INTRODUCTION
Personal Injury Lawyer Albuquerque, New Mexico
Hi, I’m Josh Wood, and I’m a personal injury attorney in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I am proud to be a gringo who fights for Hispanic families in Albuquerque. I’ve worked in prisons and defended insurers, I’ve secured large settlements for victims of car accidents and other acts of negligence, and now my goal is to use all of that experience to help you win.
Most of our team speaks Spanish, and all of us know what it means to protect family. And when you hire El Gringo Law, you become part of mine. When it seems like everything is against you—from the gringo cops to the gringo judge and the jury full of gringos—I want to be the gringo who’s on your side, the one who listens to you and fights with you.
Our Step-by-Step Process
I was their defense. Today I’m your offense.
One of the most common mistakes people make after suffering a personal injury is thinking the insurance company is going to solve all their problems.
And look, we get it. You’re angry. You’re frustrated. And you’re losing money by the day because you can’t work due to an injury you suffered that wasn’t even your fault.
It would be great if someone would come along and fix this problem for you – and someone can – but it’s not the insurance company. The only thing they care about is their bottom line, which means paying you the least amount of money, even when you deserve more.
When you need someone in your corner who gets it, and who cares about your situation, that’s not the insurance company. That’s El Gringo Law. Contact a Personal Injury Lawyer in Albuquerque today to discuss your case and learn how we can help you pursue fair compensation. Here’s what you need to do to get started.
Call us or complete our contact form. We’re available 24/7. You don’t have to wait to get started. The sooner you call, the more opportunities we’ll have in your claims processes.
Meet with a team specialist and Josh at the same time. Most of our team speaks Spanish. You can schedule a free consultation with us virtually or in person. If you prefer to see us face to face, we’ll wait for you at our Albuquerque office—we can even come to your house! We want you to feel comfortable from the very first moment.
You’ll speak directly with Josh or another attorney on the team, when you need to. Additionally, a case manager from a team where most of our team speaks spanish will follow up with you at least twice a month. During the first month we’ll speak with you more frequently to make sure we have all the details we need to represent you in the best way.
Your case manager will work with you while Josh develops the legal strategy. We’ll do everything possible to resolve your case out of court. But if we have to go to trial, Josh will be the gringo who accompanies you every step of the way. We’ll also have a litigation legal assistant who will help you with any translation you need.

Frequently Asked Questions About Personal Injuries
Every family has a gringo who fights for their own.
How do you win a personal injury lawsuit?
We prove the negligence of the other party and the impact on your life. We include evidence of your expenses, your recovery, and the damage to your wellbeing and relationships.
At El Gringo Law, winning a personal injury case in New Mexico means proving the negligence of the responsible party and demonstrating how the injury has affected your life. Our attorneys gather detailed evidence, including medical records, bills, lost income, and documentation of property damage. We also highlight the non-economic impact, such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, and disruption to personal relationships. By presenting a clear and comprehensive case, we fight to secure the compensation you need to recover and move forward.
How much does a personal injury lawyer charge?
We work on contingency fees. We only get paid if we win your case.
At El Gringo Law, our personal injury lawyers in New Mexico work on a contingency fee basis. This means you do not pay any upfront fees when you hire our firm to represent you after an accident. Our attorney only gets paid if we successfully recover compensation for you through a settlement or a court verdict. This approach allows injured clients in Albuquerque and across New Mexico to pursue their claims without added financial stress.
By working on contingency, our attorney is fully invested in the outcome of your case. Our goal is to secure the maximum compensation possible for your injuries, medical expenses, lost income, and other damages. If we do not win your case, you owe us nothing for attorney fees. This structure ensures that our interests are aligned with yours and that you receive dedicated legal representation focused on results.
How much time do I have to file a claim?
It depends on the type of case. Time is limited, so don’t wait. Schedule a no-obligation case review today.
The amount of time you have to file a personal injury claim in New Mexico depends on the type of accident and the parties involved. Different deadlines may apply to car accidents, wrongful death cases, or claims against government entities. Because these time limits are strictly enforced, waiting too long can result in losing your right to pursue compensation. At El Gringo Law, our personal injury attorney helps clients understand their deadlines and take timely legal action. Scheduling a no-obligation case review as soon as possible can help protect your claim and preserve important evidence.
What happens if it was the fault of a public entity or the government?
We also handle personal injury claims against the government and before agencies like the New Mexico Department of Transportation.
If your injury was caused by the negligence of a public entity or government agency, special rules apply for filing a claim. At El Gringo Law, we have experience handling personal injury cases involving government entities, including accidents related to roads, highways, and public property. This often requires filing claims with agencies before pursuing court action. Our attorneys guide clients through these procedures, ensure deadlines are met, and work to secure fair compensation even when government liability is involved.
What type of compensation can I receive?
We fight for economic damages (medical bills, medical treatment, lost income, vehicle repair) and non-economic damages (pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of companionship).
At El Gringo Law, we help clients pursue full personal injury compensation in New Mexico. This includes economic damages such as medical bills, ongoing treatment, lost wages, and vehicle or property repair. We also fight for non-economic damages, including pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of companionship. Our attorney carefully evaluates each case to ensure every impact of your injury is accounted for, so you can focus on recovery while we work to secure the maximum compensation you deserve.
When you choose El Gringo Law, you’re not hiring just any injury law firm. You’re choosing real people who fight for real families in Albuquerque and all of New Mexico.
