Do I Have a Personal Injury Claim?
To successfully recover damages in a personal injury lawsuit, four elements must be established. These include:
- The defendant owed you a duty of care. For example, if you were harmed by a truck driver, you may argue that the motorist had a duty to obey traffic regulations.
- The defendant breached their duty by acting negligently. For instance, if you were injured in a truck accident because the driver ran a red light, you may argue that the operator failed to uphold their duty to respect the safety of other drivers.
- The defendant’s negligence directly caused the accident. You must establish the defendant’s behavior as the “proximate cause” of your injuries. In other words, you must prove that the defendant’s actions are responsible for the accident.
In personal injury law, the plaintiff bears the burden of proof. This means that as the injured party, you are responsible for proving liability by a preponderance of the evidence (e.g., that the defendant is “more likely than not” liable for your injuries).
Do I Need a Personal Injury Lawyer?
Establishing negligence in any personal injury claim can be challenging, especially without an in-depth understanding of New Mexico law. Remember, the mere existence of your injuries isn’t sufficient to recover compensation in court. Forging your right to experienced representation before filing can result in your claim being dismissed, robbing you of the justice you deserve.
Why hire Simon Perdue? With decades of experience, our team is well equipped to help with:
- Filing your claim with the appropriate court.
- Building you a robust, well-fortified claim with strong evidence.

- Utilizing our vast network of connections to arrange expert testimonies, witness interviews, and other valuable resources to support your claim.
As former defense lawyers, our team is familiar with our opponents’ weak spots and “pressure points. Our attorneys bring a unique skillset and invaluable knowledge to the table to fiercely protect your rights against large companies and entities hoping to evade a fair payout, giving you peace of mind that your best interests are understood and prioritized.
