Hobbs Auto Accident Lawyers

Car accidents are the main source of personal injury claims in New Mexico. These accidents occur daily across our state, resulting in injuries that can range from severe whiplash to the permanent disability of traumatic brain injuries or spinal cord damage. Nearly everyone has been in such a traffic collision or knows someone who has. Unfortunately, their prevalence has become almost an expected fact in our society. That is based on our main source of transportation as the auto we drive to work, to school, to ferry our children around, and complete the daily activities in which we all engage.

Fortunately, when you are injured in a negligence-based auto accident, you are protected by New Mexico law that gives you the right to compensation for your damages and losses. The Gorilla Law Firm can help with enforcing your rights through injury claims seeking such compensation, helping you get the medical treatment you need, and assisting you with getting your life back on track. Our Hobbs car accident lawyers are here to give you the professional help needed in managing all aspects of your claim, from taking on the insurance company to dealing with medical expenses, vehicle repair expenses, and more.

How Our Hobbs Auto Accident Attorneys Can Assist You

In the wake of a serious car accident, you may be overwhelmed by what you are facing in terms of physical pain or discomfort, medical expenses, and how to handle the legal details of your claim. Insurance companies know this which is why they can take advantage of you at this vulnerable time. They may pressure you into accepting a settlement far below what your claim is really worth, ask you to make recorded statements that can later be used against you, or try to blame you for causing your own injuries. To avoid all this, you need a strong ally and advocate. That is where our firm can come in to protect your rights and take professional steps to help you get the compensation you deserve.

We can help you by doing the following:

• Conducting an independent investigation into your accident by gathering and preserving critical evidence that determines fault and backs up your compensation claim.
• We take over the claims process so that insurers and others can only deal with us, giving you the time and space to focus on your recovery.
• After carefully preparing your claim, we aggressively negotiate on your behalf to secure a fair and full settlement. 
• If negotiation does not result in a fair result and it is in your best interests, we will take your case to court before a judge and jury. 
• Throughout the claims process, we will remain accessible for all your concerns and questions and will keep you updated on your case. 

We recommend that you contact us as soon as possible after the accident so that we can properly advise and guide you as well as get to work securing important evidence that could easily be lost, forgotten, or made inaccessible. 

Our firm handles all types of auto accidents, from those caused by traffic violations, such as speeding, tailgating, making improper turns, distracted or drunk driving, and more. 

Understanding Your Compensation in an Auto Accident Claim

Your compensation will depend on the extent of your injuries as well as the percentage of fault you may have had in causing the accident. Overall, compensation is designed to pay for your medical expenses, including any medical care you may need in the future, compensation for your lost income, your auto repairs or replacement, your physical pain and suffering, and your emotional distress. 

In the most serious cases involving catastrophic injuries, you may recover compensation for your lost earning capacity, loss of enjoyment of life, renovations to your home or car to accommodate a permanent disability, and any other expenses related to your injuries. These are the most complex cases that often require medical professionals, financial experts, and others who can predict how such these life-altering injuries will affect you long into the future.
