Accidental injury is the third leading cause of death in New Mexico, according to a 2017 evaluation by the New Mexico Department of Health. Accidents can happen anytime, anywhere, but what happens when you are injured through no fault of your own? If the reckless or negligent behaviors of someone else caused you to be injured, you may be able to pursue a personal injury claim.

How Do You Prove Liability in a Personal Injury Case?
An incredibly important step to recovering compensation for your injuries is proving that the negligent party is liable for the harm you have suffered. Without liability, there is no claim for damages.
Negligence refers to a failure to follow rules or requirements, resulting in injury to another person(s). For negligent individuals or parties to be held liable for damages in a personal injury lawsuit, you must prove the following elements of your case:
- You are owed a duty of care by the defendant (negligent party)
- The defendant breached that duty of care by acting unreasonably or recklessly
- The actions of the defendant caused your injuries
- You suffered damages
If your case meets all of the above requirements, you can file a personal injury claim to pursue damages after an accident.

What Damages Can I Receive from a Personal Injury Claim?
When someone is injured due to negligence, they can file a personal injury claim to pursue damages. In these cases, damages include the financial compensation a victim needs in order to afford medical expenses, repair their property, and make up for missed time at work. It can also include other losses that are not as tangible.
Economic Damages
Economic damages refer to the financial losses that a victim of negligence experienced when they were injured. The most common types of economic damages that you can recover in a personal injury claim include:
- Medical expenses related to your injury
- Lost wages from missing work while injured
- Property damage such as to your home or vehicle
- Loss of income where the injury precludes you from ever returning to your previous job
- Long-term medical care for permanent disability
Non-Economic Damages
Non-economic damages are intended to compensate an injury victim for pain, suffering, and other harm they suffered as a result of another's negligence or wrongdoing. Some examples of non-economic damages that you may be able to claim include:
- Pain, suffering, and mental anguish
- Loss of quality of life for permanent, catastrophic injuries
- Loss of consortium for you or your spouse
Unlike most other states, New Mexico does not place a cap on the amount of non-economic damages you can receive. The decision is left up to the jury when deciding your case.
