Roswell, New Mexico Personal Injury Lawyers Fighting to Protect You

Every day, we put our trust in others. On the road, at places of business, and especially in the doctor’s office, we trust that others will act in a safe and responsible manner. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. Poor choices are made or accidents happen, and injury victims are left to bear the consequences of someone else’s carelessness. During these difficult times, it is natural to have many questions and worries. How will you get medical care? How will you pay for the care? What will happen if you can’t work? What rights do you even have?

At The Injury and Disability Law Center, the experienced legal team led by personal injury attorneys Jeremy Worley and Josh Worley are here to help answer these questions and more. Our lawyers tenaciously represent injury victims and fight to help them obtain the medical care and compensation they deserve.

Types of Cases Our Roswell Personal Injury Lawyers Handle

A New Mexico personal injury case is designed to protect individuals when another person’s actions (or failure to act) cause them harm. These types of cases can arise from many different situations. At The Injury and Disability Law Center, we assist clients in a wide variety of circumstances, including those facing issues related to:

• Auto Accidents – Every year in New Mexico, thousands of people are injured and killed in car wrecks, accidents involving big trucks, and motorcycle accidents. Drivers who are distracted, impaired, reckless, or simply not paying attention can and should be held accountable for their careless behavior behind the wheel.
   
• Medical Malpractice – Patients put their very lives in the hands of medical providers every day, and those providers should take that responsibility very seriously. When your doctor, nurse, or other medical professional causes your suffering because they fail to meet the standards of care, you and others can be protected.
   
• Premises Liability – Business and property owners have a duty to make sure their properties are safe. Slip and falls, dog bites, inadequate security, and more can be cause for a liability claim.
   
• Work Injuries - After being injured at work, you need to understand your legal rights and options. Our attorneys can help you navigate a workers' compensation claim to ease the burden of medical bills and lost wages from missing work. 
   
• Wrongful Death Claims – Losing a loved one can be devastating, especially if it is caused by someone's careless actions. Surviving family members may be entitled to compensation from the at-fault party through the filing of a wrongful death action.
