My name is Alejandro Acosta – I am a Las Cruces personal injury attorney. I wrote this post to be a resource for folks who need to hire an injury attorney but don’t know anyone personally who can make a referral. Toward that end, below you will find a list of 7 personal injury lawyers who I personally endorse.
If you or your family were the victims of a personal injury accident, we understand what you’re going through. This often traumatic and frustrating experience can throw your life into chaos.
You are likely facing decreased income since the accident because you had to take time off work to recover from your injuries. Meanwhile, medical, utility, and credit card bills are mounting. You want justice but are likely overwhelmed and experiencing difficulty figuring out what to do next.
That is when many people start looking for legal help. And the first place many people turn to is their favorite online search engine. Searching for something like “best Las Cruces personal injury lawyer” will get many results. Some will be lists, directories, or individual law firms advertising their services. But how do you sort through so many results and find the right personal injury lawyer for you?
First, it is helpful to know that many of the directories you’ll be looking at are not based on merit. Instead, they are based on which law firm paid enough money to make it to the top of the list.
So today, we are going to help you sort through the chaos and give you our recommendations on top firms. These are firms we have had personal interactions with, have decades of experience, and have overall positive reviews on Google (4.6+ stars.

Why Contact a Personal Injury Attorney in Los Cruces?
You and your family are going through a difficult time, and bills are piling up. The physical, emotional, and psychological harm can take a toll on your resolve.
Insurance companies know this and will take advantage of it. They will offer low settlements or purposefully prolong the negotiation process to get you to jump at a low offer, even though it does not adequately compensate you for your losses.
A personal injury lawyer will stand up to insurance companies and can help you get adequately compensated for the harm you have suffered.
Your lawyer can do the following:
- Collect evidence,
- Interview witnesses,
- Gather police accident reports,
- Examine medical records,
- Hire expert witnesses,
- Negotiate with insurance companies, and
- Represent clients in the courtroom and at trial.
Trying to do all of the above with little legal knowledge and dwindling resources can be next to impossible. Let a good personal injury lawyer help you in your time of need.
