How we work in Westside

• Car Accident Claims

  Car accident claims on the Westside still live or die on liability and a bodily injury record. A demand letter aimed at policy limits comes after the medicine is documented, not after the first adjuster call. Contingency fee is how that sequence gets funded.

• Truck Accident Claims

  Truck accident claims on Westside corridors often involve commercial liability and higher policy limits than a private auto file. Catastrophic injury makes the coverage chart more important than the neighborhood. Who owned the truck and who dispatched it are the first questions.

• Motorcycle Accident Claims

  Motorcycle accident claims on the Westside are negligence and bodily injury files. Helmet arguments and lane-splitting stories show up whether they belong or not. Contingency fee keeps you from paying hourly to correct the other driver’s version.

• Rideshare Accident Claims

  Uber accident claims and Lyft accident claims on the Westside follow the same coverage ladder as anywhere in Albuquerque: personal policy, then rideshare policy, then policy limits. Save the trip receipt. It is how the carrier decides which layer is even open.

• Pedestrian & Bicycle Accident Claims

  Pedestrian and bicycle accident claims on the Westside are bodily injury cases with pain and suffering when the records support it. Lighting and road design can be part of the liability story. They are not a substitute for medical proof.

• Slip and Fall Accidents

  Slip and fall accidents in Westside stores and apartments are premises liability. You control where you treat. If a lawyer’s office is pushing a clinic you did not choose, that is a red flag, not a service. Medical documentation still has to be real and necessary.

• Uninsured & Underinsured Motorist Claims

  Uninsured and underinsured motorist claims are the core Westside confusion: UM coverage when the other driver has nothing, UIM coverage when they have too little. You are claiming against your own policy, and that carrier still has an incentive to minimize payout. Separate counsel exists for that reason.

• Hit and Run Accident Claims

  Hit and run accident claims on the Westside frequently become UM claims. Bodily injury treatment should start even if no driver was identified. A demand letter to your uninsured motorist carrier is how those files move.

• Wrongful Death Claims

  Wrongful death claims are contingency fee damages cases. Families on the Westside need a coverage map — at-fault policy, UM, UIM — not a speech. If limits are insufficient, the next question is whether any other collectible source exists, not whether the other driver’s insurer "owes more than the policy."

• Free Consultation

  A free consultation can be an online appointment from the Westside. Ask how the contingency fee is calculated, whether costs come off the top, and how medical liens would be handled. Those questions belong before you sign, not after a settlement draft arrives.

• Personal Injury

  Personal injury on the Westside includes people who think the case is too small. Soft tissue injury, chiropractic treatment, and physical therapy records are still a claim when the crash caused them. The case evaluation should say so plainly, including when policy limits make the ceiling obvious.
