The trucking company and their insurance company will also immediately investigate, and try to figure out ways to avoid responsibility. If you delay in hiring a lawyer, you may find that their insurance company has already conducted their own investigation. The trucking company may have gotten rid of driver logs, inspection records, scale tickets or other important evidence. For several reasons, the trucking company is in a hurry to repair their trucks when they are damaged in an accident. If the truck is repaired before you hire a New Mexico accident lawyer, you may have lost important physical evidence that could help in the prosecution of your case.

Most trucking accidents are caused by violations of state and federal laws and regulations. These laws are designed to ensure that trucks drive on our roads safely.

That is why you and your family need the help of Law Offices of Thell Thomas in order to fight for the justice you deserve.

Motorcycle Accidents

If you have been injured in a motorcycle versus car collision, Thell Thomas will fight to get you the medical attention you need and the monetary compensation you and your family deserve. Unfortunately, automobile drivers often fail to see motorcyclists. The motorcyclist's injuries are often catastrophic.

Insurance company adjusters often ignore the law that motorcycles and cars have the same rights on the road. The insurance company may try to blame the motorcyclist. Thell Thomas fights for the rights of New Mexico motorcyclists.

Insurance adjusters will often ignore the fact that injuries to motorcyclists are usually far worse for the motorcyclist than for the car driver or car occupants suffered. The adjusters will point out the minimal damage to the car and will try to argue that the motorcyclist should not be seriously injured.

New Mexico is a comparative fault state. This means that if the motorcyclist is partially at fault for the collision, then the motorcyclist may still be compensated for a portion of his or her injuries, if we can prove that the automobile driver was also at fault.

Insurance Bad Faith

Thell Thomas is a New Mexico Personal Injury Lawyer who sues insurance companies when they treat you unfairly.

You are responsible and purchased insurance. You did your part and paid your premiums. When you are injured and forced to make an insurance claim, the insurance company avoids responsibility and tries to avoid paying what they owe on the claim. Under New Mexico law your insurance company must treat you fairly and consider the interests of you, the policyholder, equal to its own. Your insurance company owes you a fiduciary duty.

Unfortunately, insurance companies and their lawyers try to cheat their policyholders to protect their interests and not yours. Insurance companies treat their policyholders with bad faith far too often.

Personal injury attorney Thell Thomas has a successful record of making insurance companies pay what they owe. Our team is dedicated to getting you the most money for your insurance claim. If the insurance company acts in bad faith we can make the insurance company pay punitive damages with the hope of teaching the insurance company a lesson, and get them to treat their customers fairly.

Client Reviews
★★★★★
I was referred to Thell after not making forward progress with another attorney on a personal injury claim for an auto accident in 2014. My injury was both serious and complicated, so trying to heal and simultaneously worrying about my lawsuit felt overwhelming. Thell's entry relieved this anxiety. Thell and his staff treated me with compassion while they assembled my medical history and a clear case. Everything was thoroughly explained, patiently, and every piece of advice I received was reasonable and helpful. During the deposition process I felt well prepared and supported... Adrienne B.
