Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a personal injury lawsuit in New Mexico?
In New Mexico, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is three years from the date of the injury. If you miss this deadline, you may lose your right to sue. It is important to speak with a lawyer as soon as possible to protect your claim.
How does New Mexicos pure comparative fault rule affect my case?
New Mexico uses a pure comparative fault standard. This means you can recover compensation even if you are found to be 99 percent at fault. However, your total award will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are 30 percent at fault, you can recover 70 percent of the damages.
What types of damages can I recover in a Carlsbad personal injury case?
You may recover economic damages like medical expenses, lost wages, and property damage. You can also seek non-economic damages for pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life. In rare cases of gross negligence, punitive damages may be available.
