Car Accident cases in Clovis
Car crashes happen every day across Clovis and Curry County, from busy surface streets like Prince Street, Mabry Drive, and 21st Street to high-speed stretches of US 60/84 and US 70. With Cannon Air Force Base traffic and dairy-freight corridors, serious collisions are common — and nearly one in four New Mexico drivers carries no insurance at all, which makes many Clovis crashes an insurance fight from day one.
If another driver was at fault, you may be able to recover for medical bills, lost income, and more — and if that driver was uninsured, your own uninsured motorist coverage may step in. A participating New Mexico law firm may review your Clovis crash and explain your options.

Why quick action matters in New Mexico
New Mexico generally allows three years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit — but claims against a government entity require written notice within just 90 days under the New Mexico Tort Claims Act.
