What Steps Can You Take if Your Civil Rights Have Been Violated in Nevada?

by The Law Offices of Kenneth E. Lyon III • 30 January 2025
It can be distressing when your civil rights are violated. Whether it’s discrimination, police misconduct, or an unfair denial of services, violations of your rights can leave you feeling powerless. In Nevada, however, you have legal options to seek justice. Here’s what you should do if you believe your civil rights have been violated. When you need an attorney with civil rights experience in Reno or the surrounding areas, call The Law Offices of Kenneth E. Lyon III first. Document Everything The first step is to gather as much evidence as possible. Write down detailed notes about what happened, including dates, times, and locations. If there were witnesses, collect their contact information. Photos, videos, and copies of relevant documents (like emails or official forms) can also strengthen your case. File a Complaint Depending on the nature of the violation, you may need to file a formal complaint with a relevant agency. For example: If you’ve experienced workplace discrimination, file a claim with the Nevada Equal Rights Commission (NERC) or the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). For housing discrimination, submit a complaint to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). If it involves police misconduct, report the incident to the appropriate law enforcement agency’s internal affairs department. Filing these complaints creates an official record of the incident and is often required before pursuing legal action. Consult an Attorney Civil rights law is complex, and having an experienced attorney on your side is essential. At the Law Offices of Kenneth E. Lyon III, we specialize in protecting your rights and navigating Nevada’s legal system. We’ll evaluate your case, guide you through the legal process, and fight for the justice you deserve. Take Legal Action If necessary, your attorney can file a lawsuit on your behalf. This can result in compensation for damages, policy changes, or both. Nevada law provides strong protections, and courts take civil rights violations seriously.

Understanding Liability: Who’s Responsible for Slip and Fall Injuries?

by The Law Offices of Kenneth E. Lyon III • 29 December 2024
Slip and fall accidents can happen anywhere, from grocery stores to office buildings, and even on sidewalks. While these incidents might seem minor, they can lead to serious injuries and long-term consequences. In slip and fall cases, determining who is responsible for covering medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages is essential. If you’ve suffered an injury from a slip and fall in Reno or the surrounding areas, call The Law Offices of Kenneth E. Lyon III first. Property Owners’ Responsibility In most cases, the owner or manager of a property is responsible for maintaining a safe environment. This duty includes regular inspections, prompt repairs, and warnings about potential hazards, such as wet floors or icy walkways. If a slip and fall occurs due to their negligence, they may be held liable for the resulting injuries. For example, if a grocery store fails to clean up a spill in a reasonable amount of time, they could be responsible for an accident caused by the slippery floor. The Role of Visitors Visitors also bear some responsibility for their safety. If someone trips over an obvious hazard, such as a brightly marked step, they may share some liability for not exercising reasonable caution. In legal terms, this is often referred to as “comparative negligence.” Courts may reduce compensation if the injured party is found partially at fault. Third-Party Liability Sometimes, a third party may be liable for a slip and fall. For instance, if a contractor leaves tools in a walkway or a cleaning company neglects to place warning signs on a wet floor, they could be held accountable for any accidents. Proving Liability To establish liability, the injured person must prove that the property owner or another party knew (or should have known) about the hazard and failed to address it. Evidence like photos, surveillance footage, and witness statements can strengthen a claim.
