How to File a Personal Injury Claim in New Mexico

Navigating the personal injury claims process can be tricky, but you don’t have to do it alone. Here are some essential steps to take after a wrongful injury:   

  1. Seek medical attention: After an accident, ensuring your health and safety is a top priority. Seeking immediate medical attention is crucial to establish documentation of the accident and rule out serious underlying injuries. 
  2. Secure legal representation: Consulting with a personal injury lawyer is vital to navigating the claims process efficiently and establishing liability in your case.
  3. Negotiation: Our time-tested trial lawyers can negotiate effectively with insurers and other involved parties to maximize your chance of securing a fair settlement.
  4. Litigation: As experienced litigators, our advocates are prepared to represent your best interests at trial if necessary to pursue the maximum compensation you deserve. 

How Long Do I Have to File a PI Claim in Hobbs?

In New Mexico, the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim is generally three years from the date of the accident. Consulting with a trusted attorney is paramount to filing your claim correctly and within the appropriate deadline. 

Do I Have to Accept the Insurance Company’s First Offer? 

In the vast majority of cases, it’s best to avoid accepting the insurance company’s first offer. This is because the initial offer is typically a lowball settlement that won’t fully cover your losses and future expenses. Securing reliable representation is imperative to ensure you’re compensated fairly and take back your life after a wrongful injury. Our attorneys can evaluate your claim with a practiced legal eye to identify liable parties, accurately calculate damages, and maximize available compensation in your case.
