Scott Poisson

Scott L. Poisson is the founder and lead attorney at High Stakes Injury Law, a firm dedicated exclusively to representing personal injury victims across Nevada. With over 30 years of legal experience, Scott has helped clients recover more than $100 million in compensation, earning a reputation for strategic excellence and tireless client advocacy.

A graduate of Davidson College with a B.A. in Economics (1990), Scott also played Division I soccer, developing teamwork, discipline, and drive that fueled his legal success. He earned his Juris Doctor with honors from the University of Miami School of Law in 1993. A pivotal early experience—working on a traumatic brain injury case during a summer clerkship—inspired Scott to devote his career to helping injured individuals seek justice.

Since passing multiple state bar exams on his first attempt, Scott has built a results-driven personal injury practice grounded in hard work, integrity, and client-focused representation. Known for his meticulous case preparation and strategic advocacy, he consistently outthinks and outworks opposing counsel to secure meaningful results for clients facing serious injuries, lost income, and overwhelming medical bills.

Scott’s legal focus includes car accidents, trucking collisions, traumatic brain injuries, wrongful death, and catastrophic injury cases. He tailors a strategic plan for each case, centered on the client’s end goals and backed by the firm’s extensive resources.

Clients consistently describe Scott as empathetic, trustworthy, and relentless. His hands-on approach—beginning with the first consultation and extending beyond the case resolution—sets him apart in a crowded legal field.

Scott Poisson continues to lead High Stakes Injury Law as a premier personal injury firm in Las Vegas. His commitment to justice, strategic leadership, and deep compassion make him a powerful ally for injured individuals seeking to rebuild their lives.
