Car Accidents in New Mexico
Motor vehicle accidents can result in immense devastation. Unfortunately, thousands of individuals statewide suffer injuries annually due to collisions caused by negligent and reckless drivers. In New Mexico, negligence laws allow individuals to seek compensation for damages resulting from car accidents caused by another party’s fault. However, the degree of fault can affect the recoverable compensation. If the plaintiff shares fault, their compensation diminishes in proportion to their responsibility for the crash. Seeking assistance from a New Mexico car accident lawyer promptly is vital to maximizing potential compensation.
New Mexico requires drivers to maintain only minimum liability insurance, comprising:
- Coverage of $25,000 per individual for bodily injury or death.
- Coverage of $50,000 for bodily injury or death involving two or more individuals in a single accident.
- A minimum coverage of $10,000 for property damage or injury to other vehicles involved in the accident.
Given these modest minimums, obtaining fair compensation for damages poses a challenge for New Mexico car accident victims. Hence, contacting a competent legal team immediately after an accident is essential to securing the rightful compensation.
