Who Can File a Personal Injury Claim? Texas & New Mexico Law
Catastrophic Personal Injury
A personal injury is a serious injury to the spine, spinal cord, or brain, and may also include skull or spinal fractures. A catastrophic injury can require a lifetime of medical care, or repeated surgeries. Injuries that are life threatening can cause disability, significant suffering and premature death of the victim.
Who can file a personal injury claim?
A claim can be filed by the person who was driving a car that was hit by another, or the person who slipped and fell on the puddle of water in the store, or the person who was bitten by the loose dog, as certain examples. The person who sustained the injury usually brings the claim. But sometimes there are distinctive personal injury claims brought by someone other than the person who was directly involved in the accident.
Do You Need a Lawyer to File a Personal Injury Claim?
Whether a claim is filed with an insurance company after an injury that is covered by a policy, or a suit filed in civil court after an accident, you’re free to represent yourself in court, and to negotiate on your own behalf with the insurance company.
However, it is also important and in your interests to obtain consultation and the help of an experienced personal injury lawyer to get a clearer view of your options and the best way to protect your rights.
When Should You Contact a Personal Injury Lawyer
If you have suffered an injury in an auto accident or due to the negligence of another person, you should contact a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible. Experienced personal injury attorneys collect evidence for safekeeping, contact the people involved, and ensure you take the action that protects your interest. Consider hiring an attorney also if you believe that someone will file a personal injury lawsuit against you due to an injury that occurred on your property due to your negligence.
What Injury Compensation Or Damages Am I Entitled To Claim For?
If you have sustained an injury at work, in an auto accident due to the negligence, or wrongful act of another, you may be entitled to the following payments;
General Damages – This category of damages is for the pain and stress suffered because of your injuries, and how they have affected your pre-injury way of life. In New Mexico, claims for General Damages in personal injury claims are generally controlled by legislation which specifies limits that can be claimed.
Loss of past and future income – If you have had to quit your job due to your injuries or loss of income due to this, then you are entitled to claim for such loss. You are also entitled to claim a future loss if the loss of income carries into the future.
Past and future medical and rehabilitation expenses – if you have incurred expenses for medical or rehabilitation treatment or any other substantial expenses due to your injuries, then you are entitled to claim compensation for those expenses.
How long does it take to file a claim?
Generally, with some exceptions, a personal injury claim can be made up to three years after the accident or incident that caused injury and was due to negligence.
How long does a personal injury claim take to settle?
Personal injury claims vary broadly in their nature depending on the type of accident such as an accident at work, or an auto accident and the injuries which have been sustained, which varies widely e.g. broken bones, head injuries and fatalities.
The stages of a claim include Preparing a Submittal Package, Negotiating, litigation. There is no fixed time on how long a case can take to conclude. There are many variables involved and the most significant variable is the time taken for the client to recovery from the injuries totally, and how long it takes the insurance company to make a proper settlement offer.

How To Hire An Attorney In 4 Steps
It is important to make careful considerations when hiring an attorney to represent you. Read the top 4 tips below in order to make sure you hire the appropriate attorney for your unique situation.
1) Do I need a Lawyer?
First, ask yourself whether you need a lawyer and think through your problem and issues.
- Think about whether you can solve the problem on your own or if you truly need a lawyer. Sometimes, this will be easy. For example, if you are charged with a crime, you NEED a lawyer and sooner rather than later. Other problems won’t be so immediate, however.
- Numerous lawyers provide free consultations on initial visits, so take advantage of that consultation to further define the problem(s) and determine if you need a lawyer.
2) Finding the Right Lawyer for You
Not every lawyer is going to be a good fit for you, and you won’t be a good fit for every lawyer.
- Ask your friends and family for referrals for a lawyer who is reputable.
- Research online, including google searches and review the lawyer’s website to determine what his/her experience level is and get a feel for the lawyer’s background.
- Consider interviewing 2-3 lawyers before you make your decision, to decide who seems like the best “fit” for you, will be most committed to your case, is competent, and will have the time to help you.
3) Hiring a Lawyer
Relying on referrals and your own research, select a few lawyers who seem appropriate for your situation and conduct interviews.
- Before interviewing, ask the lawyer or staff whether you can have a free initial consultation.
- During the interview, get the lawyer’s thoughts on your situation, his/her experience and familiarity with the type of problem, and if you are potentially interested, ask for an engagement letter describing the scope of the lawyer’s services, and how costs and fees are determined.
- Make sure you have a clear understanding of the role of the attorney, and the fees and costs you will be charged is very important at the start of the relationship.
- Carefully review the engagement letter, and if you have questions, make sure you ask them and get a clear understanding of the terms of the representation.
4) During the Representation
Make sure you establish clear lines of communication with the lawyer and staff as well as what method of communication is best. Lawyers are sometimes in court, or out of town, and so you will need to communicate with staff members as well. If you have questions or problems, be proactive and make an appointment to speak about them
You are paying for the service and deserve to be kept apprised of developments in your case. You should make sure you invest time and effort into the lawyer/client relationship so that the lawyer and his/her office do a great job representing your interests.
