New Mexico Car Accidents

In New Mexico, there were over 50,000 traffic accidents in 2019. Statistics show that year saw 425 additional fatalities and 2,415 injuries related to car accidents. Fatal car accidents can occur for a variety of reasons, including texting while driving, drowsy driving, and congested highways. Auto accidents commonly result from dangerous driving behaviors, such as driving while intoxicated or distracted. You might be eligible for compensation if the negligence of another motorist caused your injuries in a car accident in New Mexico.

Insurance adjusters handle the claims of numerous victims of auto accidents, but their main objective is to offer plaintiffs the cheapest payout possible. The adjusters will employ every trick in the book to deny your claim and keep you from receiving the full amount of compensation if you solely rely on them during the settlement process. The target market for these insurance companies will be those who are involved in car accidents in New Mexico without an attorney or who are unsure of how much compensation they need.

After filing for compensation, many accident victims are prone to accepting the lowball offers made by aggressive insurance adjusters. Never manage your claim without legal assistance to make sure you are getting a fair sum. Claims are frequently settled by insurance adjusters for less than their actual value. You might not be familiar with the auto accident scenarios that the insurance adjuster frequently handles. Never provide your personal phone number to an insurance adjuster; instead, give them the number for your attorney.
