New Mexico Statute of Limitations New Mexico Death Accident

New Mexico has a “statutes of limitations” that set a certain time line for the right of someone to bring a lawsuit. These statutes do not apply to car insurance claims since they require you to make a claim within a reasonable time of the accident, which is typically within a matter of days or even a few weeks. The statutes states that a person has three years to file for personal injury caused by another person from the date of the accident. To file a claim for vehicle or other personal property that was damaged, you have four years to complete this. New Mexico follows a “pure comparative negligence” rule, which means recover from the damages that were received in the accident are possible, but that may be reduced if you shared any fault to cause the accident.
