Las Cruces Personal Injury Lawyer
If you have been in an accident caused by someone else's negligence, it is only fair that you receive full and fair compensation for your medical bills, lost earnings and all other damages that you are entitled to receive from the matter. You hope the insurance company responsible for covering the negligent party will step up and offer you fair money damages, but you may have already learned that insurance adjusters are paid to keep their settlements low. It doesn't make them bad people. It is the way our system of paying insurance claims works in Texas and New Mexico.
I am civil litigation attorney Charles Ruhmann. I opened my personal injury and employment litigation practice with a single philosophy: People deserve a voice for justice. Too often, the plaintiffs' voice is drowned out by insurance companies that can afford teams of defense lawyers, downplaying the severity of the injury, blaming the victim for shared responsibility and putting their own spin on the facts. Standing up for yourself in our adversarial system of civil litigation is nearly impossible without the strength and commitment of an experienced, knowledgeable trial lawyer.
I work directly with each of my clients throughout the case. . I am responsive to my clients' needs and concerns, and remain approachable and personable throughout. After all, your case is about you. As my client, you deserve the highest levels of personal service and attention.
I Stick to My Word
Perhaps the biggest complaint I hear from clients is that their former client backed away from a promise to fight for a certain settlement amount or resolution. I am fair about my evaluation of what a personal injury claim or employment litigation case might return in compensation. The truth is the large majority of civil litigation cases settle out of court. Occasionally, multimillion dollar jury verdicts make the news, but they are few and far between. Simply put: Every case must be handled on its own merit, and plaintiffs must show actual financial and punitive damages equal to the amount being sought. I work hard to thoroughly investigate and prepare every case for maximum money damages, but making an empty promise about winning a large jury verdict is unethical and unfair to you.
