Charged with DUI Causing Injury or Death at North Las Vegas Detention Center?
Freedom First defends DUI Causing Injury or Death cases (NRS 484C.430) booked through NLV Jail and the North Las Vegas Justice Court. DUI causing substantial bodily harm or death is a Category B felony with mandatory prison. The fight is almost always over causation — was the impairment actually what caused the harm, or would the crash have happened anyway?
What DUI Causing Injury or Death (NRS 484C.430) actually means
Under Nevada law, DUI Causing Injury or Death is classified as a non-violent felony. The State must prove every element beyond a reasonable doubt — and that's where defense work begins.
