When You’re Frustrated, We’ve Got Your Back
Insurance companies are in the business of making money not paying it out. An adjuster’s job is essentially to find a way to underpay or deny your claim. To make personal injury matters even more complicated, insurers have their own way of doing things that is not very clear to outsiders.
Attorney Aaron Garrett began his career at a major insurance defense firm in New Mexico. He got an inside look at the way in which insurance companies approach a case. He knows the factors they consider and how they interpret that evidence. When building your case, he can anticipate their moves before they make them. We will also handle all communications and document exchanges with them, eliminating stress and headache for you.

Frequently Asked Questions About Personal Injury Claims
After an injury, you may have questions about what to do next. Our personal injury lawyers at Garrett Law are here to answer your questions and guide you through the claims process. In the meantime, please see some answers to frequently asked questions.
What kinds of damages can you recover in a New Mexico personal injury lawsuit?
In New Mexico, you can recover economic and noneconomic damages in a personal injury lawsuit. Economic damages include compensation for your medial expenses, lost wages and any other specific financial losses caused by the accident. Noneconomic damages include pain and suffering and mental anguish.
Pain and suffering accounts for the excruciating pain and emotional anguish you suffer after an accident. When considering the damage amount for pain and suffering, the court will consider how much the injury impacts your life, work, relationship and daily routine.
Who pays medical expenses after a personal injury in New Mexico?
In New Mexico, as an at-fault state, the party that caused the accident must pay for the victim’s medical bills and losses. This means that the other party’s insurance company will pay for your treatment. However, it is up to the injured party to prove that the other party is at fault.
