The notorious “wild, wild west” town of Pioche, Nevada is now known as a “living ghost town”, with just over 800 residents calling this unincorporated community of Lincoln County home (though in its prime 150 years ago there were over 8000 residents).
Pioche garnered its name as being the ‘baddest town in the West’ for a number of reasons, though one of the most memorable is the fact that 72 individuals lost their lives
before the community’s first recorded natural death. As a Nevada state Mineralogist stated in 1873, “About one-half of the community are thieves, scoundrels and murderers… you can go uptown and get shot very easily. Peaceful! Sure, if you stayed out of the way of the bullets.”
Fortunately long gone are the days when the only law was that of the gun in Pioche. Today when disputes arise between individuals, the other party need not resort to physical violence, but instead can protect him or herself physically and financially with the help of the personal injury attorneys at Carter Cullen.
The National Safety Council recently reported that approximately 24.1 million Americans sustain a personal injury each and every year, with many of those being due to the
negligence of another party.
Some of the most common of these claims include:
Personal injury cases are more than just trying to recover property or any type of monetary loss. These cases entail a deep investigation into the mental, emotional, and physical losses that an injured party may have suffered as the result of someone else. This is absolutely necessary so that the injured party can rightfully be awarded the full compensation amount to which he or she is entitled.
The personal injury attorneys at the law firm of Carter Cullen are experienced in providing legal counsel to anyone who has suffered an injury due to others’ negligence – your interests are their primary concern.
