Nevada County is located in the Sierra Nevada area of California, which is part of the greater Sacramento area. It occupies a large geographical area but has a smaller population than many of the surrounding counties. The county has a total area of almost 975 square miles, but had a population of less than 100,000 in the 2010 census. The main cities in Nevada County are Nevada City (which is the county seat), Grass Valley, Truckee, and Penn Valley.
Although Nevada County has a fairly small population when compared with other counties in the area, there are a disproportionate number of automobile accidents and traffic deaths. In 2011, there were six fatalities and 393 injuries from automobile accidents in Nevada County. In addition, there were two pedestrian fatalities and 17 pedestrian injuries, 15 bicyclist injuries, and one motorcycle fatality and 30 motorcycle injuries.

Liberty Law also helps victims of brain injuries, burn injuries, or spinal cord injuries.
Victims of automobile accidents often are confused and uncertain about what to do. They may have mounting medical bills and may be unable to work, which can lead to financial devastation.
