1. The provisions of NRS 616A.435 to 616A.460, inclusive, do not prevent any claimant from engaging private counsel at any time, but the employment of private counsel relieves the Nevada Attorney for Injured Workers from further presentation of the claimant’s case. Any claimant who uses the services of the Nevada Attorney for Injured Workers and who also retains private counsel shall reimburse the Division for the reasonable cost of the services of the Nevada Attorney for Injured Workers. 2. The Nevada Attorney for Injured Workers shall submit a report to the Governor containing a statement of the number of claimants represented, the status of each case and the amount and nature of the expenditures made by his or her office. (Added to NRS by 1977, 887; A 1981, 1463; 1985, 668; 1991, 834; 1993, 1861)—(Substituted in revision for NRS 616.2539)
