Frequently Asked Questions
Can I file my personal injury case in Doña Ana County even if the accident happened elsewhere?
Venue rules in New Mexico allow cases to be filed in the county where the defendant resides, where the injury occurred, or sometimes where you reside. If you live in Las Cruces and were injured in Sierra or Luna County, there may be options. Alex will advise you on the most strategic venue for your specific case.

What is the deadline to file a personal injury lawsuit in New Mexico?
Three years from the date of the accident or injury.
