New Mexico Car Crashes

Unfortunately, New Mexico drivers are known for being among the worst in the country. Every 12 minutes, there is a recorded automobile crash in the state, and every 26 minutes, someone is hurt on the state’s roadways. Bernalillo County has the highest number of collisions in the state, and Albuquerque is home to some of the worst drivers in New Mexico. Statistics show that nearly one percent of collisions in the state result in fatalities, with nearly one-third ending in injuries. Some of the most prevalent causes of serious crashes in the state include speeding, driver distraction, and intoxication. If you or someone close to you is hurt by a reckless driver, you may be able to pursue a claim for compensation with the help of a trained lawyer. 

You should have a strategy in place in case a careless driver’s actions injure you or someone you love. To get the best out of your case, you should work with an experienced personal injury attorney who can help you pursue a comprehensive compensation claim. Accident victims frequently lack legal experience, and if you are not familiar with the legal system, you can be intimidated by the idea of filing a successful personal injury claim. You have to work as hard as you can to make sure you can get the full compensation you are owed. Working with a skilled lawyer who can give your case the time and care it needs to ensure a full recovery is essential to your recovery.
