Albuquerque Motorcycle Accident Lawyer
New Mexico's open roads and mild weather make Albuquerque a strong riding region, and when a driver fails to see a rider, the results are often serious. We fight the bias riders face and handle Albuquerque motorcycle accident claims.
Where Albuquerque motorcycle crashes happen
Riders face risk on I-25 and I-40 near the Big I interchange, on Sandia and foothill routes, and on busy corridors like Central and Coors where drivers turn across a rider's path or change lanes without looking.
The bias riders face
Insurers often blame the rider before the facts are in. New Mexico follows a pure comparative-fault rule, so being assigned part of the blame reduces but does not bar recovery. We build the facts — the other driver's conduct, the scene, and the evidence — to counter that bias.
Filing and care in Albuquerque
Injury lawsuits are generally handled through the Second Judicial District Court in Bernalillo County, and the New Mexico State Police or Albuquerque Police typically responds depending on where the crash happened. Because rider injuries are often severe, the University of New Mexico Hospital and prompt care matter to both health and claim.
How we help
We account for the full picture — medical care, lost income, and long-term impact — and hold the at-fault driver accountable. The review is free and confidential. Se habla español.
Frequently asked questions
The insurer says the crash was my fault. Can I still recover?
Often, yes. New Mexico follows pure comparative fault, so even if you are assigned part of the blame, your recovery is reduced by your share rather than barred.
Is lane splitting legal in New Mexico?
New Mexico does not authorize lane splitting the way California does. If an insurer raises it against you, we can explain how the facts and the law actually apply to your crash.
