Car Accidents in New Mexico

The unfortunate truth is that tens of thousands of people across New Mexico are injured as a result of automobile accidents that take place every year. Far too often, these accidents are preventable. When drivers fail to maintain control of their vehicle and engage in negligent actions, such as speeding or failing to yield, they can cause severe harm to other people sharing the road.

Unfortunately, it is all too common for victims of car crashes to be left with severe injuries that impact every aspect of their lives. After being hurt in an accident, injured parties have the ability to file personal injury claims against those who are responsible. The state of New Mexico is considered to be an at-fault state. This means that if you are hurt as a result of another person’s negligent actions, you have the right to file an auto accident claim against them to recover compensation for some of the damages you face. It is important to remember that you have a period of up to three years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim in most cases. However, there are various factors that can shorten the amount of time you have. It is best to seek guidance from an Albuquerque car accident lawyer right away to ensure you have the best chance of getting justice.
