Personal Injury Cases We Handle in Albuquerque
Car Accidents
Liability is often the easy part of an Albuquerque crash. The hard part comes later, when the driver who hit you turns out to carry no insurance at all, or a minimum policy that runs out before your first hospital bill is settled.
Truck & 18-Wheeler Accidents
A collision with a commercial truck near the I-25 and I-40 interchange is one of the few Albuquerque crashes where the at-fault side almost certainly has real coverage sitting behind it. That changes the work.
Motorcycle Accidents
Riders on Tramway, in the East Mountains and on the interstates take the worst of a crash they did not cause, and the driver who pulled out in front of them is frequently the least insured person on the road. A motorcycle injury climbs past a minimum policy quickly.
Pedestrian Accidents
People walking on Central Avenue and the wide arterials east of downtown get hit at speeds that cause hospital-level injuries, and the drivers who hit them are not always insured. If the driver leaves, or is found and has nothing, your own auto policy can often still respond even though you were on foot when it happened.
Bicycle Accidents
Cyclists using the bosque path crossings and the painted lanes on Lead and Coal are exposed twice over. The impact does the obvious damage, and then the driver turns out to be carrying nothing.
Slip & Fall / Premises
Property owners have to keep a store, an apartment landing or a parking lot in reasonably safe condition. Whether that becomes a claim worth bringing depends less on the hazard than on the treatment you actually needed.
Rideshare (Uber/Lyft) Accidents
Whether an Uber or Lyft crash reaches the platform's coverage depends on what the app was doing at that moment. Off, waiting for a request, or carrying a passenger are three different answers.
Dog Bites
A dog bite claim is only as good as the policy behind the dog. Most are paid through a homeowner or renter policy, which is why the first question is usually whose house the animal lives at.
Wrongful Death
Losing someone in a crash caused by another driver puts a family in the hardest version of the coverage problem. The loss is total and the policy that caused it may be the smallest one on the road.
Brain & Head Injuries
A head injury is the point where a minimum policy stops being an abstraction. Treatment, imaging and time away from work can pass those limits within weeks, and nobody warns you while it is happening.
Spinal Cord Injuries
Spinal injuries produce the widest gap between what a case is worth and what is actually collectible. Surgery, rehabilitation and permanent limits on what you can lift do not shrink to fit the at-fault driver's limits.
Drunk Driving Accidents
An impaired driver is rarely a well-insured driver. Fault is usually not in dispute after an arrest, which is exactly why families are caught off guard when the payable coverage turns out to be almost nothing.
Bus Accidents
Crashes involving ABQ Ride buses, school buses and charter coaches sit outside the usual coverage problem. A public agency is self-insured rather than uninsured, which sounds better and is not simpler.
Albuquerque Personal Injury Lawyers helps accident victims across Albuquerque, NM and central New Mexico get a free case review from an experienced personal injury attorney.
If you were hurt in a car accident, a truck or 18-wheeler crash, a motorcycle wreck, a slip and fall, or any accident that was not your fault, you may be owed money for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Answer a few quick questions and we connect you with a lawyer who can review your case at no cost.
You pay nothing up front. Personal injury attorneys work on contingency, which means there is no fee unless you win. Insurance companies have teams of adjusters trained to pay you as little as possible, and a lawyer levels the field. New Mexico also sets strict deadlines to file a claim, so it costs nothing to see if you qualify — and the sooner you start, the better. Se habla español.
What Albuquerque Customers Say
After my accident I had no idea where to start. I filled out the form and had a lawyer calling me the same day. Free, no pressure, and they handled everything with the insurance.
Got rear-ended by an 18-wheeler and the trucking company was already calling me. They connected me with an attorney fast who took over completely. Huge relief.
Simple and quick. Answered a few questions and got connected with a real personal injury lawyer who explained my options for free. Se habla español, which made it easy for my mom.

About Albuquerque Personal Injury Lawyers
Albuquerque Personal Injury Lawyers is a free service that connects accident victims across Bernalillo County and the wider central New Mexico region with experienced personal injury attorneys.
We are not a law firm and we do not provide legal advice — what we do is make it fast and simple to get a free case review from a lawyer who can look at your claim, so you are not left guessing after an accident that was not your fault.
With more than 560,000 residents and a median household income near $62,000, Albuquerque sees heavy daily traffic where Interstate 25 and Interstate 40 cross at the Big I, along Coors Boulevard and Paseo del Norte, and through neighborhoods from Old Town and Nob Hill to the Northeast Heights — and serious wrecks happen every day.
After a serious accident, the last thing you should be doing is fighting an insurance company alone. Their adjusters do this every day and are trained to pay as little as possible. The attorneys we connect you with handle car, truck, motorcycle, bicycle, pedestrian, rideshare, slip-and-fall, and wrongful-death claims on contingency, which means there is no fee unless you win.
New Mexico's statute of limitations generally gives injury victims three years to file, so it is smart to have your case reviewed early while evidence is still fresh.
Founded in 1706 along the Rio Grande and incorporated as a city in 1891, Albuquerque today stretches from the bosque up to the Sandia Mountains and the Sandia Peak Tramway, past the University of New Mexico and Balloon Fiesta Park. We help injured people throughout the metro and nearby communities like Rio Rancho, Los Lunas, Bernalillo, and Corrales.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to talk to a lawyer?
Nothing. A case review is completely free, and personal injury attorneys work on contingency — there is no fee unless you win. You pay nothing up front.
Do I even have a case?
If you were injured in an accident that was not your fault — a car, truck, motorcycle, bicycle, pedestrian, rideshare, or slip-and-fall accident — you may have a claim. The fastest way to find out is to answer a few questions and let a lawyer review it for free.
How long do I have to file a claim in New Mexico?
New Mexico's statute of limitations gives most injury victims three years from the date of the accident to file, and it can be shorter for claims against a government entity. Waiting also makes evidence harder to gather, so it is wise to see if you qualify as soon as possible.
What if I was partly at fault?
You may still recover money even if you were partly at fault. New Mexico follows a pure comparative negligence rule, which reduces a recovery by your share of fault rather than barring it entirely, so it is worth having a lawyer review the details.
Do you help Spanish speakers?
Yes. New Mexico is a bilingual state, and se habla español — the attorneys we connect you with can review your case in Spanish or English, at no cost to you.
Are you a law firm?
No. We are not a law firm and we do not give legal advice. We are a free service that connects accident victims in Albuquerque with experienced local personal injury attorneys who can review your case and explain your options.
