Motorcycle Crashes in New Mexico

The year 2015 had a total of 298 traffic fatalities in New Mexico, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Motorcycles were involved in 38 fatalities in total or 13% of all road fatalities. The year 2015 saw the lowest total over the preceding ten years, but motorcycle crashes continue to be a serious concern for New Mexico residents. You should speak with a lawyer right away if you or a loved one was wounded in a motorcycle accident.

Although insurance adjusters are in charge of handling claims from vehicle accident victims, their main goal is to provide plaintiffs with the smallest financial settlement they can. If you just rely on adjusters for the duration of the settlement phase, they will use every trick in the book to deny your claim and prevent you from getting your full compensation. These insurance representatives will target individuals who are in New Mexico vehicle accidents without an attorney or who are unsure of how much compensation they should get.

Many accident victims are prone to accepting the lowball offers made by overzealous insurance adjusters after filing for compensation. Because insurance adjusters frequently settle claims for less than their full value, it is never a good idea to handle your claim on your own. The insurance adjuster conducts this on a daily basis, while you might not have any prior experience with instances involving motorcycle accidents. Never give an insurance adjuster your personal contact information to avoid being unfairly taken advantage of.
