Las Vegas, NV (September 30th, 2026) – A pedestrian crossing outside a crosswalk can affect a wrongful death claim in Nevada, but it does not automatically prevent the family from pursuing compensation. That question is especially relevant after a recent Las Vegas crash in which police say a 52-year-old pedestrian entered Lake Mead Boulevard outside a crosswalk before a collision with a semi-truck. Nevada law considers the actions of everyone involved when determining fault.
