Joel started practicing law in 1978 with
the firm of Rose, Edwards, Hunt, & Pearson. Eventually,
he became a partner in that firm in 1984, at which time it
was called Edwards, Hale, & Hansen, Ltd. In 1994, he formed
his own firm formerly known as Hansen & Hansen, LLC and
currently it is Hansen & Rasmussen.

Hansen & Rasmussen provides sophisticated legal services
for almost any type of injury. We have litigated many kinds
of personal injury matters including, wrongful death, auto
accident injuries, pedestrian injuries, premises injuries,
construction site injuries, and product liability claims.
Personal injury law is also known as tort law. A tort is
described as "a civil wrong or wrongful act, whether
intentional or accidental, from which injury occurs to another.
Torts include all negligence cases as well as intentional
wrongs which result in harm." Torts fall under three
categories:
Intentional torts - purposely inflicting injury.
Negligent torts - causing an accident that results in injury.
Strict liability torts - manufacturing, marketing or selling
defective products that result in injury.
The most common grounds for a civil lawsuit involve negligence.
These include motor vehicle accidents, motorcycle accidents,
pedestrian accidents, swimming and diving accidents, boating
accidents and premises liability (slip and fall) accidents.
When an accident occurs due to negligence, the injured party
may file a claim against the negligent party to recover all
their damages. Damages generally include current and future
medical expenses, property damage, pain and suffering, current
and future loss of income, loss of enjoyment and in certain
cases, punitive damages.
In order to prove negligence, you must support your claim
with the following 3 facts:
Negligence - The other party was negligent.
Causation - Their negligence caused the accident.
Damages - You suffered damages as a result of the accident.
It is also imperative that you file your claim within the
time allotted by the State of Nevada, generally 2 years from
the date of injury.
Hansen & Rasmussen provides sophisticated and innovative
legal services for almost any type of injury. We not only
handle claims for plaintiffs with obvious injuries, but we
can also pursue the more challenging and less obvious injuries
such as a traumatic brain injury.
Hansen & Rasmussen believes that in order to represent our
clients in the best possible manner, our firm must have an
understanding of the human anatomy and how it responds to
an injury. Therefore, through experience and education, our
firm is able to expertly evaluate medical injuries and pursue
personal injury claims on behalf of the injured plaintiff.
While proving a physical, emotional, or cognitive injury
can be difficult, our experienced and knowledgeable attorneys
and staff are able to undertake difficult cases and prevail,
convincing skeptics of the merits of a claim via credible,
trustworthy evidence and objective test findings. Hansen & Rasmussen is committed to protecting our client's rights and
