Hobbs Personal Injury Lawyer

Being injured in an accident is one of the most stressful experiences that you may ever go through. The aftermath of any type of accident for which you were not at fault can be complicated by things like medical bills and lost wages, especially if the at-fault party’s insurer is refusing to pay up. If you’ve been harmed through no fault of your own, a Hobbs personal injury lawyer from Buckingham & Vega Law Firm can help you secure the compensation you need to make the fullest possible recovery.

Why Work With a Hobbs Personal Injury Lawyer?

In most situations when filing a personal injury claim, you will be pursuing compensation from the negligent party’s insurance company. Insurance companies are for-profit businesses with their eye on increasing the bottom line, which means that paying out your claim will never be a priority. When you try to recover compensation for damages that you are rightfully owed, the insurance company will most likely try to pressure you into accepting far less than what you need to make a full recovery.

Having a Hobbs personal injury lawyer on your side means that you won’t be pressured to settle too quickly for too little. Buckingham & Vega Law Firm is well known as a powerful advocate for injury victims, so insurance companies take us seriously when we refuse to settle for anything less than what our clients deserve. We believe our case results speak for themselves, as we have helped recover significant financial compensation for victims who have been harmed by the negligent and wrongful actions of other people.

Why File a Personal Injury Lawsuit?

Recovering from a severe injury takes time, rest, and, perhaps most importantly, financial resources. Health care is not cheap, and the accompanying medical bills for doctor visits and surgeries often outpace what injury victims can afford. A personal injury claim may be necessary if you were physically, emotionally, and financially harmed because of another person’s or entity’s wrongful actions.

To file a personal injury claim, you must have suffered a physical, emotional, or psychological injury as a result of the accident. Our Hobbs personal injury attorneys work with anyone who has been wrongfully harmed in an accident, including victims who are suffering from:

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
Broken bones
Fractures
Neck injuries
Back injuries
Spinal cord injuries
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
Loss of limb (amputation)
Burns
Disfigurement
Jaw injuries
Vision loss

Compensation in a Personal Injury Case

Compensation awarded in a personal injury case is intended to cover any financial damages you may have suffered due to the at-fault party’s negligent or reckless actions. While financial rewards will vary depending on the case, compensation can typically be broken down into two categories—economic and non-economic damages.

Economic damages refer to the calculable losses that have a direct financial amount, such as the bills you incur when seeking medical care.
Non-economic damages refer to damages without a direct financial component that still have a detrimental effect on your life.

Your attorney will advise you of what damages you are able to pursue in your own personal injury claim, which may include some from the following list:

Medical bills, both current and future
Lost wages
Reduced earning capacity
Property damage
Emotional or psychological trauma
Physical pain and suffering
Loss of companionship or consortium
Loss of enjoyment in life

There is a third type of compensation that is rare in personal injury cases—punitive damages. Punitive damages are used to punish the at-fault party for particularly egregious or dangerous behavior, such as drinking and driving.

Did an accident permanently alter the course of your life? You do not have to suffer alone. The personal injury lawyers at Buckingham & Vega Law Firm are here to help you navigate your legal options for recovering financial damages.
