High-Speed Collisions in New Mexico

Tens of thousands of people die in car accidents across the United States each year as a direct result of speeding. Excess speed continues to be the leading cause of roadway fatalities nationwide.

Speeding increases the risk of being involved in a car accident and the possibility of incurring serious injuries.

Insurance adjusters want to convince you to accept a subpar settlement offer if you have been injured. These adjusters are trained to get you to accept a settlement that is significantly less than what you are entitled to.  A large insurer wants to essentially prevent you from collecting the compensation required for a full recovery so protect their bottom line. Our firm is well aware of these and other bad-faith strategies.
