New Mexico Distracted Driving Accidents

There have been more fatal car accidents as a result of our culture's increased reliance on technology. Driver distractions are more prevalent than ever in New Mexico, where most drivers have electronic devices like cell phones and smartwatches at their disposal. In 2020, 3,142 persons lost their lives as a result of inattentive driving. In 2019, distracted driving incidents across the nation resulted in 424,000 injuries and more than 3,100 fatalities.

New Mexicans frequently have two alternatives for regaining financial stability following an automobile accident. Usually, the victim will make a claim with the responsible party's insurance carrier. Even if the victim has proof that the irresponsible driver was speeding or participating in other hazardous behavior, achieving an equitable and complete settlement may be challenging. Insurance firms bully victims and deny them the full compensation to which they are legally entitled. If you do not have a representation fighting for your rights, you run the risk of being taken advantage of by an insurer.

Our attorneys are able to thoroughly examine the claims of our clients by projecting future medical bills, missed wages, and other expenses in addition to the immediate costs associated with a car accident. The settlement should cover your pain and suffering as a result of the injury. Before speaking with the insurance company, we will carefully assess the claim's value. If the insurance company does not provide a reasonable settlement for your damages, we will pursue compensation in court.
