18-Wheeler Crashes in New Mexico

Statistics show that more than 500,000 crashes involving commercial trucks take place each year in the United States. These accidents cause hundreds of thousands of injuries and more than 5,000 fatalities annually. There are more than 43,000 traffic accidents reported annually in New Mexico, and nearly 3 percent of these accidents involve semi-trucks. These types of accidents are much more likely to result in fatal injuries. An estimated 1 out of every 35 trucking accidents in New Mexico ends in death compared to 1 in every 130 car crashes. 

There is a significant chance that you suffered critical injuries if you were involved in a crash with a large semi-truck. You may not know what to do next in order to start your claim for deserved compensation. Only an attorney with previous experience handling semi-truck injury cases can help you get the financial restitution needed for a full recovery.
