Without an experienced wrongful death attorney working for you, establishing liability can be extremely challenging. You may think that a drunk driving case is so cut-and-dry that you don’t need a lawyer. However, there are many ways defendants can get out of compensating you fully in wrongful death claims. Make sure you maximize your recovery by hiring a New Mexico wrongful death attorney with experience and a proven track record of success.
Wrongful Death
Our Las Cruces, New Mexico wrongful death attorney focuses on the negligence that was involved in your loved one’s death to ensure that our investigation is conducted thoroughly before we negotiate a settlement or prepare a court case on your behalf.
Traffic Violations
Jackknife accidents are typically caused by truck drivers who are speeding or following traffic too closely. When these accidents occur, the trailer of the truck and its contents – which can weigh up to 80,000 pounds – swings around the truck's cab, often causing the contents to spill onto the roadway or end in a rollover.
Sex Crimes
Our Doña Ana County and Las Cruces negligent security lawyer works tirelessly to hold commercial, public, and private property owners accountable for their lack of security, which can lead to sexual assaults, physical attacks, and personal injuries that are common when there are no protective measures taken to keep our residents safe from harm.
The breach of an insurance contract can also include bad faith insurance practices. The good faith and fair treatment that policyholders rely on when they suffer an injury or property damage is part of the expectations provided by their contractual insurance policy. When the insurance company fails to follow the legal requirements outlined in the policy they wrote, and that the insured paid for, a breach of contract exists. Depending on how the breach of contract occurs, insurance bad faith practices could be a contributing factor.

Severe injuries that result from bicycle accidents often leave our clients with life-changing injuries that require long-term medical care and lengthy absences from work – if they are able to return to full-time employment at all.
Medical Malpractice
Duty — The defendant owed your loved one duty of care at the time of the fatal incident. This commonly applies in fatal cases of medical malpractice. Motorists also have a duty on the road to drive safely.
Auto Accidents
Dog Bites
Dog bites and attacks can lead to pain, injury, and even nerve damage, scarring, or disfigurement that causes life-changing circumstances that require long-term care. In some cases, dog bites can become infected, which puts the victim at risk for illnesses that require hospitalization, and in some cases can even cause death.
