New Mexico Distracted Driving Crashes

The state of New Mexico has the highest rate of distracted driving collisions, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. New Mexico has twice as many distracted drivers as any other state, according to the most recent crash data. In 2020, there were 148 fatalities, or 10.05 per 100,000 licensed drivers, as a result of driver distraction.

Your main priority should be making a full recovery after incurring injuries in a car accident. Calling a lawyer is the first step on the road to recovery. After being hurt in a car accident, everyone has the right to just compensation for their suffering. Since large insurance companies frequently undervalue claims and occasionally outright refuse to pay claims that are legitimate, the process of filing a claim is more challenging. Unfortunately, many insurance companies are reluctant to provide fair settlement offers.

Filling out documentation is only a minor part of efficiently filing a claim. Your side of the story, the severity of your injuries, the reasons the other driver was at fault, and the arguments the insurance company should pay for your personal injury claim must all be presented in court. Giving the evidence the corporation asks for is also a part of this approach.

Before submitting a claim for financial compensation for injuries brought on by a car accident, there are specific steps you must take to protect your rights. You might not be able to comprehend the legal system completely on your own. As a result, you ought to discuss your circumstances with an experienced lawyer. If you were hurt in a car accident, the attorneys at Will Ferguson & Associates may be able to give you the assistance you need to successfully recover.
