to work with Kenton Karrasch and was very impressed.

What to Do if You’ve Been Attacked by a Dog

  2. Report the attack to animal control and law enforcement. Animal control can investigate the incident and determine if the dog poses a threat to public safety. Law enforcement can file a report and help you identify the dog’s owner.
  3. Seek legal representation. An experienced personal injury attorney can help you protect your rights and pursue compensation for your attack.

Nevada Dog Bite Laws

In Nevada, dog owners are strictly liable for any injuries caused by their dogs. This means that the owner is responsible for the victim’s damages, even if the dog has never bitten anyone before. The owner can only be held not liable if they can prove that they took reasonable precautions to prevent the attack, such as keeping the dog on a leash or in a fenced yard.

According to NRS 202, to prove liability in a Nevada dog bite case, the victim must show that:

  • They were lawfully present on the property where the attack occurred.
  • The dog caused their injuries.
  • They required healthcare services, their work was impacted, or were in pain from the event.

Recovering Damages for a Dog Bite

In Nevada, victims of dog bite attacks can recover several types of damages, including economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages refer to the financial losses incurred as a result of the attack, such as medical expenses, lost wages, and property damage. Non-economic damages refer to the emotional and psychological harm suffered by the victim, such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life. 

In some cases, victims may also be entitled to punitive damages, which are intended to punish the dog owner for particularly egregious conduct. To recover damages in a dog bite case, the victim must be able to demonstrate that the dog owner was negligent or otherwise responsible for the attack, and that the attack caused the victim to suffer damages.
