Synopsis

Every year, thousands of New Mexicans are injured in falls on someone else's property. A wet floor at a grocery store. A cracked sidewalk outside a restaurant. Ice on the steps of a government building. What happens next catches most people off guard. The property owner's insurance company isn't on your side. Their job is to resolve your claim for as little as possible - and in fall cases, they have a built-in advantage. Unlike car accidents, where fault is often obvious, premises cases are murkier. The insurance company will almost always argue that you share the blame. You should have been watching where you were going. You should have seen the hazard. Your shoes weren't appropriate. These arguments have real traction with juries. And most people facing them have no idea what they're up against. This book changes that. Written by Albuquerque attorney Kenneth H. Stalter, Slips, Trips, and Falls in New Mexico walks you through every stage of a premises liability claim - from what to do in the minutes after a fall, to finding the right attorney, to understanding how liability works, to navigating settlement negotiations and the courtroom. You'll learn why fall cases are harder than car accidents, how to identify every party who might be responsible, what your case is realistically worth, and how to avoid the mistakes that sink claims before they start. This isn't a book of legal theory. It's a practical guide for real people facing a process they didn't ask for - written in plain English, focused on New Mexico law, and built to turn readers into informed participants in their own cases.
