At SJW Car Accident & Personal Injury Lawyers, we have years of firsthand experience working with car accident victims and witnessing the profound mental and physical injuries our clients and their families have had to endure. In an effort to give back to our community and support Las Vegas car accident victims outside our legal representation, we are proud to launch a new initiative aimed at helping the next generation. In 2025, we will be offering a Car Accident Survivor Scholarship for those seeking higher educational opportunities by pursuing college degrees. This scholarship will be available to individuals who have personally been involved in a car accident, as well as those who have lost loved ones in such accidents, as we want to recognize that they too are victims of Las Vegas car accidents. This initiative is our way of offering hope and support to the future of our community and those navigating the aftermath of a car accident.
