• Wrongful Death
  Every family responds to the unexpected loss of a loved one in its own way. Many people find that their feelings and perspectives about the death of a family member change as they go through their own adjustment process. At The Law Office of Brian K Branch, we think it's important to let families move through the stages of a hard transition at their own pace and in their own ways, but at the same time, you should know that the law has its own timetable. If you don't seek legal advice in time to allow for the effective investigation and presentation of wrongful death claims in negligence cases, you might lose important rights under New Mexico law.

• Personal Injury
  Car accidents can be devastating events for victims and families. Car accident survivors often face a long road to recovery following a serious accident. To make matters more stressful, victims and families often find themselves shouldering high medical bills and expenses. Sometimes insurance companies fail to offer adequate settlements.

Victims may choose to pursue a personal injury lawsuit to protect their rights and the rights of their loved ones.
