Auto Accidents in New Mexico

Statistics show that younger motorists are more likely to be involved in a crash. This could be due to an increased risk of engaging in driver distraction. In fact, victims ages 20 to 24 were involved in the most car accidents in New Mexico in 2015. A total of 10,124 of the 83,415 reported crashes in the state that year involved someone in that age range. Car accidents continue to be the leading cause of death and serious injury for state residents, and you need to be ready if you are seriously injured in a crash at the hands of a reckless motorist. 

Working with a qualified attorney can provide many benefits when you pursue a claim for compensation. Your lawyer can provide guidance on any laws that may be relevant to your case and legal rights. They can also inform you of the true value of your claim so you do not accept a settlement offer that is not enough to cover the full extent of your damages. Lawyers also collect key evidence in order to back up your claim and prove who is responsible for your injuries and damages resulting from a car accident. 

Insurance companies are known for disputing valid claims. They do this to prevent paying out compensation that is owed to crash victims. You need an Albuquerque car crash lawyer who is working as an advocate to avoid being unfairly taken advantage of during a personal injury suit. Your attorney will be experienced with the tactics used by insurers and be able to help navigate the complicated process of settlement negotiation. You should not take on these negotiations on your own. You need to contact a trained legal team to make sure your legal rights are upheld.
