Legal Question in Personal Injury in Nevada

Assualted in Las Vegas...

I was assaulted by 2 minors at a party, when I asked them to turn down the music. The party was loud and there was alcohol present. The onwer of the house allowed her sons to have the party and went out for the night. One of them blind sided me and I woke up 5 hours late in the hospital. What can I do? I have $5,000 in medical bills and need to have my nose fixed. The detective working the case said they will be getting getting arrest warrents soon and bring them in. What legal recourse do I have?

Re: Assualted in Las Vegas...

Your case sounds interesting. In the unlikely event that the assailants make you whole financially, for medical expenses, wage loss, pain and suffering, emotional distress and punitive damages, which could amount to a lot of money, I recommend that you hire an attorney to help maximize the relief allowed you, name all proper parties who may be liabile on various legal theories and insure that your claim is timely prosecuted. If you do not file you claim within the applicable statute of limitation, your claim may be forever barred. Since I have not been hired to render any opinion for you, including when the time runs in your case, I urge you to hire counsel immediately.
