Pedestrian Accidents in New Mexico

Albuquerque is a city where many people choose to walk in order to get around. New Mexicans who are involved in pedestrian accidents are known to sustain deadly or seriously life-threatening injuries. The rate of fatal pedestrian accidents has consistently been the highest in the state of New Mexico, according to figures from the Governor's Safety Highway Association. An attorney can assist if a careless driver's actions behind the wheel resulted in your injuries or the loss of a loved one in a pedestrian accident. 

We advise injured pedestrians to contact an Albuquerque pedestrian accident attorney as soon as they can after their accident. The at-fault party's insurance company will attempt to take advantage of the fact that you might not be considering filing a lawsuit at the time and undervalue your claim. Our legal team will fight to increase your compensation, and you should start gathering evidence and putting together your case as soon as you can.

Whatever information you provide to the insurer may be used against you if you later attempt to obtain financial compensation for your medical costs, lost wages, mental suffering, and other losses. For example, if you say that you feel fine when asked how you are, an insurance adjuster may assume that you are not seriously hurt as a result of the collision. Your attorney can make sure that you do not make the same mistakes when pursuing your claim.
