Who Is Legally Liable for Mariarty Truck Crashes?
Various parties could potentially be liable for a truck crash. The truck driver could have driven carelessly or in violation of federal trucking regulations.
The trucking company can be held legally responsible for the actions of its drivers, regardless of whether they are classified as employees or independent contractors. They could also be held responsible for their own forms of negligence, such as negligent hiring, supervision, or maintenance of their trucks.
Other parties could be responsible for the accident, depending on the circumstances. For example, a cargo loading company could be responsible if they overloaded cargo or loaded it unsafely onto the truck, causing the truck to tip over or spill cargo. A truck or parts manufacturer could be responsible if a defective auto part contributed to the accident.
How Long Do I Have to File a Personal Injury Lawsuit After a Truck Crash in New Mexico?
In New Mexico, you generally have three years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. While this might seem like a long time, it could take you considerable time to recover from your injuries and for your lawyer to build a solid legal claim, so don’t delay in seeking immediate legal assistance.
