Car Accidents in New Mexico

Motor vehicle accidents can be incredibly devastating. The unfortunate truth is that thousands of people across our state are injured every year as a result of collisions caused by negligent and reckless drivers. In New Mexico, negligence laws state that individuals can seek compensation for damages resulting from a car accident caused by another party’s fault. However, the degree of fault can impact the amount of compensation recoverable. If the plaintiff shares fault, their compensation is reduced proportionally to their responsibility for the crash. Seeking assistance from a New Mexico car accident lawyer as soon as possible is essential to maximize potential compensation.

New Mexico mandates drivers to carry only minimum liability insurance, which includes:

• $25,000 coverage per individual for bodily injury or death.
• $50,000 coverage for bodily injury or death involving two or more individuals in a single accident.
• A minimum of $10,000 coverage for property damage or injury to other vehicles involved in the accident.

With these low minimums, obtaining fair compensation for damages can be challenging for New Mexico car accident victims. Therefore, contacting a competent legal team immediately after an accident is crucial to secure the necessary and rightful compensation.
