Car Crashes in New Mexico

About 50,000 vehicle collisions occurred in New Mexico in 2019, resulting in 20,415 injuries and 425 fatalities. Auto accidents in the state are frequently the result of reckless actions such as drunk or distracted driving. Many things, such as lack of sleep, congested roads, and texting while driving, can cause serious car accidents. If you were hurt in an automobile accident in New Mexico due to the negligence of another driver, you might be entitled to compensation.

It is well known that New Mexico has the second-worst drivers in the country. If you are involved in an automobile accident, you need an experienced lawyer on your side to make sure you are able to do everything possible to protect your deserved compensation. When you have legal representation on your side, it can make a huge difference when pursuing a claim for compensation. You are likely dealing with damages such as a wrecked vehicle after a crash. This is just one of many potential losses commonly experienced by crash victims. 

Things such as your inability to work and cover your everyday expenses need to be considered in your claim. You may not be able to support yourself as you once could after your accident, and you may be able to collect money from the at-fault party's insurance carrier to cover the cost of your emergency room visit as well as any subsequent medical care required to treat your injuries.
