Legal Question in Employment Law in Nevada

Assuming you have worked long enough in the recent past that you are otherwise eligible for unemployment benefits, you have a good chance of being able to collect benefits. Your employer, if your employer even challenges your benefits, will likely claim that you have engaged in misconduct. See NRS 612.385. Nonetheless, you should apply online, in person, or by telephone immediately. Soon thereafter, you will get a call from an investigator (referred to as an adjudicator). If the investigator feels that you are not entitled to benefits, you will receive a letter informing you of the same by mail. Once you receive this letter, you only have a very short period of time to file an appeal. Read and study the letter to ascertain the last day in which you can file an appeal so that you do not waive any of your rights. Immediately after receiving a letter informing you that you've been denied benefits, you should consult with an attorney. Also, you should consult with an attorney prior to filing your appeal notice.
