3. Submitting Your Claim
We draft and file your personal injury claim with the responsible party’s insurance carrier, taking care of all documentation and time-sensitive requirements.

Common Types of Personal Injury Cases
At the Zinda Law Group, we help with all kinds of personal injury cases. Whatever damages you suffered as the result of an accident, we can help you recover the compensation you deserve.
Bike Accidents
Bicycle accidents in Las Cruces can take a number of different forms. While riding your bike, you could be injured by a collision with a car, a truck, or even another bicycle. If someone has acted in a way that caused your injuries while riding a bike, we can help you understand your rights and figure out what damages you may be entitled to claim.
Car Accidents
Our attorneys know the city of Las Cruces. They understand the complexities of car accidents in Las Cruces that can involve drivers from Texas, New Mexico, and Mexico. They understand how to handle cases involving uninsured motorists and other unique scenarios that can be common in Las Cruces.
Premises Injuries
Premises cases involve an injury to a person on someone else’s property. These can happen in hundreds of different ways but often take on the form of a slip and fall case, falling merchandise at a store, trip and fall cases, and injuries that occur at a hotel or some other property owned by a business that has a duty to keep you safe.
Pedestrian Accidents
Pedestrians in Las Cruces are susceptible to all sorts of hazards in the streets. Whether it be cars, bicycles, or even electronic scooters, pedestrians are not exempt from road injuries just because they may not be operating a motor vehicle.
Truck Accidents
Trucking accidents are some of the more complex personal injury cases. Las Cruces, being uniquely situated near Texas and Mexico, sees a lot of trucks passing through on the roadways. If you’ve been injured in a truck accident, it’s crucial that you call one of our Las Cruces personal injury attorneys quickly.
Large trucking companies have the resources to act fast in order to protect themselves in the event that a truck injured someone.
Wrongful Death Cases
Wrongful death cases are the hardest for all parties involved because there is nothing worse than losing a loved one. On a positive note, these are the cases where we know we can make the biggest difference for our clients.
Of course, no one can return your loved one to you after a wrongful death. However, we can help navigate these complex cases, get you the justice you deserve, and make sure that something like this never happens again.
Las Cruces Dog Bite and Animal Attack Cases
If you or a loved one has been attacked by a dog or other animal belonging to a neighbor, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries. This is especially true if the pet owner knew the pet had a tendency to attack people and the owner failed to adequately restrain their pet.
Damages Our Personal Injury Attorneys Can Pursue
When you work with an attorney from our firm, they’ll determine which economic and non-economic damages you should receive from a claim. They’ll also use special calculations to figure out the overall value of your personal injury claim.
Economic losses include the following:
- Past and future medical bills
- Past and future lost wages
- Damaged property
- Past and future loss of earning capacity
- Non-economic losses include the following:
- Emotional trauma and distress
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of enjoyment of life
These damages can provide the support you need to cover your losses, cope with the pain from your injuries, and deal with the emotional fallout from your accident. We understand how important it is that you receive the compensation you need to put your accident behind you, which is why we’ll work tirelessly to recover the damages you’re owed.
Wrongful Death Damages
If your loved one has passed away due to injuries suffered in an accident, you may be eligible to file a wrongful death suit. If successful, your lawsuit could yield the financial support you need to cope with your tragic loss and cover expenses related to your loved one’s passing.
Our wrongful death attorneys can guide you through the legal process with compassion and patience, ensuring all the correct steps are taken to maximize your recovery. If we win your case, you could receive any of the following damages:
- Funeral costs
- Burial expenses
- End-of-life medical care expenses
- Loss of inheritance
- Loss of financial support
- Mental anguish
- Diminished quality of life
- Loss of consortium and/or guidance
Why Taking Action Quickly Matters
If you suspect you may have grounds for a personal injury claim, moving forward without unnecessary delay can significantly strengthen your case.
New Mexico Imposes Strict Deadlines
State law typically provides a three-year window from your accident date to initiate a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline could eliminate your ability to pursue compensation entirely. A knowledgeable attorney can verify the exact time limit that applies to your specific situation.
Evidence Doesn’t Last Forever
Essential proof can disappear rapidly. Physical evidence gets discarded. Electronic records get overwritten. Witnesses relocate, memories fade, or contacts become unavailable. Bringing legal counsel on board early enables us to act swiftly to protect the evidence your claim depends on.
Insurers Start Building Their Defense Immediately
The insurance companies representing at-fault parties have strong financial incentives to minimize payouts. They frequently dispatch investigators to accident locations within hours, searching for ways to dispute liability or weaken your claim. Every day you delay hiring representation gives them additional time to strengthen their position.
The longer you wait, the more time they have to build a defense. Acting quickly protects your ability to recover what you’re owed.

FAQs
How can I tell if my situation qualifies for a personal injury claim?
A viable personal injury claim generally requires showing that another party owed you a duty of care, breached that duty, caused your injuries through that breach, and left you with measurable damages. We’ll evaluate your situation during a free consultation and give you an honest assessment.
What forms of compensation might I be able to collect?
The damages available depend on your unique circumstances. Common forms of recovery include medical bills, wage losses, property damage costs, pain and suffering, and other related losses. We’ll help you identify which damages apply to your case.
Can you assist if a family member was killed in an accident?
We handle wrongful death matters with the sensitivity and care they require. While no legal outcome can undo your loss, we can help your family hold the responsible parties accountable. We’ll shoulder the legal burden so you can focus on being with your family.
What will your legal services cost me?
Nothing upfront, and nothing at all unless we win. Our contingency fee structure means we only collect payment if we recover money for you. You take on no financial risk by working with us.
How much time should I expect my case to take?
Case duration varies based on complexity. A straightforward car accident claim might resolve within a few months, while a more intricate case involving multiple parties could take longer. We’ll provide you with a realistic estimate based on your particular circumstances.
Is there a possibility my case will require a trial?
The vast majority of personal injury claims settle through negotiation before reaching a courtroom. That said, if the insurance company won’t agree to fair compensation, we’re fully prepared to try your case before a jury.
What steps should I take immediately following an accident?
Get medical attention right away, even for injuries that seem minor. File a report with law enforcement. Document as much as you can by taking photos of the scene, the vehicles involved, and your injuries, and collect contact information from any witnesses. Then reach out to us to discuss your legal options.
How does New Mexico handle cases where I share some fault?
New Mexico follows a comparative negligence system. If you’re found partially at fault, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. However, you can still recover damages as long as your fault doesn’t exceed the other party’s. We can help you understand how this rule might apply to your case.
What’s the process for getting started?
Call us at 800-863-5312 or complete our online form to schedule your free consultation. We’re available around the clock to answer your questions and help you understand your path forward.
