Hobbs New Mexico Lawyers

Our Legal Services

Here are some of the services that you can expect from our Hobbs, NM, lawyers:

Injury Litigation

Truck Wrecks

Texas is known to be the leading state when it comes to commercial truck accident fatalities. Wrecks involving these vehicles often lead to horrifying accident scenes, mainly because of their large size and weight. While most truck transportation goes off without an issue, commercial truck accidents kill thousands and injure over 100,000 people yearly. In fact, in 2020, 4,014 people died in large truck accidents.

Truck drivers and their employers have a duty to follow state and federal traffic rules to protect themselves and other people on the road. Nix Patterson’s legal team is ready to look into the details of your Hobbs truck accident case, establish what caused your accident as well as who is at fault, and determine the best strategy to resolve your case.

Oilfield Injuries

Oil and gas work is one of the most dangerous jobs in the country. Every day, oilfield workers face risks and dangerous situations that can lead to accidents and injuries. If the injuries are severe, they may not only lead to hefty medical bills but also substantially affect the victim’s future.

If you have been injured in an oil field, you need Hobbs accident lawyers to help you understand your rights and options. Nix Patterson has successfully litigated numerous injury cases in New Mexico and recovered millions for our affected clients.

Dangerous Drugs and Medical Devices

When medical devices or pharmaceutical drugs do not work as they should, they cause severe or life-threatening issues. A product is deemed defective if it has a design error, manufacturing flaw, or labeling/marketing defect like missing instructions or safety warnings.

The most common types of defective medical devices and drugs include birth control pills, birth control devices, defibrillators, knee replacements, metal hip replacements, drug-coated stents, transvaginal mesh, and others.

The team at Nix Patterson works hard to represent people who have experienced losses because of the fraudulent or negligent conduct of product manufacturers, distributors, and other involved parties. From single-plaintiff litigation to mass torts and class action lawsuits, we have the experience and resources to pursue such cases.

Catastrophic Injuries

If you or someone you love has been through a catastrophic injury after a traumatic event like an auto accident, a slip and fall accident, or after using a defective product, then you know firsthand how such a severe injury can completely alter one’s life. A catastrophic injury such as a brain injury, severe burns, or a spinal cord injury can be extremely debilitating, leaving you struggling to cope with the aftermath.

If someone else’s negligence led to your catastrophic injury, you don’t have to face this challenge alone. The catastrophic injury attorneys at Nix Patterson are here to help. We will carefully evaluate your case and guide you through the legal process, ensuring that you understand how insurance companies and courts handle catastrophic injuries in Hobbs, NM.

We believe you deserve justice, and our goal is to provide a solution that will best help you move forward.

Sexual Abuse

According to the Rape, Abuse, & Incest National Network (RAINN), sexual abuse is defined as any form of “sexual contact or behavior that occurs without explicit consent of the victim.” This may involve various actions, including sexual assault, rape, and unwanted touching. Those who commit sexual abuse not only face criminal repercussions but are also subject to civil liability.

At Nix Patterson, we understand that the trauma resulting from sexual abuse can’t be reversed, but we firmly believe that the victims have the right to have their experiences recognized and acted upon. While financial compensation can’t eliminate the devastating consequences of sexual abuse, we hope we can help sexual abuse victims embark on their journeys to recovery.
