Answers to your most
commonly asked questions

How long do I have to file a car accident claim in New Mexico?

In New Mexico, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is three years from the date of the accident. It's crucial to act promptly to preserve your rights.

What compensation can I recover after a car accident?

Victims may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, property damage, and more. Each case is unique, so it's best to consult with an attorney.

What if I was partially at fault for the accident?

New Mexico follows a comparative negligence rule, meaning you can still recover damages even if you were partially at fault, though your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault.

How much does it cost to hire Cesar Ornelas Injury Law?

We operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning you don't pay unless we win your case.

Can I handle the insurance claim myself?

While it's possible, insurance companies often aim to minimize payouts. Having experienced legal representation ensures your rights are protected and you receive fair compensation.
