We Hold Liable Parties Accountable
The truck driver may not be the only party at fault for your accident injuries. New Mexico follows comparative fault negligence rules, which mean that liable parties pay injury victims a settlement according to their level of culpability. Grano Law Offices, P.C. will investigate all parties involved in your accident and hold them accountable for your physical and financial losses.
Some of these parties may include:
- Government entities
- Inspectors
- Insurance companies
- Loading companies
- Manufacturers
- Mechanics
- Shipping companies
- Truck companies
- Truck operators
- Truck drivers
- Other drivers
Your accident injuries are not your fault, and you should not have to pay for damages and long-term consequences that someone else caused you. The legal team at Grano Law Offices, P.C. cares and will fight for every penny that negligent parties owe you.
New Mexico Laws Protect Your Right to Compensation
Insurance companies do not always pay their fair share of injury settlements for various reasons, including the mitigation of fraud. Do not let them get away with paying you a subpar offer because they think your injuries are not severe enough. Hold them accountable by hiring a truck accident attorney to represent your rights.
Marc Grano will hold them accountable for the following awards as they apply to your case:
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Lost wages and benefits
- Current and future medical bills
- Physical pain and suffering
- Punitive damages, although rare
- Wrongful death awards if you lost family
- And more, as recoverable
Our state’s laws protect your right to compensation. However, you need evidence to demonstrate why you deserve these awards. If you have a severe injury or lost a family member’s life, Grano Law Offices, P.C. will investigate your accident, preserve evidence, and make a strategic demand for a settlement on your behalf.
Statutes Impose Deadlines on Truck Accident Injury Cases
The New Mexico statute of limitations is a legal period by which you have to file a claim. The statute of limitations is up to three (3) years from your injury or family member’s death. Missing these critical deadlines will result in a loss of your rights to pursue compensation for damages.
Other Deadlines May Also Apply
Depending upon the facts of your case, it may require a much faster response. For instance, if you were injured by a government vehicle, you only have up to 90 days to meet the notification requirement under the New Mexico Tort Claims Act. Take us up on our office for a Free Case Evaluation below to ensure that you did not miss any key deadlines.
