Work Injury FAQ
Common questions
Is this a law firm?
No. NM Legal Help is a legal advertising website. It is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. Your inquiry may be shared with a participating New Mexico law firm for review.
What does a case review cost?
Requesting a case review through this website is free. A participating law firm will explain any fees during your consultation.
How long do I have to report a work injury in New Mexico?
New Mexico requires written notice of a work injury to your employer within 15 days of when you knew or should have known about it, and a claim is generally filed with the Workers' Compensation Administration within one year after the employer or insurer fails or refuses to pay. This is general information, not legal advice. A participating law firm can explain the deadlines that apply to you.
What's the difference between workers' comp and a lawsuit?
Comp is a no-fault benefits system through your employer's insurer; a lawsuit targets a negligent third party — like a driver or another contractor — and can recover losses comp doesn't cover. Some injuries support both. A participating law firm can explain which apply.
