What to Do After a Car Accident in Albuquerque

  5. Keep every medical bill, repair estimate, and record of missed work.

Personal Injury FAQs

Do I need a lawyer after a minor car accident?

Not every fender-bender needs one. If you were hurt, missed work, or the insurer disputes who was at fault, a free consultation will tell you where you stand before you sign anything or accept an offer.

What is my personal injury case worth?

There is no standard number. Value depends on your medical costs, lost income, how serious and lasting the injury is, who was at fault, and the insurance coverage available. We review those facts with you during the free consultation.

Can you help if I was hurt at work?

Most work injuries go through workers’ compensation. If a third party also caused the injury, you may have a separate injury claim. See our page on workers’ compensation attorneys in Albuquerque.
