Hello! This is Taiya, my best friend for almost two decades. She was in a life-changing accident in March 2025, which left her struggling on the day-to-day and in a tough financial position. She was visiting Las Vegas for one night and was hit as a pedestrian in a crosswalk by a vehicle with no headlights on. She had to get two surgeries, including a full facial reconstruction that involved having her jaw wired shut and metal put into her face, and she was in the hospital for over a week. The Metro Police Department claims that they do not have a police report, making it increasingly difficult to obtain information from the insurance company.

This will require a lawyer to obtain the necessary information to help pay for medical bills, etc. We are hoping to get some help hiring a lawyer, paying for medical bills, including continuing appointments with doctors, and monthly and daily expenses(car bill, gas, storage unit, phone bill, groceries), as Taiya was not able to return to work due to her injuries. This has been devastating for the family, and I want to see my friend able to live her life somewhat normally again as she looks for a new job, in a place with few job opportunities.
