While plane crashes in New Mexico are relatively uncommon, occurring at a low rate per year, they remain a concerning issue. The year 2021 witnessed 17 accidents, including four fatal injury incidents and three cases of serious injuries. The figures for 2022 were slightly lower, with 16 accidents recorded, two of which were fatal and two resulted in serious injuries. In 2023, there were a total of 15 reported accidents, out of which two were fatal and three resulted in catastrophic injuries. [1]
Aviation accidents and injuries in New Mexico can be attributed to several causes. Some common causes include:
Establishing fault in aviation accident injury cases is vital for determining liability and ensuring justice for the victims. There are multiple factors that can contribute to aviation accidents, including pilot error, lack of maintenance, and defective products.
To establish fault, a thorough investigation is paramount. Gathering evidence from reliable sources, such as the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), is essential. These organizations conduct extensive investigations into aviation accidents, analyzing flight data, maintenance records, pilot qualifications, and more.
Consulting with expert witnesses who have specialized knowledge in aviation accidents can also provide valuable insights. These experts can analyze the evidence and provide professional opinions on the causes of the accident and the party at fault.
In New Mexico, the specific time frame within which you must file a personal injury claim is three years from the date of the accident. [2] This means that you or your family have three years from the accident date to file a lawsuit related to the aviation accident. Consulting with our flight injury lawyer can ensure compliance with the specific time limits in New Mexico.
As a victim of aviation accident in New Mexico, you may be entitled to various types of compensation for your economic and non-economic damages. These compensations aim to address the physical, emotional, and financial damages sustained by you and your family.
One important aspect of compensation is medical bills. You may be entitled to reimbursement for medical expenses related to your medical treatment, including surgeries, rehabilitation, medication, and ongoing therapies.
Lost wages are another significant consideration. If you are unable to work due to your injuries, you may be entitled to compensation for the income you have lost.
In cases of wrongful death claims of your loved one, funeral expenses are a vital part of compensation. As a surviving family member, you may be entitled to reimbursement for funeral costs, ensuring that you are not financially burdened during the difficult time.
Pain and disability experienced by you can also be compensated. You may be entitled to fair compensation for physical and emotional distress, suffering, and disability resulting from the accident.
Other compensatory factors may include property damages, loss of consortium, loss of enjoyment, and punitive damages in specific cases involving negligence or misconduct.
Aviation accidents can encompass a range of circumstances, including helicopter accidents and private plane accidents, each with its own set of legal issues and potential risks. Here is the most common types of aviation accidents that occur:
