New Mexico Car Crashes

It is difficult to truly feel safe when traveling in the state of New Mexico. According to recent figures, 2021 was the worst year on New Mexico’s roads ever recorded. There were 470 traffic fatalities that took place in the state that year, compared to only 425 reported in the Land of Enchantment in 2019. You can never completely control the actions of another driver, and that means you are at risk of being involved in a crash any time you are traveling on the road. 

The risk of suffering life-threatening injuries in the event of a crash is much higher than you may think. No one ever plans to be involved in a serious car accident, but when it does happen, you need to be ready to protect yourself. The insurer will likely try to deny your claim or at the very least reduce the value of your settlement. Unfortunately, it is common for crash victims to be taken advantage of by large insurance providers. This is one of the many reasons you need to have a qualified New Mexico personal injury lawyer on your side to handle these negotiations as you focus on your health and well-being. 

You should never leave your recovery to chance. If you are not able to recover the full cost of the damages resulting from the accident, it can put you in a very difficult financial situation. You need to do everything possible to ensure that you are able to make a full recovery for your injuries and other damages, and that means working with a trained lawyer.
