Local context

New Mexico legal landscape

New Mexico follows a pure comparative fault system. Your compensation may be reduced by your fault percentage, but you are not prevented from seeking damages. Cases involving mining, tribal lands, and I-40 crashes each have unique jurisdictional questions.

Most personal injury claims have a three-year statute of limitations. Confirm the time limit and appropriate court with a New Mexico attorney.
