You need a Henderson dog bite lawyer who moves fast to identify the owner, secure coverage, and get your treatment paid. Rex Law handles the fight while you focus on healing.
Free consultation. No fees unless we win.
What It Takes to Prove Owner Responsibility
Nevada generally follows a negligence standard. That means owners are liable when they knew or should have known their dog posed a risk-or when they failed to use reasonable care (like violating leash laws). Prior incidents, "no restraint," or ignoring warning signs strengthen your claim. If the attack happened on business or rental property,
premises liability may also apply.
Homeowners, Renters, and Landlords-Finding Coverage
Most payouts come from homeowners or renters insurance. We identify the policy, file the claim, and press for full value. In some cases, a landlord who ignored dangerous-dog complaints can
share liability. Rex Law tracks down every source so medical bills and reconstruction for scars are covered.
Scars, Infections, Nerve Damage, and PTSD
Dog attacks cause deep punctures, lacerations, nerve damage, torn tendons, and dangerous infections. Facial scars and hand injuries are common, along with anxiety and sleep issues. We work with your providers to document surgeries, therapy, and future care-and pursue
pain and suffering for what you've endured.
Protecting Kids and Their Futures
Children often suffer facial wounds and trauma that demand careful, long-term planning. We build claims that account for future procedures and counseling, and we handle
court approval of settlements when required. Rex Law treats these cases with urgency and precision.

Five Steps to Strengthen Your Claim
Your Questions, Answered
Is Nevada a "one-bite" state?
Practically, Nevada is negligence-based; prior aggression helps prove knowledge, but you can win without a prior bite when the owner failed reasonable care.
What if the owner says I provoked the dog?
We investigate; comparative fault may reduce damages but doesn't erase a valid claim.
The attack happened at an apartment-who's liable?
The owner first; landlords can face claims if they ignored known dangers.
Will I have to sue my neighbor?
Many cases resolve through insurance without suing personally.
