The majority of car crashes are completely preventable and the result of reckless drivers' actions. Driver distraction is a quickly growing contributor to serious car accidents in New Mexico and across the country. Statistics have found that nearly 3,000 people are killed each year in distracted driving crashes in the United States. This makes up nearly 8 to 9 percent of traffic fatalities reported each year. There were 3,142 reported fatalities involving driver distraction in 2020, and this includes 396 deaths involving mobile phone use.
You need an experienced attorney to make sure you are able to recover completely after a serious traffic accident. Your lawyer will be able to provide tailor-made legal advice for your unique situation. You should always discuss your case with an experienced attorney if you sustain serious injuries in a vehicle collision. Going up against a large insurance provider can be very difficult on your own. These companies are known for downplaying victims’ claims and paying out far less than the real value of their claims. If you have an experienced Albuquerque car crash lawyer working on your case, the insurer will not be able to take advantage of you and force you to accept a subpar settlement offer.
An insurance adjuster will likely reach out to you pretty soon after the accident and ask you to provide a statement. The adjuster will probably tell you that giving a settlement will speed up the recovery process and allow you to get your compensation more quickly. Unfortunately, this is usually not the reality. After an accident, the insurer is responsible for paying for your damages. The money for this settlement comes directly from their own pockets, and this is why the insurer will try to get you to accept the smallest settlement possible. This can potentially harm your ability to make a complete recovery from your accident.
