Car Crashes in New Mexico

Car accidents continue to be the leading cause of death and serious injury, not just in New Mexico, but across the country as well. Statistics show that 2021 was one of the deadliest years on the state’s roads in recent records. There were 470 traffic deaths reported in New Mexico that year. Compared to only 425 roadway fatalities in 2019, this is a considerable increase. Thousands more state residents are hurt by reckless drivers every year. 

You should not be held financially liable for damage resulting from a serious car crash if you were not at fault for the accident. Many crash victims in New Mexico find themselves unexpectedly dealing with serious injuries and other damages after being hurt by a reckless driver, and you may not be sure of how to pursue a claim for compensation in order to make a financial recovery. You should reach out to a team of qualified personal injury lawyers if you suffered life-threatening injuries in a collision and want to make sure that the at-fault party is brought to justice. 

It is always recommended that you have a trained legal representative if you are wanting to pursue a claim against the at-fault driver in a car crash. Large insurance providers know how to handle these types of cases in a way that they come out on top, and that means making sure that the crash victim receives the smallest settlement possible. The insurer will try to make it seem that their settlement is enough to cover your damages, but our legal team knows that this is rarely the case. We can help you take on the negotiation process while you focus on your complete recovery.
